How to Spell Trilby with Periodic Table Elements

22 Ti Titanium 37 Rb Rubidium 53 I Iodine 3 Li Lithium 5 B Boron 39 Y Yttrium

Element Breakdown

Ti

Titanium (Ti)

Atomic number 22 Transition Metal

Titanium is named after the Titans of Greek mythology, and the name fits perfectly — this metal is incredibly strong yet surprisingly lightweight.

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.

I

Iodine (I)

Atomic number 53 Halogen

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.

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.

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!).
