Unlike oxides of phosphorus and arsenic, these oxides are amphoteric, do not form well-defined oxoacids, and react with acids to form antimony salts.ģ is unknown, but the conjugate base sodium antimonite ( [NaĦ. Antimony also forms a mixed-valence oxide, antimony tetroxide ( SbĤ), which features both Sb(III) and Sb(V). Antimony pentoxide ( Sbġ0) can be formed only by oxidation with concentrated nitric acid. In the gas phase, the molecule of the compound is SbĦ, but it polymerizes upon condensing. The +5 oxidation state is more stable.Īntimony trioxide is formed when antimony is burnt in air. : 758 Isotopes Īntimony compounds are often classified according to their oxidation state: Sb(III) and Sb(V). This relatively close packing leads to a high density of 6.697 g/cm 3, but the weak bonding between the layers leads to the low hardness and brittleness of antimony. The nearest and next-nearest neighbors form an irregular octahedral complex, with the three atoms in each double layer slightly closer than the three atoms in the next. 166) whose layers consist of fused, ruffled, six-membered rings. Įlemental antimony adopts a layered structure ( space group R 3m No. Above this temperature and in ambient light, this metastable allotrope transforms into the more stable black allotrope. The yellow allotrope of antimony is the most unstable it has been generated only by oxidation of stibine (SbH 3) at −90 ☌. At 100 ☌, it gradually transforms into the stable form. It has the same crystal structure as red phosphorus and black arsenic it oxidizes in air and may ignite spontaneously. Black antimony is formed upon rapid cooling of antimony vapor. When scratched with a sharp implement, an exothermic reaction occurs and white fumes are given off as metallic antimony forms when rubbed with a pestle in a mortar, a strong detonation occurs. A rare explosive form of antimony can be formed from the electrolysis of antimony trichloride. When slowly cooled, molten antimony crystallizes into a trigonal cell, isomorphic with the gray allotrope of arsenic. Elemental antimony is a brittle, silver-white, shiny metalloid. Antimony is resistant to attack by acids.įour allotropes of antimony are known: a stable metallic form, and three metastable forms (explosive, black, and yellow). Coins of antimony were issued in China's Guizhou province in 1931 durability was poor, and minting was soon discontinued. : 758Īntimony is a silvery, lustrous gray metalloid with a Mohs scale hardness of 3, which is too soft to mark hard objects. Antimony is stable in air at room temperature, but reacts with oxygen if heated to produce antimony trioxide, Sb 2O 3. In accordance with periodic trends, it is more electronegative than tin or bismuth, and less electronegative than tellurium or arsenic. Antimony is used as a dopant in semiconductor devices.Ĭrystal structure common to Sb, AsSb and gray AsĪntimony is a member of group 15 of the periodic table, one of the elements called pnictogens, and has an electronegativity of 2.05. Antimony trioxide is a prominent additive for halogen-containing flame retardants. It improves the rigidity of lead-alloy plates in lead–acid batteries. The largest applications for metallic antimony are in alloys with lead and tin, which have improved properties for solders, bullets, and plain bearings. The industrial methods for refining antimony from stibnite are roasting followed by reduction with carbon, or direct reduction of stibnite with iron. The earliest known description of the metal in the West was written in 1540 by Vannoccio Biringuccio.Ĭhina is the largest producer of antimony and its compounds, with most production coming from the Xikuangshan Mine in Hunan.

![]() As Time magazine put it, "Like the best popular art, The Green Mile has the courage of its cornier convictions. Maybe it's a little too cute, maybe the pathos is laid on a little thick, but it's hard to resist the colorful personalities and simple wonders of this supernatural tale. The charming narrator is an old man looking back on the events, decades later. The setting is the small "death house" of a Southern prison in 1932. This novel taps into what Stephen King does best: character-driven storytelling. Boldly signed by Stephen King on the title page in Manchester, Vermont.

"What sticks most in my mind was his devotion to his craft and the strides he made as an artist during that time, which was beyond inspiring to those of us who took the journey with him. "Our experience making The Green Mile together was immersive and incredible, a once-in-a-lifetime journey," said director Frank Darabont of Duncan after the actor's death. ![]() His performance earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor and resulted in the roles coming quickly for Clarke in following years until his death in 2012. At the time of his casting, he had appeared in movies like Friday and Armageddon, but it was really The Green Mile that established Clarke as a bona fide Hollywood star. The full cast of The Green Mile was pretty solid, though Michael Clarke Duncan really shined as John Coffey, turning the role into one of cinema's most memorable characters. Michael Clarke Duncan did an excellent job, so I think I made the right decision, because he did way better than I could've done. But the guy who played it did a wonderful job.

According to this theory pleasure is always intrinsically good for a person and less pleasure is always intrinsically bad. Epicurus held the hedonistic view that the primary intrinsic good for a person is pleasure meaning that pleasure is always good for a person in and of itself, irrespective of the cause or context of the pleasure. The roots of Hedonism can be traced back at least as far as Epicurus (341–270 BC) and Ancient Greece. Whereas other theories might focus on fulfilling desires people have, or an objective list of things such as friendship and health. ![]() Therefore, the more pleasure that a person experiences in their life then the better their life goes, and vice versa. What separates Hedonism from other theories of well-being is that the hedonist believes that what defines a successful life is directly related to the amount of pleasure in that life no other factors are relevant at all. Hedonism is a theory of well-being - a theory of how well a life is going for the person living that life. Hedonism, the Case for Pleasure as a Good ApproachĪll that a person considers to be pleasurable When we put various combinations of the above together, we get distinct, but similar versions of consequentialism. This gives us guidance in a situation with no good options, like the trolley case where we have to choose between allowing 5 innocents to die on a runaway trolley or saving the 5, but killing 1 innocent bystander in the process. Some, but not all, versions of consequentialism hold that it is not good enough to merely have a net positive of pleasure through our actions, but rather we must choose the action that will bring about the greatest amount of overall pleasure. We’ve mentioned maximization in our discussion so far. If we include animals in the moral analysis, we would not eat the steak and tip our server generously. If we expand the morally relevant community to include all humans, we should eat the steak and tip our server generously. If we only take into moral account ourselves, we should eat the steak, tip our server zero dollars. Take the notion of preparing a steak dinner. Each of these possible answers to the “for whom” question will dramatically change our moral analysis. See the chapter on Animal Rights by Eduardo Salazar. This would widen our pool to include at least some of the animals. Perhaps we expand the maximization of the good for all beings who can experience pleasure and suffering. Perhaps we should only maximize happiness for ourselves only, or maybe we maximize the good of all humans. ![]() Likewise, there are various ways we could answer the “for whom?” question. However, if we use long-term rational well-being as the good we are trying to maximize, we would choose to value paying for college and attending sometimes difficult classes instead of the more immediate pleasure of the steak dinner. If we hold all pleasures to be equal, we could form a strong argument for going to that steak dinner instead of putting it towards a class you need to graduate, earning a degree which will develop your character, widen your awareness of the world, and better prepare you to navigate our society successfully. Let’s imagine you receive a fifty-dollar bill for your birthday and want to go out for a nice steak dinner. You can imagine how different the moral analysis would be depending upon the definition of the good. For instance, we might say that the good is “any and all pleasures” or “only long-term rational well being”. There are multiple ways we can answer those questions.
