The element Krypton's name derived from the Greek term, Kryptos, meaning hidden/secret/covered. Krypton is a noble gas, meaning it does not usually react to other gasses. It is atomic number 36. Krypton is associated with lights. It is commonly used in fluorescent lights and sometimes neon lights. Less than 1% of the atmosphere is made up of krypton gas.
Fun Fact: Krypton is a planet from SUPERMAN:)
The element krypton is named after the Greek word κρυπτός(kryptos) meaning "the hidden one".
Krypton is named after the element krypton, which is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. It was named by its discoverer, Sir William Ramsay, in 1898. The name is derived from the Greek word "kryptos," meaning hidden or concealed.
from kryptos, meaning "hidden" -->From a liter of lquid air, William Ramsay and Morris William Traver (the discoverers of krypton) distilled Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Argon. On May 30, 1898, they observed the spectra of the remaining 25cm3 of the original liter. Bight yellow and brilliant green lines suggested a new element which, because it remained hidden in the liquid, they named krypton, from the Greek word kryptos, meaning "hidden".
From the Greek term, of Kryptons meaning "hidden"
The symbol of the element Krypton is Kr. The symbol of the element was obtained by simply taking the first and the second letter of the element.
Krypton is named after the fact that it is hidden in trace amounts in the atmosphere. Its name is derived from the Greek word "kryptos," or "the hidden one. "
The two chemists that discovered Krypton, discovered it accidentally while evaporating liquid air. The greek word for hidden is "kryptos". That is where the name Krypton came from.
Krypton is from the Greek word Kryptos (hidden)
From the Greek kryptos, meaning "hidden"
The horizontal rows are called periods. Krypton (atomic number 36) is the last element in the period 4.
Ahaha. You might be thinking of the Superman Krypton indeed, but you won't find any Krypton ore on Earth. Krypton is actually a noble gas at room temperature. It's colorless and odorless, also.
Krypton Tetrafluoride
Krypton is isolated through a process of fractional distillation of liquid air. This process involves the cooling and condensation of air to obtain its various components based on their boiling points, with krypton being separated as a distinct element during this procedure.
Yes, krypton is a real element on the periodic table. It is a noble gas with the atomic number 36 and symbol Kr. Krypton is odorless, colorless, and tasteless, and is used in lighting, lasers, and in some specialized photographic flash lamps.

Yes, krypton is a real element on the periodic table. It is a noble gas with the atomic number 36 and symbol Kr. Krypton is odorless, colorless, and tasteless, and is used in lighting, lasers, and in some specialized photographic flash lamps.
First off, Kryptonite isn't real. It's called Krypton. The symbol for KRYPTON is Kr
Kal-El--Superman's real name--was born on the planet Krypton. He was shot into space by his parents before the planet exploded. Thus, radioactive fragments of the plant Krypton are called "Kryptonite."
There IS an actual element in the Periodic Table called Krypton, but the rocks called Kryptonite are named after Superman's home planet, also called Krypton. They are the only remnants left over after that planet exploded.
The real actual element is krypton, it is a noble gas (#36 on the periodic table of elements). In Superman stories the planet is called Krypton, and the green crystals of doom are called Kryptonite.
supermum and superdad
No, krypton is not a compound. It is an element on the periodic table with the symbol Kr and atomic number 36. It is a noble gas that exists as a single atom.
