I was just called for the fire suppresion. Thanks to tin and cadmium's help for forming low-melting alloys, extinguishing was successful. I am so glad no one was seriously injured.

I have so much things to do today! first I have to go help producing malleable irons and then I have to go help making acrylic fibers.

Reacting with fluorine

I just cannot believe how no one have asked me to be a partner or answered my request!! I can form covalent bond with oxygen and be part of the make up set. Also I can react with so many halogens such as flourine, chlorine and bromine... well I guess I'll just be forever alone...

Overview:
|
|
Hi. I am bismuth. I am soft metal, and I am very proud of my unique appearance. I have a bright, shiny surface, and thanks to oxygen, I have really pretty yellowish and pinkish tinge. I am a frail metal, so becareful with me. I can break easily. Also, if you want to work with me, please make sure we are not working at room temperature because I cannot work at room temperature. I am a metal of distinct iniviuality. Unlike other materials, I expand as I solidify. My melting point is 520'F and boiling point is 2480'F. I mostly react with oxygen. At room temperature, I combine with oxygen and burn at higher temperature to form Bismuth oxide. I also react with most of the acids.

I mostly spend my time making an alloys. I sometimes work as a fire fighter with tin and cadmium. We together form low-melting alloys that are extensively used for safety devices in fire extinguishing system. I also work as a substitue for lead. I substitue lead in alloys and sometimes replace lead in plumbing applicatios and in coloring paints, ceramics and glazes.
There are four different types of reactions.: synthesis, decomposition, single replacementnt and double replacement. Synthesis reacts is two or more reactants uniting to form a single product. In decomposition reactions, a single reactant is decomposed or broken down into two or more. In single relacement reactions , a single free elmement replaces or is substituted for one of the element in a compouNd. The free element is more reactive than the one its replaces. In double displacement is an exchange of partner.
2Bi + 5F2 ---> 2BiF5 is synthesis
4Bi(s) + 3O2(g) + 12HCl(aq) → 4BiCl3(aq) + 6H2O(l)
is double displacement

Hello Bismuth,
You stated that you are a substitute for lead. What can you do that lead cannot? In other words, why would lead need a substitute?

The lead is now eliminated from the most of the electronics industry's product range because it is very toxic and can cause workers many long term health problems. Silver can also be a substitute for lead, but bismuth is much cheaper than the lead. So unlike lead, bismuth is safe to use.
