Strontium was recognized as a new element in 1790 when Adair Crawford analyzed a mineral sample from a lead mine near Strontian, Scotland. Until then scientists had thought strontium and barium were the same element, and only bariumâs existence had been recognized. The mineral took its name from the Scottish town and was called strontianite (strontium carbonate).
Strontium is a chemical element with symbol Sr and atomic number 38. An alkaline earth metal, strontium is a soft silver-white or yellowish metallic element that is highly reactive chemically.The metal turns yellow when it is exposed to air.0Sr has been used as a power source for radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs). 90 Sr produces approximately 0.93 watts of heat per gram (it is lower for the form of 90 Sr used in RTGs, which is strontium fluoride).
