  1. Elements Project - Strontium By: Alexandra Nictakis Period: Science - 1st

  2. Properties of strontium • Category-Alkaline Earth Metals • Density- 2.64 grams per cubic centimeter • Reactivity- When combined with oxygen it acts like rust, but when it is combined with carbon it is used in common household items

  3. Melting Point: 777 degrees Celsius or 1431 degrees Fahrenheit Boiling Point: 1382 degrees Celsius or 2520 degrees Fahrenheit State of matter: Solid Atomic Mass:87.62 Properties of strontium

  4. History Slide Discovered by: Adair Crawford Discovered in: 1790 How: A mineral sample in a mine Other Fact: It was named after the village it was first found in, Strontian, Scotland.
