Is the element fermium luster

Answer 1

Francium has a metallic appearance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francium).

Due to its extremely short half life, no one has ever seen francium in large enough amounts to be visible. The largest amount of francium ever collected was 10,000 atoms of it.

If one were to see a piece of francium however, it would probably appear as a brightly glowing object due to its high rate of decay.</P>

Answer 2

Fermium is typically prepared in only at most microgram quantities where lustre might be difficult to observe. However, as one of the metallic elements in the actinide series it is very likely that, given a sample of sufficient size, fermium would prove to have a metallic lustre.

Answer 3

Fermium is a radioactive metal and does not exhibit luster in its natural state due to its high reactivity and short half-life. It is typically produced in laboratories and studied for its properties rather than for its appearance.

Answer 4

At standard conditions, fluorine is a diatomic gas. Fluorine will crystallize at low temperatures and high pressure and display "crystalline luster".

Answer 5

Francium ia solid metal at room temperature, with a metallic appearance.

Answer 6

Probably a metallic appearance.
