Balcherite Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Just what the title says- what is your favorite element from the periodic table (the only elements)? My favorite element is titanium (Ti), simply because it is several times stronger and lighter than steel. Its color is also metallic grey/white, which I think is pretty cool. There's other reasons why titanium is my favorite, but I can't describe :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrafterofGenius Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Probably (Hg)Mercury since it's a material we eat which is comonly found in fish, and is also used for thermometers. Too much will kill you, but damn tuna is so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlaqkAudio Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Kind of an odd question. Water because we'd all be dead without it. Same would go for oxygen. I live being alive so those are my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrublordington the III Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 air is my favorite element But water isnt an element :/ is too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrafterofGenius Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 is too On that logic; fire, ice, wind, water, psychic, and dark/light are all on the periodic table. Please point them out for the class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deku Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Kind of an odd question. Water because we'd all be dead without it. Same would go for oxygen. I live being alive so those are my favorites. Water is not an element. It is a compound. One water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Anyway, probably francium since it has an extremely short half-life of all the elements, making it near-impossible to find a pure sample of it. Its most stable isotope, francium-223, has a half-life of only 22 minutes, its least stable isotope, francium-221, has a half-life of 4.8 minutes.

Captain Caboose Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 But water isnt an element :/ Techincally, no but neither is air as they are both compunds not singular elements. Air is nitrogen and oxygen and water is hydrogen and oxygen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Purple Chakra Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 We've only 'known' about the periodic table of the (modern) elements for like 200 years (sue me if im wrong) So, majority rules, amirite? Therefore, fire is the best element Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Prof. Sugarcube♥ Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Step aside, let the Professor have his say. My favourite element? Technetium. Shows up on x-rays, glows in your blood, and it's synthetic One of 2 elements in the stable isotope range (Other being Promethium) that are made synethically. Without it, blood clots, tumors, we can't see them. Blockages neither. Element 43, Smack bang in the middle of the metals. Also radioactive It is, however, highly unstable - but that's what makes it awesome. Tc ftw, Tc 4lyf TC still sucks tho. Close seconds are Gold (Au), for being the most malleable element of the table, Cesium (Cs) and Rubidium (Rb) for being a nuke in water, and Yttrium from it's Swedish mass discovery with it's brothers, Ytterbium, Erbium and Terbium (Y, Yb, Er, Tb) I could go on and on and on about Technetium, but then i'd be writing an essay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
