Hello,
Most people would be surprised to know just how many elements exist in their own homes! Here is a list of a couple of these elements you might find.
- Lithium
Often found in rechargeable batteries, lightweight and compact.
- Boron
This is found commonly in laundry detergent. It is apt for getting things as white as can be, due to their superior bleaching capabilities.
- Argon
This is often used as a preservative in most of our shelved goods. This includes soda, potato chip bags and such. It's component is generally common in the atmosphere.
- Bromine
This is an emulsifier and for a long time was found in certain canned drinks such as Mountain Dew. It is also commonly found in fire extinguishers
- Platinum
This is often found in catalytic converters. They are often cut out of and removed from cars due to their high value.
I hope this helps.
