Elemental Names

Speaking of which...I am studying sooo much chem these days that I can almost recall all the elements in the periodic table...haha just joking.

I realised tht most of our names can be "formed" with the initials of elements....so let me start with myself...

TYL --> Ta (Tantalum) Y (Yttrium) L (nothing) haha....so i am lan...no future. But the rest of you...all have futures!

KMK --> Potassium^2 Manganese

SYD --> Seaborgium (Sg) Yttrium (Y) D(deuterium)

YYH --> Yttrium^2 Hydrogen

CTX --> Carbon Titanium Xenon

Haha but the most interesting part of all is....Dian Yang has a an element that matches his initials exactly! It is in the lathanides series.... Dysprosium (DY).

And tin guo ran is tin... Sn....haha.....just joking la...

There are many slots left in the periodic table yet to be filled up.... ppl are still searching for them. If you have not realised, many elements are named after great inventors. I believe that in the future, one of our names may be on that periodic table too... or at least, our group name....

hqc---> more radioactive than any other material found on earth. Most chatty one of all. Most productive (efficient). Unique blend of items in it. INFINITE HALF LIFE. Yes...that shall be the description of hqc, if it ever exists....haha.
