Element Breakdown
Sulfur (S)
Sulfur is one of the oldest known elements — ancient civilizations called it 'brimstone' and associated it with volcanoes and the underworld.
Tantalum (Ta)
Tantalum is named after Tantalus from Greek mythology, who was condemned to stand in water beneath fruit trees but could never eat or drink — the water and fruit always moved just out of reach.
Nitrogen (N)
Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the air you are breathing right now, yet you barely notice it.
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.
Yttrium (Y)
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!).
