A soft, silvery, malleable and ductile metal that belongs to the rare-earth metals. It has the atomic number 59 and is the third member of the lanthanide series. Praseodymium has magnetic, electrical, chemical, and optical properties. It is too reactive to be found in native form, and pure praseodymium metal slowly develops a green oxide coating when exposed to air.
