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.

Eu

Europium (Eu)

Atomic number 63 Lanthanide

Europium is named after the continent of Europe.

Li

Lithium (Li)

Atomic number 3 Alkali Metal

Lithium is the lightest metal on the periodic table — so light it actually floats on water! Discovered in 1817 by Johan August Arfwedson in a Swedish mine, its name comes from the Greek word 'lithos,' meaning stone.

B

Boron (B)

Atomic number 5 Metalloid

Boron might not be famous, but it is hiding in things you use every day.

O

Oxygen (O)

Atomic number 8 Nonmetal

Oxygen is the element you literally cannot live without.

U

Uranium (U)

Atomic number 92 Actinide

Uranium was discovered in 1789 by Martin Heinrich Klaproth, who named it after the planet Uranus, which had been discovered just eight years earlier.

Rb

Rubidium (Rb)

Atomic number 37 Alkali Metal

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.

Ne

Neon (Ne)

Atomic number 10 Noble Gas

Neon is the element that lights up the night.
