atomic number 60
Noun: A yellow trivalent metallic element of the rare earth group; occurs in monazite and bastnasite in association with cerium and lanthanum and praseodymium. It is a chemical element with the symbol Nd and the atomic number 60.
This term is used exclusively in scientific contexts, specifically in chemistry, physics, and materials science, to refer to the specific chemical element neodymium by its defining property—its atomic number. * The magnet is made from an alloy containing atomic number 60. * Atomic number 60 is crucial for the production of powerful permanent magnets.
- In Periodic Table Context: The term precisely identifies the element's position in the periodic table, which determines its chemical properties.
- Elements are ordered on the periodic table by their atomic number; atomic number 60 is neodymium.
- Neodymium (Nd): The common name for the element represented by atomic number 60.
- Neodymium magnets are made from an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron.
- Rare-earth element: The category of metallic elements to which atomic number 60 belongs.
- Neodymium (atomic number 60) is one of the most commercially important rare-earth elements.
- Neodymium: The standard name for the element.
- Nd: The chemical symbol for the element.
This term has only one specific, technical meaning: it is the formal identifier for the chemical element neodymium based on the number of protons in its atomic nucleus. It is not used in everyday language.
