Yes, promethium will conduct electricity, but it is not as optimal a conductor as copper, silver, and gold. It has an electrical resistivity of 750 ohms per meter.
What is special about promethium?
Promethium is the only rare earth, radioactive metal on the periodic table, according to Chemicool. ... It can be produced by bombarding neodymium-146 with neutrons to become neodymium-147, which beta decays over its 11-day half-life into promethium-147, according to the Jefferson Laboratory.
Is promethium the strongest metal?
As a power source, volatile promethium is used as it can consume and produce electricity. We can say that promethium is "man's strongest metal." (Tungsten is known to be the strongest natural metal in real life, steel is the strongest alloy, and chromium is the hardest metal.)
