Transcript : Chemistry in its element: palladium Promo You're listening to Chemistry in its element brought to you by Chemistry World , the magazine of the Royal Society of Chemistry. End promo Meera Senthilingam This week, an element whose discovery was announced in a very unique way. Simon Cotton For the first 5 years of my life, I lived in the Norfolk market town that was the birthplace of the discoverer of palladium, William Hyde Wollaston.
Meera Senthilingam Quite the catalyst that palladium! Next week, an element that certainly doesn't deserve to be called boring. Bright, shiny palladium is the substance that gives white gold its silvery color and it is also an essential component of catalytic converters and fuel cells. Palladium was first discovered in and was named after an asteroid. Soon after, it became a metal more rare than platinum or gold.
Other palladium mines are scattered across Canada and South Africa. Along with iridium, osmium, ruthenium, rhodium, and platinum, Palladium is considered to be a part of the platinum group.
These 6 metals are excellent catalysts that are known to speed up chemical reactions. Palladium dichloride PdCl 2 , a palladium compound, can absorb large amounts of carbon monoxide CO gas and is used in carbon monoxide detectors. Estimated Crustal Abundance : 1.

History of Palladium Palladium was discovered in by chemist William Hyde Wollaston who, at the time, was experimenting with purifying platinum. Modern Uses of Palladium Although it was not very well understood at the time of its discovery, palladium now has many important functions in the modern technological age.
Electronics The second most common use of palladium is in electronics. Technology Since hydrogen diffuses easily through heated palladium, the element is useful in the purification of hydrogen. Hydrogen storage Hydrogen is a highly unstable element, making it difficult to store safely.
