Is this element toxic?

Usually, I have a very low to moderate level of toxicity. However I should still be handled with care because I can sometimes cause pneumoconiosis, a disease that affects the lungs, which can be caused by breathing in my dust.

I hear you react with halogens! I wish I did.

I can react with various elements like oxygen, hydrogen, and all of the halogens such as Iodine, Fluorine, Chlorine, and Bromine. I not not explode with any elements but I am highly flammable.

Why is Lanthanum considered a "rare earth metal" even though is not that rare?
lanthanum said
at 5:27 pm on Nov 4, 2013
I am considered a rare earth metal because compared to common earth metals, I am much more rare. Also, mining me is tough because it is difficult, time consuming and expensive.

How would Toyota use Lanthanum?
lanthanum said

Even though I am used in many Toyota cars, many people do not recognize me. I am used in many hybrid cars like the Toyota Prius as a battery know as a nickel-metal hydride battery. The metal in the battery is me!

I'm in a relationship with chromium! They were the perfect match for me! Together we bond with a metallic bond and create lanthanum chromite.
