>>>> Some “Outstanding Award” Articles –
[Fig 2.1] -- Outstanding Award (Oct-2018) .... Bromine (Br, 35)...
Wong Kristie Zhi Yu [St. Paul’s Convent School]
Reason for selection – As the only non-metallic liquid element, bromine has always intrigued me. Though it is so volatile, there have been many uses for it. I find its history, discovery and applications highly interesting.

[Fig 2.2 -- Outstanding Award (Oct-2018): Oxygen (O, 8)
Wong Sin Tung [True Light Girls’ College]
Reason for selection – Oxygen is essential for life. Further, it is intimate with us in many aspects of our daily life activities. Quite ordinary but special in many senses. It’s just all around us.

[Fig 2.3a -- Outstanding Award (Nov-2018) :... Neon (Ne, 10)
Tang Ka Man Katrina [St. Rose of Lima’s College]
Reason for selection – I choose Neon because Neon and November both start with letter “N”. Also, although neon does present in the atmosphere, we seldom study more on it. Therefore, I want to know more about neon through this work.

[Fig 2.3b -- Outstanding Award (Nov-2018) :.... Tellurium (Te, 52) – The rarest element on Earth which has garlic smell.
Yuen Lok Yiu Vera [St. Paul’s Convent School]
Reason for selection – How rare tellurium is on Earth attracts me to understand more about it. I hope to discover the interesting and unique facts behind its ordinary appearance.

[Fig 2.4 -- Outstanding Award (Dec-2018) :... Arsenic, As (33)
Chan Wai Ming [St. Paul Convent’s School]
Reason for selection – I chose this element because I would like to find out another side of Arsenic, since lots of people may think that Arsenic is toxic. However, on the other side of the coin, it is a significant component in the treatment of curing the patients with APL. Moreover, its compounds are used to make pesticides which benefit the farmers. It can also benefit the world. So, don’t judge an ‘element’ by just one of its ‘properties’.

[Fig 2.5] – Outstanding Award (Dec. 2018): IYPT Daily Republican: Mercury – the dreadfully beautiful element (Hg, 80) ... Lau Ying Shun [St. Rose of Lima’s College]
Reason for selection: I am fascinated by mercury’s exceptionally shiny appearance and uses. I think mercury contributes a lot to our society but it is underrated. People often connect mercury with mirrors only. Therefore I’d like to introduce this element by imitating vintage newspaper.

[Fig. 2.6] – Outstanding Award (Jan-2019), Rubidium (Rb, 37) ...
Au Yeung Sum Wing [ St. Paul’s Convent School]
Reason for selection – As the new year has come, fireworks show must be the essential element of a new year celebration. As purple is my favourite colour, I would like to choose among the elements used to create this striking purple colour in the sky. I chose Rubidium because this element is not commonly known like potassium. I really learnt a lot by doing this.

[Fig 2.7] Outstanding Award (Jan, 2019) ... Darmstadtium (Ds, 110): 2019 Newly Formed Boy Band
Rachel Kwok [St. Rose of Lima’s College]
Reason for selection: I think Ds is suitable to depict me and many youngsters nowadays. Although they seem aimless to life in future, we are full of different potentials and we have different unpredictable reactions with different things. Just like Ds, it can have unexpected chemical reactions with different chemicals. Many of them even haven't been discovered by scientists.

[Fig. 2.8] Outstanding Award (Feb, 2019) – The Valentine’s Element – Vanadium (V, 23).
Suen Hoi Ying Amada [Maryknoll Convent School (Sec. Section)].
{-- also has won 5 awards in 7-months’ entries including two Best Awards in Nov-2018 and Jan-2019!!! }
Reason for selection – Valentine’s Day is a day in February dedicated to love, and the name of the element Vanadium is derived from Vanadis, name of the Scandinavian goddess of love. Also, the metal aquo complexes of vanadium are very colourful, which can symbolize the beauty and colour of love. That is why vanadium is the chosen element for February.

[Fig. 2.9] Outstanding Award (Mar,2019) – Element Profile (Po, 84)
Chau Karena Hei Lam [St. Paul Convent School].
Reason for selection: International Women’s Day is on the 8th of March, it is a day to celebrate womanhood. And Polonium was discovered by Marie Curie. She is a female scientist who was very uncommon in the old days. March reminds me of the success of Marie Curie, this is why I choose Polonium as the element of the month (March).

[Fig 2.10] Outstanding Award (Mar, 2019) ... Come Follow Hafnium’s IG account...
Tang Cheuk Man [St. Paul’s Convent School]
Reason for selection: Hafnium’s existence was predicted in March by Dmitri Mendeleev when he first published the Periodic Table in 1869. Moreover, it seems to be inconspicuous among the 118 discovered elements, but the fact that hafnium and zirconium are like ‘twins’ prompted my interest. They are almost similar in every way. They are the impurities of each other, they are two of the most difficult elements to separate and even hafnium is discovered in zirconium! This arouses my curiosity and I want to know more about this element.

[Fig. 2.11] Outstanding Award (Apr, 2019) .... “He” has risen. ...
Chow Lok Yee Ashley [St. Paul’s Convent School].
Reason for selection : Since April is the month of Easter when we commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus, I chose the element Helium with the chemical symbol “He”. ‘He’ is noble and is everywhere in the universe just like Jesus. ‘He’ rises up into the sky and heavens on Easter Sunday. In this month, let all praises be unto He, Helium.
