Element Breakdown
Aluminum (Al)
Aluminum (or aluminium, depending on where you live) was once more valuable than gold! In the 1800s, before scientists figured out how to mass-produce it, Napoleon III served his most honored guests with aluminum cutlery while everyone else got gold.
Nitrogen (N)
Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the air you are breathing right now, yet you barely notice it.
Carbon (C)
Carbon is the element of life itself.
Holmium (Ho)
Holmium is named after Stockholm, Sweden (Holmia is the Latin name for Stockholm).
Rubidium (Rb)
Rubidium was discovered in 1861 by Robert Bunsen (yes, the Bunsen burner guy) and Gustav Kirchhoff using a brand-new technique called spectroscopy — they identified it by the beautiful deep red spectral lines it produced.
