By default sorting is in ascending order. Collections.sort(list); method sort the list items in ascending order. Collections.reverse(list); method sort the list items in descending order. Same as you can sort the arrays also, Let refer the below code snippet, which sort the string array contains name of cities.orting using Comparator. Let have look to sort Employee list using implementation of Comparator interface. If you want to sort object other than their natural ordering at that time we use Comparator.
Thallium is a soft, malleable gray metal that was previously widely used in rat poisons and insecticides. Thallium itself and compounds containing the element are highly toxic. It is particularly dangerous because compounds containing thallium are colorless, odorless, and tasteless.hallium is a soft, malleable gray metal that was previously widely used in rat poisons and insecticides.

In the presence of water, the poisonous thallium hydroxide (TlOH) is formed. Thallium dissolves slowly in hydrochloric acid and dilute sulfuric acid and dissolves rapidly in nitric acid. Thallium sulfate, which is odorless and colorless, was used as a rat poison and as an insecticide. This use has been discontinued in some countries, including the USA. Thallium sulfide is used in photocells because its electrical conductivity increases on exposure to infrared light. Thallium oxide is used to make glass that has a high index of refraction.
