Wikipedia article:  Lithium

 

Lithium

 

Lithium (100)

 

·         Like all alkali metals, lithium is highly reactive and flammable.

 

·         When cut open, lithium exhibits a metallic luster, but contact with moist air corrodes the surface quickly to a dull silvery gray, then black, tarnish.

 

·         Because of its high reactivity, lithium never occurs free in nature, and instead, only appears in compounds, which are usually ionic.

 

·         Lithium occurs in a number of pegmatitic minerals, but due to its solubility as an ion is present in ocean water and is commonly obtained from brines and clays. (more…)

Wikipedia article:  Helium

 

Helium

 

Helium (100)

 

·         Helium is the second lightest element and is the second most abundant element in the observable universe, being present at about 24% of the total elemental mass, which is more than 12 times the mass of all the heavier elements combined.

 

·         This is due to the very high binding energy (per nucleon) of helium-4 with respect to the next three elements after helium.

 

·         In 1903, large reserves of helium were found in natural gas fields in parts of the United States, which is by far the largest supplier of the gas today.

 

·         Helium is used in cryogenics (its largest single use, absorbing about a quarter of production), particularly in the cooling of superconducting magnets, with the main commercial application being in MRI scanners.

·         Four historical traditions in geographical research are the spatial analysis of natural and human phenomena (geography as a study of distribution), area studies (places and regions), study of man-land relationship, and research in earth sciences.

 

·         Nonetheless, modern geography is an all-encompassing discipline that foremost seeks to understand the Earth and all of its human and natural complexities—not merely where objects are, but how they have changed and come to be.

 

·         Geography has been called "the world discipline" and "the bridge between the human and the physical science".

·         This increased level of vampire superstition in Europe led to mass hysteria and in some cases resulted in corpses actually being staked and people being accused of vampirism.
