Why is Potassium in French and English not called Kalium? This fits my native language (dutch), where Potassium is called "Kalium" The same question applies to Sodium (Na), which again in Dutch is called "Natrium" A quick look at Wikipedia showed that Potassium is mainly used as a word in Roman based languages (French, Spanish) and to my surprise in English What is the history behind this?
Element Names in English - Chemistry Stack Exchange Na - Sodium - Natrium K - Potassium - Kalium W - Tungsten - Wolfram Sb - Antimony - Stibium and so forth [English only] Why do we not use the names that match the symbols?
When was the symbol for potassium changed from Ka to K? The symbol for potassium was mostly K in the English speaking world and even some old German book use K (as early as 1829 search Kalium in this book) So there was no official change from Ka to K, because both symbols were concurrently used in various parts of the world, just one symbol, Ka, wiped out of fashion
Why do the names of most chemical elements end with -um or -ium? The names sodium and potassium were changed to natrium and kalium All metallic elements discovered after this date ($1811$) have been given names ending in - ium (occasionally - um) Examples are cadmium, lanthanum, lithium, thallium, radium This is also why helium has the suffix The name helium is anomalous
Gallium Electrolysis - Chemistry Stack Exchange The school has liquid N2, I'm pretty sure one of my professors would let me try it They've been pretty helpful with this essentially pointless project so far Not sure they'll be as accommodating when the fall semester starts and they have to start teaching again What about the electrolysis set up at room temp forming molten gallium?
Synthesis of Potassium Trioxalatoaluminate (III) Trihydrate The equations proposed by Lin footling are incorrectly written In the three starting equations, the number of H atoms are never the same on the left hand side and on the right hand side of the equations The number of K atoms are also often wrong So the equations are wrongly written
