Description Fractal representation of Europium for my Chemical project.

apo2.07

Info:

Europium ignites in air at about 150 to 180°C.
Europium is about as hard as lead and is quite ductile. It is the most reactive of the rare earth metals, quickly oxidizing in air. It resembles calcium in its reaction with water. It is used in television screens to produce a red colour.

That is AWESOME.

Europium. Hmm... Think it's named after something in Europe or after the moon Europa?
