Promethium was identified and prepared for the first time in 1945, at Oak Ridge, USA by Jacob A. Marinsky, Lawrence E. Glendenin, Charles D.Coryell, Harold G. Richter.
Promethium is an element and does not have a charge. As it has only be found in trace quantities, its chemistry has not been fully investigated. It has been anticipated that the likely charge when it forms compounds would be +3.
After the Pauling electronegativity promethium is a reactive metal but the chemistry of Pm is only superficially known.The valence of ions in solution is +3. Promethium compounds known: halides, oxides, nitrates, sulfates, hydroxides etc.
Yes, promethium is a metallic element that exhibits a silvery luster. It belongs to the lanthanide series of the periodic table and is known for its radioactive properties. Due to its rarity and instability, promethium is not commonly encountered in everyday applications.

Promethium bromide contain promethium and bromine.
Yes, Promethium is a radioactive element that is paramagnetic, meaning it is weakly attracted to magnetic fields.
Promethium is not flammable.
Promethium salts, oxides, and halides are common compounds of promethium. Promethium oxide (Pm2O3) and promethium chloride (PmCl3) are among the compounds that can be formed with promethium.
Yes. Promethium is a solid.
Promethium is not flammable.
Promethium is a metal.
Promethium has 61 protons.
