The team at periodicvideos has created a TED-Ed Lesson for every element of the periodic table. In this video, we take a look at cadmium, a highly toxic element used on pots, pipes, and for all kinds of other applications.
When the impressionist painter, Claude Monet, was asked about the colors he used, he replied, "In short, I use white lead, cadmium yellow, vermilion, madder, cobalt blue, chrome green. That’s all."
