As anyone would guess, every atom has a group name assigned, even Praseodymium. But how do we know what is the group name for an atom of Pr?
First of all, if we know the atom symbol (or name), let's say Pr, we can open any periodic table and search for Praseodymium. If the periodic table is complete just scroll up and read the number on the top (from 1 to 18).
In the case of Praseodymium the group number is lanthanides. However there is a lot of funny facts about Praseodymium that most people don't know. Shall we have a look?

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. "Group Number of Praseodymium (& Uses, Sources ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>
Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.

Atomic Symbol
PrName Origin
Greek: prasios and didymos (green twin); from its green salts.Description
Silvery white, moderately soft, malleable, ductile metal.State at 20 °C
SolidDiscovery
Discovered By: C.F. Aver von WelsbachYear: 1885
Location: Austria
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.Sources
Obtained from same salts as neodymium.Want to learn more details and data about Praseodymium (Pr)? Check my Elements Comprehensive List.
