Element Breakdown
Vanadium (V)
Vanadium has been discovered twice! It was first found in 1801 by Andrés Manuel del Río in Mexico, but he was talked out of his discovery by other scientists.
Argon (Ar)
Argon is the lazy element — its name comes from the Greek word 'argos,' meaning idle or lazy, because it barely reacts with anything.
Nickel (Ni)
Nickel was named by frustrated Swedish miners who found a copper-colored ore that refused to yield any copper.
Sulfur (S)
Sulfur is one of the oldest known elements — ancient civilizations called it 'brimstone' and associated it with volcanoes and the underworld.
Hydrogen (H)
Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the entire universe — about 75% of all normal matter is hydrogen! It was first recognized as a distinct element in 1766 by Henry Cavendish, who called it 'inflammable air' because it catches fire so easily.
