Element Breakdown
Magnesium (Mg)
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.
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.
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.
Dysprosium (Dy)
Dysprosium gets its name from the Greek word 'dysprositos,' meaning 'hard to get at,' because it was extremely difficult to isolate from other rare earth elements.
Rhenium (Re)
Rhenium was the last stable, naturally occurring element to be discovered, found in 1925 by Walter Noddack, Ida Noddack, and Otto Berg.
Dysprosium (Dy)
Dysprosium gets its name from the Greek word 'dysprositos,' meaning 'hard to get at,' because it was extremely difficult to isolate from other rare earth elements.
