Xenon's atomic number is 54 and its symbol is Xe. Xenon is a colorless and odorless noble gas. There are only trace amounts of this rare noble gas in the atmosphere which makes it more expensive than most noble gasses. When electrified, it produces a light blue plasma.

Its main uses are in very bright specialized light bulbs. You may have also noticed xenon being used as an inert gas in your car's headlights. Xenon can also be used as a general anesthetic, but because of its cost, it is uncommon to see it used in this way.

The xenon in this cube element display is under vacuum. This means that if you put the cube next to an energy source such as a tesla coil, it glows a light blue color.

Safety

We get asked about the radioactivity and overall safety of the periodic tables/cubes from time to time. These are legitimate concerns and we wanted to address those concerns here. Although there are several elements in the cubes that are dangerous or toxic, the acrylic and glass ampules make the products safe to handle and store.

The average American is exposed to 0.034 mrem/hr from background radiation (300 mrem/year). In other words, a person will get three times the radiation from natural background radiation which includes the sun, food, radon, and the environment, than they will from holding a radioactive element in one of our Lucite Acrylic displays.

Care Instructions

Wash with mild soap or detergent and lukewarm water. Use a clean, soft cloth, or sponge. Rinse and blot dry with a damp cloth or chamois.

*Never use abrasive cleaners, household cleaners, window-cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths, or strong solvents such as alcohol, acetone, carbon tetrachloride, etc.*

To maintain the brilliant luster of acrylic, wax and occasionally with a quality grade of automobile paste wax (NOT A CLEANER WAX COMBINATION.) Apply a thin coat with a clean, cotton flannel cloth. Then wipe with a clean damp cloth. NEVER USE HOUSEHOLD SPRAY WAXES.

Proudly made in the U.S.A.
