Mischmetal is an alloy of rare earth elements in various naturally occurring proportions.
It is also called cerium mischmetal, rare earth mischmetal or misch metal.
A typical composition includes approximately 50% cerium and 25% lanthanum, with small amounts of neodymium and praseodymium.
One of the oldest uses of lanthanum metals is in the production of misch metal. Misch metal is an alloy that produces sparks when struck. One application of misch metal is in the manufacture of cigarette lighters. A new application of lanthanum glass is in making optical fibers. An optical fiber is a wire-like material made of glass. It carries light in the same way a copper wire carries electricity. Optical fibers are becoming more popular as methods for carrying audio, video, and digital messages. In many cases, optical fibers have replaced copper wires for this purpose.One of the most important uses of lanthanum compounds is in carbon arc lamps. Carbon arc lamp a lamp for producing very bright white lightLanthanum is used to treat hyperphosphatemia (too much phosphate in the blood) in patients with kidney disease who are on dialysis
It's a transition metal.
Gold is a metal. Also classified as a "Non-Ferrous metal".
No, Bismuth is a metal
Rb (rubidium) is a metal.
Cerium
The element that is the principal ingredient in misch metals is cerium with most misch metals consisting of about 50% cerium.
cerium
Neodymium is a rare metal found on earth. It is found in misch metal, and makes up about eighteen percent of it.

Mischmetal is an alloy. It is composed of half cerium, a quarter lanthanum, and small amounts of neodymium and prasedymium.
