"Say hello to the chemical element Platinum. Platinum (Pt) is a dense malleable and highly unreactive transition metal with the atomic number XX. Platinum is so rare that all the platinum ever mined would fit in an average-sized living room making it scarcer than gold Only about XXX tons are mined annually worldwide. It is silvery-white lustrous and belongs to the platinum group metals. Platinum is widely used in jewelry catalytic converters electronics and medical equipment due to its corrosion resistance and durability.

"Say hello to the chemical element Bismuth (Bi atomic number 83). Bismuth is used in alloys cosmetics pharmaceuticals (e.g. Pepto-Bismol) and as a non-toxic substitute for lead in applications like fishing weights and ammunition. Its compounds are also used in pigments and electronics. It's a brittle crystalline metal with a silvery-white appearance often displaying a pinkish or iridescent tarnish due to oxidation. It has a high density (9.78 g/cm) low thermal conductivity and is one of the least thermally conductive metals. Bismuth is weakly radioactive with an extremely long half-life of"

"Math. A tiling with squares whose side lengths are successive Fibonacci numbers. The numbers shown are XX XX X X X X and X which follow the Fibonacci sequence where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones (e.g. X X X X X X XX XX .) The Fibonacci numbers were first described in Indian mathematics as early as XXX BC in work by Pingala on enumerating possible patterns of Sanskrit poetry formed from syllables of two lengths. They are named after the Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa also known as Fibonacci who introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics in his 1202 book"
