11. There are many elements in the periodic table that are named after the country, where they were first
made or obtained. For example, the Latin name for copper was coined by the Romans because their
chief source of copper was from the Island of Cyprus. However, there is one country in the world
which was named after an element (the Latin name). A long time ago, it was believed that this country
had mountains full of a valuable element, however all expeditions to find these mountains failed. But
the name stuck on. The element in question is used for many applications today, and many of its
compounds are used as catalysts. The ions of this metal have very good anti-microbial property and
finds application in water purification. The element is
