What else can I help you with?
Do promethium have odor?
Promethium itself does not have a distinct odor as it is a rare earth metal. However, some of its compounds may have a metallic smell when they react with other chemicals.
Is Promethium magetic?
Yes, Promethium is a radioactive element that is paramagnetic, meaning it is weakly attracted to magnetic fields.
What are the names given to element with atomic number 58 to 71?
58: Cerium59: Praseodymium60: Neodymium61: Promethium62: Samarium63: Europium64: Gadolinium65: Terbium66: Dysprosium67: Holmium68: Erbium69: Thulium70: Ytterbium71: Lutetium
What is the normal phase of promethium?
Promethium is typically a solid at room temperature, specifically a metal.
Is promethium flammable?
Yes, promethium is flammable. It can ignite spontaneously in air and react with oxygen to produce heat and flames. Special precautions are necessary when handling promethium to prevent accidental fires.
Which group does promethium belong?
The lanthanides, but it does not fit in as well
Are lanthanides radioactive?
Some lanthanides are radioactive, such as promethium. However, most lanthanides found in nature are stable.
Series including cerium praseodyium neodymium and promethium is called?
This family of elements is called after IUPAC rules - lanthanoids.
What element is the first member of the lanthanide series?
Most of the lanthanides are silvery-gray metals. Check the Related Links section for pictures of all of them.
What series are called elements 57 to 70?
Elements from atomic number 57 (Lanthanum) to 71 (Lutetium) are called the Lanthanides. Lanthanide means "like Lanthanum" and so, the Lanthanides are based on Lanthanum. Only one of the Lanthanides is radioactive: Promethium (Pm - No. 61)
Which is in the lanthanides family on the periodic table?
Promethium (Pm) Apex
What is similar to promethium?
Promethium has similar chemical properties as cerium and other lanthanoids.
What are other names for promethium?
Promethium is today the unique name for this chemical element.
Is promethium a metalloid metal or nonmetal?
Yes, Promethium, element 61 is a metal just like the other members of the lanthanide group. Kilogram quantities of the material have been prepared and the metal purified in a method similar to the preparation of several other lanthanides, calcium reduction (calciothermic reduction) with a second vacuum distillation step to remove calcium (reducing agent) and magnesium (crucible material) impurities.
Can promethium be refined?
Of course: promethium is separated from other fission products of uranium etc.
What are the 2 words that describe the classification of the 17 chemical elements with the numbers 57-71?
Elements from atomic number 57 (Lanthanum) to 71 (Lutetium) are called the Lanthanides. Lanthanide means "like Lanthanum" and so, the Lanthanides are based on Lanthanum. Only one of the Lanthanides is radioactive: Promethium (Pm - No. 61)
