| 1. | Minerals that are pure selenide or selenate compounds are known but rare.
|
| 2. | Oxidation of this anion gives sodium selenate, Na 2 SeO 4.
|
| 3. | In strongly acidic conditions, the hydrogen selenate ion,, is formed.
|
| 4. | Selenate is the least reduced, followed by selenite, and elemental selenium.
|
| 5. | Selenate is the form required by organisms that need selenium as a micronutrient.
|
| 6. | In general, selenate salts resemble sulfate salts, but are more soluble.
|
| 7. | Many selenate salts have the same crystal structure as the corresponding sulfate salts.
|
| 8. | How sodium selenate specifically activates ceramide-activated PP2A has not been well studied.
|
| 9. | Selenate and other forms of selenium are highest in areas where ancient seas have evaporated.
|
| 10. | Ceramide is the defining activator of CAPP while other activators include theophylline and sodium selenate.
