Carbon! Because when you apply loads of pressure to it, it turns in to diamonds!

I like gallium because it has a low melting point, so it will melt if you hold it in your hand! It’s also used to make blue and purple LEDs, so it’s my favourite.

Hydrogen … it’s number one!
Also as a physicist it is the simplest atom and therefore the one we can “solve” exactly. Even helium is already a bit too complicated to be solved perfectly.

A periodic table is a table of all the elements that scientists have found. An element is a substance of some sort, whether it be a solid liquid or gas, that is at its purist form. Basically it cannot be broken down any further. My favourite element is Praseodymium (Pr). I like this because it sounds cool and it is used to make fighter jets
