The Periodic Table (Chemical Elements)

[AnAngryMoose]

Francium
Its an alkali metal on the lowest row and probably the most reactive metal in the table

No, it isn't. It's predicted to be less reactive than Caesium. It's so damn heavy that relativistic effects come into play.

Copper. The abbreviations are CU. How genius is that?!

Even better are the abbreviations of the compounds you can make using it (hint: look up `Copper NanoTubes').

I'd say Potassium (K) because it burns lilac (well, purple, but counted as lilac) in fire.

My favourite compound, however would be Sodium Dichromate (Na2Cr2O7). I dunno why, it's just awesome.

Why not potassium dichromate then?

I don't know. Probably because whenever I've needed to use Dichromate in a lab I've always used Sodium Dichromate.

Xenon, it has a cool name and it is unreactive. But I think I'd go with either Uranium, Plutonium, Arsenic, Chlorine, Mercury, Radium and Radon for deadliness. Though I like Helium, I have had a few giggles with that stuff. On the topic of the periodic table listen to the Element Song by Tom Lehrer if you haven't.
