Boiling point 1810° F Melting point 841.12°F Color is a slivery -grey or slivery-white In air tellurium burns in a greenish-blue flame making the dioxide Tellurium can have greater conductivity if its atoms are in a certain alignment Tellurium’s conductivity can also increase if it is exposed to light If tellurium is molten it corrodes copper, iron, and stainless steel Sliver, copper, gold, tin, or other elements can be doped with tellurium Tellurium is used for tinting Tellurium can be used in ceramics Tellurium is used for tinting glass Tellurium is added to lead to prevent corrosion and strength Tellurium is used to improve machinability in copper and stainless steel Tellurium is alloyed into cast iron for chill control Tellurium is used in chalcogenide glasses Tellurium is used as an ingredient in blasting caps Properties and Uses www.cheicalelements.com

PoemThere is not a lot of tellurium to go aroundBut u can find it in suffer, copper, and goldIt was discovered In Transylvania in 1782 The man that found tellurium name is Franz Joseph Muller von ReichensteinLater on in 1789 Martin Heinrich Klaproth named telluriumAfter that he isolated telluriumTellurium came from the Latin word tellusIn Latin tellus means earthSometimes tellurium can be in dioxide form Tellurium can be in small amounts in mineralsTellurium cant be found every where some tellurium can be found in the u.s., Canada, and Peru
