Magnesium is the third most abundant element dissolved in sea water. This preponderance of magnesium is related to the fact that it is easily built up in supernova stars from a sequential addition of three helium nuclei to carbon (which in turn is made from three helium nuclei).

POTASSIUM: Potassium is a chemical element. It has the symbol K and atomic number 19. MAGNESIUM: Magnesium is a chemical element with the symbol Mg, the atomic number 12, and an atomic mass of 24.31. Magnesium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth by mass. It constitutes about 2% of the Earth's crust by mass, and it is the third most abundant element dissolved in seawater.
The third most abundant element in the universe is Oxygen.
Magnesium is a chemical element with the symbol Mg, atomic number 12 and common oxidation number +2. It is an alkaline earth metal and the eighth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, where it constitutes about 2% by mass,and ninth in the known Universe as a whole. This preponderance of magnesium is related to the fact that it is easily built up in supernova stars from a sequential addition of three helium nuclei to carbon (which in turn is made from three helium nuclei). Magnesium ion's high solubility in water helps ensure that it is the third most abundant element dissolved in seawater.
O stands for the element Oxygen. It is a nonmetallic element and the third most abundant element in the universe.
oxygen (following hydrogen and helium)
Aluminum 7.5 to 8.1%
Manganese is not a rare earth element. The rare earths range from Lanthanum (atomic number 57) to Hafnium (70) and Actinium (89) to Rutherfordium (102). Manganese is atomic number 25. Looking at the periodic table, you will see two rows at the bottom named Lanthanoids and Actinoids - those are the rare earths.
The most abundant element in the universe is hydrogen, which makes up about 3/4 of all matter. Helium makes up most of the remaining 25%. Oxygen is the third most abundant element in the universe.
Element 18 is the noble gas argon. It is the third most abundant gas in the atmosphere at 0.934%.
As the third most abundant element, oxygen in the air is made by plants and algae.
Oxygen is the most abundant element in the earth's crust and is not in the boron family. Aluminum is in the boron family and is the third most abundant element in the earth's crust. Refer to the related link for a list of the 10 most abundant elements in the earth's crust and their percentages.
