Study Notes
Elements 76-100 in the Periodic Table
- Osmium (Os): A dense metal often used in fountain pen nibs and electrical contacts.
- Iridium (Ir): Highly corrosion-resistant and used in high-temperature applications and spark plugs.
- Platinum (Pt): A precious metal known for its catalytic properties and used in jewelry and laboratory equipment.
- Gold (Au): Primarily known for its use in jewelry, electronics, and as an investment commodity.
- Mercury (Hg): The only metal that is liquid at room temperature, used in thermometers and barometers.
- Thallium (Tl): Used in electronics and has applications in some medical imaging techniques.
- Lead (Pb): A heavy, malleable metal previously used in paints and pipes, now regulated due to toxicity.
- Bismuth (Bi): Known for its low toxicity and used in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
- Polonium (Po): A radioactive element discovered by Marie Curie, used in anti-static applications.
- Astatine (At): A rare, radioactive halogen with limited practical applications due to its instability.
- Radon (Rn): A colorless, odorless gas that is radioactive and originates from the decay of uranium; a health hazard in enclosed spaces.
- Francium (Fr): Extremely rare and highly radioactive, it has no significant commercial applications.
- Radium (Ra): A radioactive element used historically in glow-in-the-dark paints; poses significant health risks.
- Actinium (Ac): Used in radiation therapy and as a neutron source for scientific research.
- Thorium (Th): A potentially valuable nuclear fuel alternative with a higher safety profile compared to uranium.
