magnesium (Mg)


In physical properties Magnesium in its pure form is a bright-colored metal. It's highly reactive, which means that it readly conbines with other elements to for a large number of compounds . many of wich have comercials and dimestic uses, and also magnesium reacts with cold water too,but the reaction is much slower that it is with steam.
In history magnesium is a silvery white metal valued through out the world because of its weight. of all the metals used to make structual components,magnesium is the lighttest about 66 percent of eight of aluminium and just 25 percaent of steel. magniseum melts ar 1,200 f (651c) when it can be pured into molds to make objects . It turn into a gas at 2,025f (1,107c) wich is improtant in one of its extraction processes. the person who discovered it manesium was the famous chemist sir humphy dave in 1618. Usually magnesium come from the earth. About 2.5 percent of earth is made of magnesium.

Background;Gold (pronounced /ˈɡoʊld/) is a chemical element with the symbol Au (Latin: aurum) and an atomic number of 79. It has been a highly sought-after precious metal for coinage, jewelry, and other arts since the beginning of recorded history. The metal occurs as nuggets or grains in rocks, in veins and in alluvial deposits. Gold is dense, soft, shiny and the most malleable and ductile pure metal known. Pure gold has a bright yellow color and luster traditionally considered attractive, which it maintains without oxidizing in air or water. It is one of the coinage metals and formed the basis for the gold standard used before the collapse of the Bretton Woods system in 1971.

Boiling point- 2875k, 2603 degree C, 4716 degree F.


Tin's Antiquity
Tin is one of the earliest metal known. Late Stone Age metal-workers discovered that putting
a small amount of tin, about 5%, in molten copper produced an alloy called bronze that was easier to work and much harder than copper. In 1931 the tin producers founded the international tin committee, followed in 1956 by the international tin council, an institution to control the tin market. After the collapse of the market in October 1985 the price for tin nearly halve.
Uses for tin.
Tin is used for coating lead or zinc and steel to prevent corrosion. Window glass is most often made via floating molten glass on top of molten tin (creating float glass) in order to make a flat surface (this is called the "Pilkington process"). Tin has long been used as a solder in the form of an alloy with lead, tin comprising 5 to 70% w/w. Tin forms a eutectic mixture with lead containing 63% tin and 37% lead. Such solders are primarily used for solders for joining pipes or electric circuits.

Background
(Who Discovered this Element? When?)
Francium is the least stable of the naturally occurring elements: its most stable isotope, francium-223, has a maximum half-life of only 22 minutes. In contrast,astatine, the second-least stable naturally occurring element, has a maximum half-life of 8.5 hours. All isotopes of francium decay into either astatine, radium, or radon. Francium is also less stable than all synthetic elements up to element 105.

Uses for this element
Due to its instability and rarity, there are no commercial applications for francium. It has been used for research purposes in the fields of biology and of atomic structure. Its use as a potential diagnostic aid for various cancers has also been explored but this application has been deemed impractical.
