Element Breakdown

Mg

Magnesium (Mg)

Atomic number 12 Alkaline Earth Metal

Magnesium is the element that burns with a blindingly bright white light — so bright that early photographers used magnesium flash powder to illuminate their shots.

Ar

Argon (Ar)

Atomic number 18 Noble Gas

Argon is the lazy element — its name comes from the Greek word 'argos,' meaning idle or lazy, because it barely reacts with anything.

Y

Yttrium (Y)

Atomic number 39 Transition Metal

Yttrium is one of four elements named after the tiny Swedish village of Ytterby (the others are ytterbium, terbium, and erbium — talk about a famous village!).
