Calcium is the only element with two primordial doubly magic isotopes. The experimental lower limits for the half-lives of 40 Ca and 46 Ca are 5.9 × 10 21 years and 2.8 × 10 15 years respectively. [30] Apart from the practically stable 48 Ca, the longest lived radioisotope of calcium is 41 Ca.
Promethium is not an easy image to find, however, out of all the elements without a picture, it is one of the two most likely to have a picture discovered. The only pictures floating around the place are of promethium chloride and promethium oxide, but not the metal itself. This is likely because the metal is not used for anything, it's hard to ...

There are techinically a few pictures of francium floating around, 2 of which are on the element's article (the 300,000 atom heat one and the 200,000 atom light one), and 2 here (the black and white one of 1000 atoms, and the discovery paper). However, none of these depict the atom directly, they are just images of the heat and light emitted by ...
The past can be quite fascinating.Those of us living in the present find it really interesting what life was like 50, 100, or even a 1,000 years ago. Luckily, we can go almost 200 years to the ...
Naturally occurring calcium and barium are very weakly radioactive: calcium contains about 0.1874% calcium-48, [30] and barium contains about 0.1062% barium-130. [31] On average, one double-beta decay of calcium-48 will occur per second for every 90 tons of natural calcium, or 230 tons of limestone (calcium carbonate). [ 32 ]

Lavoisier writes the first modern list of chemical elements – containing 33 elements including light and heat but omitting Na, K (he was unsure of whether soda and potash without carbonic acid, i.e. Na 2 O and K 2 O, are simple substances or compounds like NH 3), [91] Sr, Te; some elements were listed in the table as unextracted "radicals ...
