As mentioned in another thread, I am radium. I was exciting when people discovered me and then I killed a lot of people before they realized what was going on.

I'm Zirconium.
Wikipedia wrote:Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40. The name zirconium is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium. The word zircon comes from the Persian word zargun زرگون, meaning "gold-colored". It is a lustrous, grey-white, strong transition metal that resembles hafnium and, to a lesser extent, titanium. Zirconium is mainly used as a refractory and opacifier, although small amounts are used as an alloying agent for its strong resistance to corrosion. Zirconium forms a variety of inorganic and organometallic compounds such as zirconium dioxide and zirconocene dichloride, respectively. Five isotopes occur naturally, three of which are stable. Zirconium compounds have no known biological role.

Wait, hold on... going to the Members list and counting down from the top, I'm number 40 on the list.

But if I click my name to bring up my profile, it says I'm number 87.

Now I'm just all kinds of confused. Am I Zirconium or am I Francium? :psyduck:

But if my profile number is 87, why am I the 40th person listed on the member list?

Also, this sucks. I dislike odd numbers. I prefer even numbers, particularly multiples of 8. :fluttersmith:

Fontra, what if they name an element after you? I imagine that birddingusium would be highly radioactive and unstable to where only a few atoms of it exist at a time, but at least your name would be on it!

if I ever do get the chance to synthesize a heavy element, I hope its the most destructive one ever and literally all the wars are fought over it and humanity is nearly wiped out from fighting for it lmao

Unbiunium, also known as eka-actinium or element 121, is the hypothetical chemical element with symbol Ubu and atomic number 121. Unbiunium and Ubu are the temporary systematic IUPAC name and symbol, until a permanent name is decided upon. In the periodic table of the elements, it is expected to be the first of the superactinides, and the third element in the eighth period: analogously to lanthanum and actinium, it could be considered the fifth member of group 3 and the first member of the fifth-row transition metals. It has attracted attention because of some predictions that it may be in the island of stability, although newer calculations expect the island to actually occur at a slightly lower atomic number, closer to copernicium and flerovium.

Unbiunium has not yet been synthesised. Nevertheless, because it is only three elements away from the heaviest known element, oganesson (element 118), its synthesis may come in the near future; it is expected to be one of the last few reachable elements with current technology, and the limit may be anywhere between element 120 and 124. It will also likely be far more difficult to synthesise than the elements known so far up to 118, and still more difficult than elements 119 and 120. The team at RIKEN in Japan has plans to attempt the synthesis of element 121 in the future after its attempts on elements 119 and 120.

I like the Latin placeholders for unnamed elements. "unbiunium" literally means "one-two-one-ium"

Gadolinium is a chemical element with symbol Gd and atomic number 64. Gadolinium is a silvery-white, malleable, and ductile rare earth metal. It is found in nature only in oxidized form, and even when separated, it usually has impurities of the other rare earths. Gadolinium was discovered in 1880 by Jean Charles de Marignac, who detected its oxide by using spectroscopy. It is named after the mineral gadolinite, one of the minerals in which gadolinium is found, itself named for the chemist Johan Gadolin. Pure gadolinium was first isolated by the chemist Paul Emile Lecoq de Boisbaudran around 1886.

Gadolinium possesses unusual metallurgical properties, to the extent that as little as 1% of gadolinium can significantly improve the workability and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures of iron, chromium, and related metals. Gadolinium as a metal or a salt absorbs neutrons and is, therefore, used sometimes for shielding in neutron radiography and in nuclear reactors.
Like most of the rare earths, gadolinium forms trivalent ions with fluorescent properties, and salts of gadolinium(III) are used as phosphors in various applications.

The kinds of gadolinium(III) ions occurring in water-soluble salts are toxic to mammals. However, chelated gadolinium(III) compounds are far less toxic because they carry gadolinium(III) through the kidneys and out of the body before the free ion can be released into the tissues. Because of its paramagnetic properties, solutions of chelated organic gadolinium complexes are used as intravenously administered gadolinium-based MRI contrast agents in medical magnetic resonance imaging.
yeah okay

You forgot the best and most forgotten thing about gadolinium, the magnetocaloric effect.

When exposed to a magnetic field, it heats up slightly. By letting it cool back to room temperature while it’s still in that field, removing the magnetic field causes it to cool down below room temperature. Using an electromagnet to make the field means you could theoretically make a refrigerator with no moving parts (though practically it hasn’t been easy).

There have already been attempts and currently the Japanese superheavy lab is working on making the equipment necessary to synthesize it. The Russian lab is pursuing 120 and honestly they’ll probably discover theirs first, but you never know! Science is a wonderful magical thing that doesn’t operate according any rules or reason, guided only by our imaginations!
