Graphite and Manganese :)
nope, matter of fact i tested this out in chemistry class yesterday and the results say no
Protein foods--proteins all contain phosphorus.
It is mined, and extracted from: * pyrolusite (MnO2), * braunite (Mn2+Mn3+6SiO12), * psilomelane (Ba(Mn2+)(Mn4+)8O16(OH)4), and * to a lesser extent as rhodochrosite (MnCO3). The ore is processed similarly to iron ore to make steel, but requires higher temperatures.
The chemical symbol Mn stands for manganese.
The manganese sulfide contain manganese and sulfur.
Manganese nodules contain manganese, iron and nickel.
Manganese has 25 electrons and protons; also 30 neutrons.
