>Vanadium compounds are poorly absorbed through the gastrointestinal system. Inhalation of vanadium and vanadium compounds results primarily in adverse effects on the respiratory system.[85][86][87] Quantitative data are, however, insufficient to derive a subchronic or chronic inhalation reference dose. Other effects have been reported after oral or inhalation exposures on blood parameters,[88][89] liver,[90] neurological development,[91] and other organs[92] in rats

is this how mexicans boot their bootleg sweatshop toys?

Reminder that "Finland's" element was discovered in Sweden by a Swedish-speaking Swedish citizen employed at a Swedish university in a mineral discovered in Sweden by a Swedish colleague of his.

A spaniard-mexican living in Mexico making his discovery in Mexico City and dying there after being a founding father of the College of Mines in Mexico and the base for the current Institute of Geology of the University of Mexico. His work and his liberal politics were important to the building of an independent Mexican nation.

Does Behçet's disease count as an element?

>Polonium
>discovered by a Polish woman and literally named after Poland

It was discovered in France by a French citizen born in Russia.

>French citizen born in Russia.
Who spoke Polish and strongly identified as Polish. Fuck off, Sven.

Poland was not a country back then
If some sorbish minority in Germany discovers something, it still counts as a German invention

My country has created the Table itself.

>Naming an element after your own country / town

This is how you know you're insecure

If a Swedish Sami scientist discovers something and then a hundred years later the country Sápmi is formed, the discovery does not retroactively become attributed to Sápmi.

Maybe if you only have that one element, but when you have 20 or so, some of them will inevitably be named after places.

>Yttrium
>Terbium
>Erbium
>Ytterbium
>Holmium
>Scandium
>Thulium
Are the ones we named after places.

>Poland was not a country back then
But Polish nationality didn't fucking cease to exist, you stupid german ape.

Neither did the Jewish nationality, but you don't see the flag of Israel on 'murrica's discoveries, do you?
