RADIUM

Symbol: Ra
Atomic Number: 88
Atomic Mass: 226

RADIUM PROPERTIES

• Color: Silvery white metallic.
• Texture: distributed in rock structures in a form of smooth rock, if broken off it could feel like a pebble.
• Hardness: Hard rock material like a metal.
• Phase At Room Temp: Solid, it would be in a rock or pebble form.

CONDUCT AND DENSITY

• Radium can conduct heat or electricity.
• It's density is 5.5 g/cm^3

HEATING

• Boiling Point: 1,292°F (699.8°C)
• Melting Point: 3,159 F° (1,737 C°)

FEATURES AND DETAILES

• Luster: Brilliant white, luminescent, highly radioactive metallic element.
• Radium can be formed into sheets but is highly radioactive. Radium is mostly malleable but also very ductile.

OTHER PROPERTIES

• It is luminescent
• Group name is Alkaline earth metal
• Has 6 isotopes
• High concentrations of radium exist in water on some places.
• Plants absorb radium from the soil. Animals that eat these plants will accumulate radium.
