Interesting Facts
- 223 Francium has the longest half life at 21.8.
- Francium metal is produced by alpha decay in 227Actinium 227.
  
- Dysprosium acts stable in air at room temperature.
- Dysprosium behaves very much like paramagnetic metal.

Uses & Benefits
- Francium has no known uses as it has a half life of only 22 minutes.
  
- Dysprosium metal is highly reactive due to which it pure form is not as usual as its alloy.
-
Thi metals alloy is used in magnate as it is resistance to high temperature.
