Heat of Fusion of Praseodymium (Pr) + Discovery, Color, Sources ... 2022

Heat of fusion is an important (and pratical) atom property, even for Praseodymium. Ok, so what is the heat of fusion for an atom of Pr?

Note: Learn more about heat of fusion here.

In the case of Praseodymium, heat of fusion is 6.890 kJ/mol. Some cool facts about Praseodymium are unknown for most people. Let me walk you through them...

Praseodymium Data

Praseodymium Heat of Fusion

6.890 kJ/mol

Solid

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.

Atomic Mass

140,90765

Name Origin

Greek: prasios and didymos (green twin); from its green salts.

Description

Silvery white, moderately soft, malleable, ductile metal.

Atomic Symbol

Pr

Sources

Obtained from same salts as neodymium.

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

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. "Heat of Fusion of Praseodymium (Pr) + Discovery, Color, 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.
