This is a non-metal and the most abundant element in the Universe. It is the basic fuel for nuclear reactions in the stars. It is a gaseous substance on Earth and the lightest element in the Universe.
This element is a transition metal used in large amounts by the electrical industry in the form of wire. This metal is the second-best in the electrical conductance. Because this element resists corrosion in air, moisture and seawater, it has been widely used in coins.
This is a transition metal. This is a metal of the platinum family and it is the most corrosion-resistant metal known. It is used in the production of the alloys with osmium and platinum and in the production of crucibles and devices requiring high temperatures.
