Status update:

10-28-13 Chillin in a lady's T.V. Breaking Bad is almost over. #chillin #seasonfinale 

8-6-1945 Dropped out of a plane in a bomb #bigzboom #levelinggroundz 

1896 Discovered and naned after Europe nobody knows me! #redheaddedstepchild

11-3-13 Still single, but ready to be in a compound

10-30-13 Found in many chemical equations mostly with halogens:) 


Overview:

I am a ductile metal, that is similar to lead in hardness. Also I have a half filled electron shell. To add to that I got the lowest density out of all the lanthanides. My chemical properties: I am the most reactive earth element #winning. I just work with water so well bros for life.

Information: 

 

Relationship Status: 

not in a relationship but ready to bond

Primary Relationship: 

can form covalent bonds 

network: 

metal 

valence electrons:

7

reactivity: highly reactive, React with all halogens
state of matter:  solid 
Location on Periodic Table: period:6 group:n/a 

Birthday: 

1890 

Hometown: 

Paul Emile Lecoq de Boisbaudran 

Movies: 

Chernobyl Diaries

Hiroshima

K-19: The Widow Maker 

Activities & Interests:

Since europium can absorb more neutrons per atom making it a main component in nuclear control rods. europium-doped plastic are used in lasers. It tarnishes well in water it is used in tvs to produce a red color. I react with water and diluted acids, and also reacts immediately with air. I do not react with other earth metals.

 


Places:

8-7-11 just waiting in a T.V the big game is coming on so getting ready to work.

9-1-10 being used to cut large pieces of metal out of this hot laser 

5-23-12 being used in a reactor trying not to blow

10-29-13 4Eu + 3O2 → 2Eu2O3 me reacting with oxygen


Photos:     

Create 2 photo albums:

  • atom and bonding diagrams - these will be done in class and will take time
  • fun images - pictures that contain the element

 every photo must have a caption 

- tag other elements in the pictures

What is the thingy on your profile pic? It looks like giant curried grasshoppers.

The "thingy" in my profile picture is me (offence taken) Europium. It is used to produce the red color in televisions and are used in compact flourescent bulbs. I am not a commonly known element but I am seen often.

Europium resembles what element when mixed with water?

When mixed with water Europium resembles calcium. Yet it is mostly reactive with rare earth metals, and it oxidizes in air very quickly.
