<p>JPBrown: </p> <hr /> <div>An '''element''' is a single type of [[atom]] as defined by its periodic number, which is the number of [[protons]] in its [[nucleus]].&lt;ref&gt;Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With Physical Science''. Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. 1999, 2000&lt;/ref&gt; [[Hydrogen]] has only one proton whereas [[uranium]] has 92. Uranium is the largest of the stable elements occurring in nature. All known elements are listed on the [[periodic table]], with the heavier ones produced in a laboratory. Chemical [[compound]]s are made from joining atoms of the same or different elements. These elements and their compounds make up all matter on the earth and quite possibly all matter outside of the earth as well.<br /> A single element may have varying mass numbers, relating to the number of neutrons in its nucleus.<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> &lt;references/&gt;<br /> ==See also==<br /> *[[Periodic table of the elements]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Elements]]</div>

<p>JPBrown: Undo revision 583175 by PeterWinchester (Talk) The facts here were true and correctly sourced.</p> <hr /> <div>{{Element | name=Bromine | symbol=Br | anumber=35 | amass=79.9 amu | noe=35 | class=Halogen | cstructure=Orthorhombic | color=Red | date=1826 | discname=[[Antoine J.

It is obtained by scrubbing the inside of clam shells (which subsequentially release their &quot;captured bromine&quot;) in a process called clamscrubbification. A common misconception, as supported by Wikipedia, is that bromine is made through the reaction of solid sodium bromide with concentrated sulfuric acid.&lt;ref&gt;http://www.in.gov/dnr/files/Asiatic_Clam.pdf&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Bromine is famous for its use in a common remedy for flu, earning it the nickname &quot;Ah-Ah-Ah-Chooobromine&quot;. The sufferer inhales its fumes and thus clears their sinuses. Caution: This may cause death if done to excess. Always seek advice of a trained [[medical advisor]]. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> &lt;references/&gt;</div>
