Element 22 · Solid at room temperature
Titanium
Looks like: silvery grey-white metallic.
Titanium is atom number 22 — every Titanium atom has exactly 22 protons in its center, and that number is what makes it Titanium and nothing else. Its symbol is Ti. At room temperature it is a solid.
Titanium is a chemical element with symbol Ti and atomic number 22. It is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color, low density and high strength. It is highly resistant to corrosion in sea water, aqua regia and chlorine.
Summary from the source dataset, derived from Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 3.0) · original article
Titanium sits in period 4, group 4 of the d-block. Its 22 electrons fill shells of 2, 8, 10, 2 — written as [Ar] 3d2 4s2. Its electronegativity is 1.54 on the Pauling scale, and pulling the first electron off takes 658.8 kJ/mol. The outermost shell holds 2 electrons — the ones that do all the chemistry.
