francium plus (+) Astatine *
The atomic radius of francium and caesium are considered to be equal.
Astatine has 125 neutrons
Francium was named after France, the country it was dicovered in.
what is a common compound of astatine
The boiling point of astatine is 337 0C.
All these elements are natural radioactive elements.
Caesium and francium, in group one or in group 7 iodine or astatine.
The 3 least abundant elements are Francium (Fr), Astatine (At),and Plutonium (Pu). Francium and Astatine come from the decay of Thorium (Th) and Uranium (U), are much more abundant. At any one time in the entire earth's crust there is only 30 grams of Francium and 25 grams of Astatine. Plutonium is only found in Uranium minerals. The amount of Plutonium is microscopic. Here are the 3 least abundant elements. Lowest 3. 89. Francium 90. Astatine 91. Plutonium
Nowhere. Francium is the second rarest element in the Earth's crust, next to Astatine. There is only 20-30g of it in the Earth's crust at any one time.
Examples: californium, americium, curium, iridium, rhenium, osmium, palladium, francium, astatine, technetium.
The atomic radius of francium and caesium are considered to be equal.
Francium name by the Curies after france. Yes it is rare and radioactive.
Francium should be a solid at standard temperature and pressure, as is cesium, the element next above it in its periodic table column. Note, however, that francium is so highly radioactive that it may be difficult to maintain any actual sample of it at standard temperature and pressure.
Francium (pronounced /ˈfrænsiəm/, FRAN-see-əm), formerly known as eka-caesium and actinium K,[1] is a chemical element that has the symbol Fr and atomic number 87. It has one of the lowest electronegativity of all known elements, and is the second rarest naturally occurring element (after astatine). Francium is a highly radioactive metal that decays into astatine, radium, and radon. As an alkali metal, it has one valence electron.
Astatine is an element with the symbol At.
Astatine, an extremely rare halogen which no-one really have experienced. It is so rare, that if you dug up the whole crust of the earth, you would find what corresponds to an amount equal of your thumb. It is also highly radioactive, which makes it abit uninteresting chemically.
It is one of the two decay products of actinium-227. It decays into astatine-218 approximately 22 minutes after its creation...explaining why there's only about an ounce of it in existence on the earth at any particular moment.
