Similar to argon but duller, more pink; at high peak currents bright blue-white. used in the Moore lamp (historically) Oxygen: Violet to lavender, dimmer than argon: Hydrogen: Lavender at low currents, pink to magenta over 10 mA Water vapor: Similar to hydrogen, dimmer Carbon dioxide: Blue-white to pink, at lower currents brighter than xenon
The abundance of argon, on the other hand, is increased as a result of the beta decay of potassium-40, also found in the Earth's crust, to form argon-40, which is the most abundant isotope of argon on Earth despite being relatively rare in the Solar System. This process is the basis for the potassium-argon dating method. [72]
Argon is a chemical element; it has symbol Ar and atomic number 18. It is in group 18 of the periodic table and is a noble gas. [10] Argon is the third most abundant ...
Lithium is a soft, silvery alkali metal that, in its pure form, is so reactive and flammable it has to be stored either in a vacuum or an inert gas like argon or an inert liquid like mineral oil.
The abbreviation of high school in the clue alerts solvers that the answer will be an abbreviation. EEL (12D: Fish compared to the Grinch) "You're as cuddly as a cactus / You're as charming as an ...
"Exhalation" is a science fiction short story by American writer Ted Chiang about the second law of thermodynamics. It was first published in 2008 in the anthology Eclipse 2: New Science Fiction and Fantasy, edited by Jonathan Strahan.
"It looks like inhaled anesthetics act on multiple molecular targets. That makes it a more difficult problem to pick apart." The possibility of anaesthesia by the inert gas argon in particular (even at 10 to 15 bar) suggests that the mechanism of action of volatile anaesthetics is an effect best described by physical chemistry , and not a ...
An element made up by Fender, who claims to be built out of said metal. Fender says it is yellow and tastes like chicken.
