praseodymium is the 59th chemical on the Periodic Table of the elements. Praseodymium is a soft, silvery, malleable and ductile metal in the lanthanide group.

it does develop a green oxide coating that spalls off when exposed to air, exposing more metal to oxidation --- a centimeter sized sample of Pr completely oxidizes within a year.

Who discovered Praseodymium?

The person who discovered Praseodymium is Carl Auer, Freiherr Von Welsbach.I hope this helps I had an element project and I found this person for the element so I hope this helps a lot. ^.^- Here's some more info on Praseodymium:Element's Symbol: PrElement's Name: PraseodymiumAtomic Number: 59Atomic Mass: 140.90765 amuClassification: Rare EarthDensity: 6.77 g/cm3 (cubed) Boiling Point: 3127.0 C Melting Point: 935.0 C Person who discovered it: Carl Auer, Freiherr Von WelsbachYear Discovered: 1885Name Orgin: From the Greek word meaning "Prasios" (green) and "didymos" (twin.) If you put it together, you get "Green Twin"Uses: Praseodymium is used to color galsses, and enamals.Cost: 170$/100g- I also had a element project. I had to scramble all around the place for this element, now you don't have to. Hopefully I didn't miss anything BYE!!!!!!!!


What element are found in pebbles?

The major rock forming elements are oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium. Many other metallic and non-metallic elements are also found in rocks. Depends on the rock.


What elements are metals?

Most of the elements are one kind or another of metal. Metals are those substances which have metallic properties like conductivity, hardness, conductor of heat and current generally, posses some shearing strength, has some specific spring constant etc.how ever there are exceptions of these properties.In the field of astronomy, all elements other than the lightest two - Hydrogen & Helium - are called metals.In chemistry the metals are often grouped together in different classes:Alkali metals:Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Caesium, FranciumAlkaline earth metals:Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, RadiumTransition metals:Zinc, Molybdenum, Cadmium, Scandium, Titanium, Vanadium, Chromium, Manganese, Iron, Cobalt, Nickel, Copper, Yttrium, Zirconium, Niobium, Technetium, Ruthenium, Rhodium, Palladium, Silver, Hafnium, Tantalum, Tungsten, Rhenium, Osmium, Iridium, Platinum, Gold, Mercury, Rutherfordium, Dubnium, Seaborgium, Bohrium, Hassium, Copernicium.Post-transition metals:Aluminium, Gallium, Indium, Tin, Thallium, Lead, BismuthLanthanides:Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, LutetiumActinides:Actinium, Thorium, Protactinium, Uranium, Neptunium, Plutonium, Americium, Curium, Berkelium, Californium, Einsteinium, Fermium, Mendelevium, Nobelium, Lawrencium Elements are not this strange.MercuryLeadGoldAre elements as are several othersSteel is an example of combination metals loosely known as alloys.
