You Decide Could Metals Become Extinct?
In 2015, the American Chemical Society published this “Periodic Table of Endangered Elements”:
- a. Is it really possible for a metal to become “extinct”?
- b. Which of the highlighted elements above are currently in demand for energy storage devices (batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors)?
- c. Are there any non-highlighted elements that are currently being used, or tested for future use, in energy-storage applications?

Part A
Julia spent $50 on a book. The cost of the book was $18 less than twice what she spent on a
backpack. How much did the backpack cost?
Express your answer numerically in dollars.
• View Available Hint(s)
Hint 1. Identify the mathematical equation
Hint 2. Identify the expression for the cost of the backpack
1) Describe why "new" elements (man-made elements) are created, or why do we benefit in creating them?
2) Explain why creating new elements is difficult.
3) In general, how are man-made elements created (give 2 examples).
4) Discuss generally how they differ from "natural elements". And give 2 examples of man-made elements.
5) And discuss whether you believe humans can "create" naturally occurring elements if we have a scarcity of those elements on earth (either because we're depleting them from earth or if they are not abundant).
