This element is the metal strontium (Sr).
A mineral found near Strontian in Scotland was found to contain a new element in 1790 by A crawford.
The element Strontium was isolated from a mineral called Strontianite and was so called because it was first discovered near the village of Strontian in Scotland.
Strontium - (Sr) is named after Strontian (pronounced Strawn-TEE-an, not Stronshan) a village on the Ardgour peninsula in the West Highlands.
STRONTIUMStrontium (pronounced /ˈstrɒnʃiəm/ STRON-shee-əm, /ˈstrɒntiəm/ STRON-tee-əm, or /ˈstrɒnʃəm/ STRON-shəm) is a chemical element with the symbol Sr and the atomic number 38. An alkaline earth metal, strontium is a soft silver-white or yellowish metallic element that is highly reactive chemically. The metal turns yellow when exposed to air. It occurs naturally in the minerals celestine and strontianite. The 90Sr isotope is present in radioactive fallout and has a half-life of 28.90 years. Both strontium and strontianite are named after Strontian, a village in Scotland near which the mineral was first discovered.
There 38 protons in strontium. Strontium is No. 38 in the Periodic Table.. This indicates the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom of strontium . Strontium is named after the Scottish village, Strontian, in the Highlands of Scotland, where it was first discovered.
Strontium was named by Humphry Davy (inventor of the mining safety lamp that bears his name) in 1808. He isolated the element by electolysis and named it after Strontian, a mining village in Scotland where it was first found.
Niobium was discovered first.
Element number 6 was one of the first elements discovered, so it is not widely known who discovered it.
yes i think it was
helium
potassium
Hydrogen was the first.
