What should I do if I have had skin exposure to the sap from morning glory vines?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I don’t know much about this plant, but if you’ve introduced a toxin into your system trans-dermal, there may not be much you can do. Drink lots of water. Avoid taking anything that will put additional strain on your liver (alcohol or any over the counter drugs). Be sure to know the latin name of the plant you were exposed to. Morning Glory…. well… it can mean a variety of plants and scrubs, I think, especially if you live in Southern Cali. If you do end up needing medical treatment, this may be important.

Last Answer : molecular weight of CO ~ 28 (12+16), while the main ingredients of air are O2 = 32 (2 16) and N2 = 28; mixed together, that's heavier than CO. Alone from that, I'd say CO is lighter.
