My Element By Maleena Mel

​    My element is an yttrium. It is a Metallic element, not rare on earth but occurring in nearly all rare-earth minerals. Yttrium is classified as a “Transition Metal” Which is located on group 3 period 5 on the periodic table. An element classified as a Transition metal is ductile, malleable, and able to conduct electricity and heat. Yttrium are used to make europium and europium phosphors that give the red color in the televisions picture tubes. So bacilli it is used for the color of a T.V and not only that used for radars, and microwave. 
    I came up with this print by thinking about a microwave, the letter “Y” and the number 39 since that is the number of it on the periodic table. Well the idea was just putting together a drawling that would match the element Yttrium. I really didn’t have any thoughts for the project. And I really wouldn’t do anything to change it because I like the project the way it is.
