Element Breakdown
Phosphorus (P)
Phosphorus has one of the wildest discovery stories in chemistry.
Iodine (I)
Iodine was discovered by accident in 1811 when Bernard Courtois, a French saltpeter manufacturer, added too much sulfuric acid to seaweed ash and saw beautiful violet fumes rising up.
Carbon (C)
Carbon is the element of life itself.
Potassium (K)
Potassium's symbol 'K' comes from 'kalium,' its Latin name, which traces back to the Arabic word 'qali' meaning plant ashes — because potassium was originally extracted from wood ash.
Lithium (Li)
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.
Europium (Eu)
Europium is named after the continent of Europe.
