Overview: 3-5 sentences about the elements. (physical and chemical properties) |
I have a melting point of 1907°C and boiling point of 2672°C. My wardrobe consists of lustrous steel-gray color which takes a high polish. I am hard and resistant to corrosion. I have a high melting point, stable crystalline structure, and moderate thermal expansion. All of my compounds are colored and are toxic.

Contributes in making and hardens steel. Gives emeralds green color and rubies their red color. Also helps regulate the amount of sugar in blood, which helps people with diabetes. Increases muscle mass and good cholesterol and decreases body fat and bad choleterol.

Credits towards chromium (me) for "polishing" the hubcap.
Iron+me=stainless steel :) Iron was tagged in this photo.
Self portrait.
I have the power to contol emeralds' color! Muahaha!
My Friends and I around the World
Lead and I got banned from school buses because of the harm we caused. Chromium and lead were tagged in this photo.
I love this picture!! Chromium, Iodine, and oxygen were tagged in this photo.
See the "T" shape? Zinc and I are together. Chromium and zinc were tagged in this photo.
I can make anything sparkle and shine! (That sounds like a slogan for a dentist)
I also give rubies their luxurious red color.
I was born in a simiar charcoal oven as this one. It was so cozy!

What is your relationship to emeralds?

Emeralds are a crystal of beryl that also contains chromium as an impurity. The presence of the chromium impurity makes the colorless beryl green. This is because the geometry of the emeralds atoms is a little different, as the host molecules interact with the chromium more weakly and the energy differences between the energy levels are reduced, producing green.
