Bismuth is atomic element No. 83 on the periodic table of elements.

Bismuth has many interesting properties. It is the highest numbered atomic element with a stable, non-radioactive isotope. Bismuth has a relatively low melting point, 520.3 degrees fahrenheit, making it useful for alloying with other metals. Bismuth is an organically-safe substitute for lead; for instance, in non-toxic shot for shotgun shells.

One property of Bismuth is it's diamagnetism. In short - and over simplistically speaking - Bismuth repels magnets! This characteristic makes bismuth a great component of magnetic levitation experiments.
