World-class centre backs are as rare as sourcing Astatine – the world's most rare natural element – so there, as we already know, won't be any shortage of flush suitors. Next: Is visit to Rochdale last chance saloon for Fernando Llorente? The gulf between player and club is too large and it will remain that ...

... the periodic table that makes it easy to see what all the elements can do. His table is interactive and features helpful pictures. Impress your friends and yourself by learning the applications of astatine (radioactive medicine), molybdenum (cutting tools like scissors), krypton (flashlights) and other elements.
Astatine is the rarest element on Earth; only approximately 25 grams occur naturally on the planet at any given time. Its existence was predicted in the 1800s, but was finally discovered about 70 years later. Decades after its discovery, very little is known about astatine. Indeed, physicists infer many of its ...
It isn't astatine any longer. This element has a half life of roughly 8 hours, meaning if you could get a clump of it to stay on a table (you can't), half of it would disintegrate in 8 hours, and then every 8 hours another half would go until in a few days, there'd be no astatine on the table. Its nickname should be ...
Excerpted from A Tale of 7 Elements, by Eric Scerri. Reprinted with permission of Oxford University Press, June 2013. The story surrounding element 85 is one of the most complex and interesting among our seven elements (fig. 8.1). The various claims for its discovery reveal many of the nationalistic traits ...
Astatine occurs naturally; however, scientists estimate much less than an ounce in total exists worldwide. For a long time, the characteristics of this elusive element were a mystery, but physicists at the CERN physics laboratory in Switzerland have now measured its ionization potential — the amount of ...
Astatine can only be found on Earth following the decay of thorium and uranium. It is estimated that less than 30 g of astatine is present in the Earth's crust, only very few µg of astatine have been produced artificially so far, and elemental astatine has not been viewed by the naked eye due to its instability.
Halogens are a group of elements that can be found in the periodic table consisting of five chemically related elements, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine. The name “halogen” means “salt producing”. All halogens form acids when bonded to hydrogen. The middle halogens - chlorine, bromine ...
