Status update: |
10/9- Headed to work at the nuclear power plant. 10/9- On my way home I got into an accident. I ran into a truck carrying an entire vat of acid and got drenched in the stuff. Good thing I am resistant to corrosion. 10/10- I am so proud of my son for being the light of the camera team at his school. Literally! 11/5- I FINALLY got up the guts to ask out Selenium and she said yes! I am so happy! 11/5- When balancing chemical equations, i need to make sure that there are the same number of elements on one side as the other. |
Overview: |
I am a non toxic, ductile metal. I am similar to my brother from another mother, zirconium. I am corrosion resistant so bring on the acids! |
Information: |
|
Relationship Status: |
In a relationship |
Primary Relationship: |
With Selenium |
network: |
Transition metal |
valence electrons: |
Two |
reactivity: | Highly active at high temperatures w/ boron,carbon,oxygen,silicon,and sulfur |
state of matter: | solid and room temperature |
Location on Periodic Table: | Group 4, period 6 |
Birthday: |
1923 |
Hometown: |
Copenhagen, discovered by Dirk Coster |
Movies: |
Two and a Haf Men: The Movie and Haf Nelson |
Activities & Interests: |
I like working at the nuclear reactor as control rods. I was the flash of the camera in college and its still a hobby of mine. When I get with my friends we can really withstand heat, and that makes us the perfect group for space shuttle engines. |
Places: |
10/9- Copenhagen. 10/10- NASA Space Center 10/11- Microsoft Developing Plant. 11/5- I was at the mall with Silver, Iron, Cobalt and Copper. (HfCuFe+ 2CoAg) #hangingwithhalfofthetwins but then Silver and Cobalt went off to play with their twins. (HfCuFe+Co2Ag2) HfCuFe+ 2CoAg ---> HfCuFe+Co2Ag2 |
