  Aren’t all elements after Uranium radioactive? I expected a larger “fire” area.

    According to a comment on explainxkcd it’s half-life under 1 day for “fire”.

  I never thought to think bromine is a liquid at standard temperature and pressure, nor that it was one of only 2. Mostly thought to keep it at a safe distance.

    Gallium is pretty close. On a hot day it’d be liquid. But not most of the time in most places.

  Where’s the Quintessence go?

    Afaik, Quintessence in medieval alchemy was a very pure alcohol (although they believe that by distilling many times, they were in fact isolating this pure, heavenly element), no not something that can be put in the periodic table.
