ytterbium (nonferrous metal, <metal by composition or origin>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Rare metallic element, the penultimate in the lanthanide series, having the symbol Yb and atomic number 70. Ytterbium is a soft, lustrous silver-white metal. Some of its isotopes generate gamma rays when irradiated and are used as a radiation source-substitute for portable X-ray machines.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Zeldzaam metaalelement, het voorlaatste in de lanthanideserie, met symbool Yb en atoomnummer 70. Ytterbium is een zacht, glanzend zilverwit metaal. Sommige isotopen ervan genereren gammastraling wanneer ze bestraald worden, en worden gebruikt als vervangende stralingsbron voor draagbare röntgenapparaten. |
