Germanium: Germanium In Freiberg, Germany

The physical properties of group 1: The physical properties of group 1 are that they have low melting points and boiling points, in addition I would like to say that they all are alkali metals which means that some of metals will have a lower melting point then the other one. Rubidium and caesium have one of the lowest melting points which means that they will burn very easily. However some of these metals have higher melting points than rubidium and caesium which happens to be lithium.

Magnesium is a chemical element with symbol Mg and atomic number 12. Magnesium is a shiny

Lecoq de Boisbaudran theorized that with gallium supposedly having an atomic number of 31, it could be that gallium is contained within zinc, atomic number thirty.

Mercury, (its chemical symbol Hg), comes from the Greek word hydrargyrum, meaning, water silver, although T is commonly named as quick silver. Mercuries atom number is 80 and its mass number is 200.59. It is the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature (around 20-25 degrees Celsius).

1. Ancestry Discovered in approximately 3000 BC, silver is one of the oldest elements known to man. Why was it so easy for miners in Turkey and Greece to discover, one may ask? Silver is also one of the most abundant elements found on earth and was not difficult to come across when mining mountains and rocks. (Silver, 1)

My element is Silver. The atomic number of silver (Ag) is 47. Silver is in group 11 and period 5. The mass number of Silver is 107, and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d^10 5s^1. Silver was one of the first five metals discovered and used by humans. Silver’s melting point is 1,763.2 degrees fahrenheit. Silver is commonly used to make mirrors, as it's the best known reflector of light. Silver is also commonly in silverware, where the appearance is important. Silver is most commonly used in jewelry, where sterling silver is 92.5% silver.

Germany became a country in January 18, 1871. Germany is in Western and Central Europe, with Denmark bordering to the north, Poland and the Czech Republic to the east, Austria and Switzerland to the south, France and Luxembourg to the southwest, and Belgium and the Netherlands to the northwest.Berlin, its capital, is home to thriving art and nightlife scenes, iconic Brandenburg Gate and many sites relating to WWII. Munich is known for its Oktoberfest and cavernous beer halls, including 16th-century Hofbräuhaus. Frankfurt, with its skyscrapers, houses the European Central Bank.

In Berlin some citizen started the German Historical Museum. There is a law which Germans cannot display anything having to do with the Nazi dictatorship. The Museum displays Naziism without breaking the laws though. There are two sides in the debate of if the Germans were "mugged" and forced to fight WWII or if they wanted to go along with their leader and fight. I believe that the Germans were not corralled by Hitler as much as the Germans elevated Hitler because the German people were willing to carry out his demands, in 1995 the Germans did not take responsibility for the murders at Auschwitz, and in the 21st century with the currently economic problems troubling German it would be likely that the German people would vote for someone like Hitler.

In 1875, Paul-Emile Lecoq de Boisbaudran has discovered an element, Gallium. This element had been discovered in the country of France. Gallium is also known as “Ga” on the periodic table.

Mercury is an element on the periodic table. It’s element symbol is Hg. It is also known as quicksilver. On the periodic table, it is group number 12 and period number 6. It has an atomic number of 80. Its atomic mass is 200.59 . Mercury is a natural occurring element that is very dangerous to humans. It is a transition metal. It was discovered by the ancient Chinese and Hindus before 2000 BC. It is a thick, shiny, and silver liquid that is extremely toxic. It is a poor conductor of heat and a fair conductor of electricity. It has a freezing point of -38.33 Celsius and a boiling point of 356.73 Celsius. It has the lowest boiling and freezing point of any other metal. It is also the only element that can turn liquid at room temperature.

The following report I have put together is on Chromium. The question you might be asking yourself, is what exactly is chromium? Well, Chromium is a hard, polished gray metal. When at room temperature, it is a solid. The atomic number of Chromium is 24 and is in group six on the periodic table which makes it a transitional metal. In the following report, I will cover the discovery of the element and the many uses of of it.

Xenon, what a strange word to call an element perhaps this word defines the element to perfection. The word Xenon comes from the Greek Word ξένον which means “Stranger”. From the 1900’s to the era we live in today this Noble Gas has been used for numerous things and has transformed the way humans live. Cameras, vehicles, disinfection, curing the mind, and several lamps are some subjects that Xenon takes part of and plays a big role in. Xenon could be the most important Nobel Gas there is in the periodic table.

Boron is one of 118 elements on the Periodic Table and is in everyday life. Boron has a lot of facts to learn about such as, “Who found or created this element?” or, “What uses do this element have?”. Out of all the elements, Boron is an interesting element that stands out from others because it is a powder. This element is also a necessary ingredient that is used in soap. From all the elements on the periodic table, Boron is a unique element in a lot of ways such as the fact that Boron is a metalloid; metalloids are not very common in the periodic table. In this essay, Boron is in a number of questions that will be answered. Boron is an unquestionably interesting element.

My element is Boron. Boron compounds such as borax have been known and used by ancient cultures for thousands of years. Boron was first partially isolated in 1808 by French chemists Joseph L. Gay-Lussac and L. J. Thénard and independently by Sir Humphry Davy in London. Davy first tried to produce Boron by electrolysis of boric acid, but was not satisfied with how the results turned out. In 1909, American chemist Ezekiel Weintraub was able to produce 99% pure Boron, by reducing Boron halides with hydrogen. In 2004, Jiuhua Chen and Vladimir L. Solozhenko produced a new form of Boron, but were not certain of its structure. Boron is a tough element, very hard, and very resistant to heat. In its crystalline form, it is the second hardest element of all the

Germanium weighs 72.61lbs, and the boiling point is 2830 degree Celsius. In addition, germanium has 9 isotopes, and the atomic mass i 72.59. However, “the element germanium is both metals and nonmetals. To be more precise, germanium is a very important element that light and shiny.
