Did you guys hear that Oxygen and Magnesium had a fight last night... OMg
You guys should thank me... without me, you wouldn't have cheese. Or milk.
Think about it. calciYUM and all that.

I don't think I can handle my fight with CO2 anymore...
it's dissolving me! (Seriously though, dude, you need to stop overREACTING.)

Overview:
3-5 sentences about the elements. (physical and chemical properties)

Hey guys! Calcium here! I'm a soft gray alkali earth metal, number 20 on the periodic
table and number one in keeping your bones healthy and strong. I'm the 5th most abundant
element in the earth's crust. I'm an important messenger between cells in living things. My most common state is solid. Solid like a rock. (But not really cuz I can be cut with a knife with some effort.)

My interests include making people's bones and teeth strong and healthy. I love hanging out with Oxygen, Carbon, Boron, and my other friends I like to spend time and BOND with.. hahahahahaaa......
|
Places: "check in" with at least three places the element can be found
|
Hey guys. Just been hanging with Oxygen at Earth's Crust! We helped out the paper industry.
|
Been at home watching "Cinderellament" (don't judge) with my neighbors Sodium, Potassium, Scandium, Rubidium, Strontium, and Yttrium. Yeah, I don't know what their parents were thinking. Those were definitely not on the 1800s most popular baby names list.... Magnesium was the only one not there, since she and Oxygen are still fighting. |
Whew! Sorry I'm really tired.. just came back from working in the body. Reenforcing those bones and teeth is hard! If only people would stop eating so much dairy and veggies. Yaaaawwwwn
