Kr - Krypton

The rare gas krypton (and neon, xenon and radon.) was extracted by William Ramsey and M. W. Travers from liquid air in 1898. The name krypton means hidden. Known compounds include a hydrate, deuteride and the difluoride. In 1960 it was internationally agreed that the fundamental unit of length, the metre, should be defined as 1 m = 1,650,763.73 wavelengths (in vacuo) of the orange-red line of Kr-33. Under normal conditions krypton is colourless, odourless, fairly expensive gas. Solid krypton is a white crystalline substance with a face-centered cubic structure which is common to all the "rare gases".
