Dysprosium is a chemical element with the symbol Dy and atomic number 66. It is a rare-earth element with a metallic silver luster.
Praseodymium is a chemical element with the symbol Pr and atomic number 59. It is traditionally considered to be one of the rare-earth metals.
Scandium is a chemical element with the symbol Sc and atomic number 21. A silvery-white metallic d-block element, it has historically been classified as a rare-earth element.
Astatine is a chemical element with the symbol At and atomic number 85. It is the rarest naturally occurring element in the Earth's crust, occurring only as the decay product of various heavier elements.
Neodymium is a chemical element with the symbol Nd and atomic number 60. It is a rare-earth element. It is a hard, slightly malleable silvery metal that quickly tarnishes in air and moisture.
Terbium is a chemical element with the symbol Tb and atomic number 65. It is a silvery-white, rare earth metal that is malleable, ductile, and soft enough to be cut with a knife.
Gadolinium is a chemical element with the symbol Gd and atomic number 64. Gadolinium is a silvery-white metal when oxidation is removed. It is only slightly malleable and is a ductile rare-earth element.
Yttrium is a chemical element with the symbol Y and atomic number 39. It is a silvery-metallic transition metal chemically similar to the lanthanides and has often been classified as a "rare-earth element".
Carbon (from Latin: carbo "coal") is a chemical element with symbol C and atomic number 6. On the periodic table, it is the first (row 2) of six elements in column (group 14), which have in common the composition of their outer electron shell. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent - making four electrons available to form covalent chemical bonds. Three isotopes occur naturally, 12C and 13C being stable while 14C is radioactive, decaying with a half-life of about 5,730 years. Carbon is one of the few elements known since antiquity.
Beryllium is a chemical element with the symbol Be and atomic number 4. It is a relatively rare element in the universe.
Tungsten, or Wolfram, is a chemical element with the symbol W and atomic number 74. It is a rare metal found naturally on Earth almost exclusively combined with other elements in chemical compounds rather than alone.
Promethium is a chemical element with the symbol Pm and atomic number 61. All of its isotopes are radioactive; it is extremely rare, with only about 500–600 grams naturally occurring in Earth's crust at any given time.
Sherlock Olmos decides to dig deeper into dark corner of this great house to investigate the suspicious behavior of some chemical elements. The exchange of electrons and the characteristics of hydrogen, fluorine gas, and the noble gases are the primary subjects of his investigation. Part of Chemistry: Solved by Sherlock Olmos Series.
Iridium is a rare element used to light up cell phones and TVs. However, researchers have found a way to use a more common element to power electrical devices: copper. Researchers are also developing a better treatment for osteoarthritis through nanotechnology. Other segments include research into specialized metabolites and devices that translate sign language. Part of the "4 Awesome Discoveries You Probably Didn't Hear About This Week" series.
Phosphorus is a chemical element with the symbol P and atomic number 15. Elemental phosphorus exists in two major forms, white phosphorus and red phosphorus, but because it is highly reactive, phosphorus is never found as a free element on Earth.
Every element of earth's ecosystem is needed to maintain the delicate balance that supports all life forms. Groups of people and organizations work to keep and even to restore this balance. Mentions often how life on earth is interconnected and that environmental responsibility is everyone's business.
Using light as a probe, scientists found innovative ways to make inferences about the inner structure of the atom. In this unit, scientists discuss the change from believing the atom was a single indivisible particle to later understanding the atom is composed of subatomic parts. This new picture of matter lead to the development of the quantum model of the atom, as well as ways to identify traces of chemical elements, whether on earth, in the sun, or in a distant galaxy. Part of the series Chemistry: Challenges And Solutions.
Calcium is a chemical element with the symbol Ca and atomic number 20. It is an alkaline earth metal.
