Gold Symbol: Au Atomic Number: 79 Atomic Mass: 196.96655 Melting Point: 1064.43 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 79 Number of Neutrons: 118 Classification: Transition MetalColor: Gold Date of Discovery: circa 3000 BC Discoverer: Unknown Name Origin: From the Old English word geolo (yellow) Symbol Origin: From the Latin word aurum (gold) Uses: electronics, jewelry, coins Obtained From: crust of the earth, copper ores
Platinum Symbol: Pt Atomic Number: 78 Atomic Mass: 195.078 Melting Point: 1772.0 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 78 Number of Neutrons: 117 Classification: Transition MetalColor:silverish Date of Discovery: 1735 Discoverer: Julius Scaliger Name Origin: From the Spanish word platina (little silver) Uses: jewelry, containers, catalyst Obtained From: platinum ores
Conclusion To conclude, the relationship between the discovery date and the reactivity series is as follows: “The further down the metal in the reactivity series (the less reactive the metal) the longer ago it was discovered.” In general, the less reactive a metal, the earlier it will have been isolated and identified. My Project is linked to Human Ingenuity because it shows the date of discovery and the person who discovered it.
Periodic Table Of Elements Movie This movie is about the elements in the periodic table. The nine metals that I have researched are all represented in the periodic table in there atomic forms, the most reactive of which are in the first group.
