The atomic number of a chemical element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of the atom of that element.Ok so I'll take you through some interesting facts and data about Praseodymium (That most people don't know).
Praseodymium Overview
Atomic Symbol
Pr (Praseodymium)
Description
Silvery white, moderately soft, malleable, ductile metal.
State at 20 °C
Solid
Sources
Obtained from same salts as neodymium.

Uses
Used with neodymium to make lenses for glass maker's goggles since it filters out the yellow light present in glass blowing. Alloyed with magnesium creates a high-strength metal used in aircraft engines. Makes up 5% of Mich metal.
