Yttrium Single Crystal 39Y88.905
Discovered in 1794 by J Gadolin at Åbo, Finland.
[Named after Ytterby, Sweden] French: yttriumGerman: yttrium
Italian: ittrio
Spanish: itrio
Description: Yttrium is a soft, silvery-white metal that is stable in air due to the formation of an oxide film on its surface. It burns if ignited, and is attacked by water and forms hydrogen. Yttrium is used in various ways: to give red colors in TV screens, in X-ray filters, superconductors and for superalloys.
