However, it is likely to have similar chemical properties to other elements in the lanthanide and actinide series. Fermium is a silver-white metal that is relatively stable in air. It has a density of 8.6 g\/cm3 and a melting point of 1539 \u00b0C. Fermium is radioactive and has a half-life of 2.6 \u00d7 1015 years. Fermium is not found in nature and can only be created in a laboratory.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uses_of_Fermium\"><\/span>Uses of Fermium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Fermium is a synthetic element that has a variety of applications. It is used in medical treatments, as well as in research laboratories.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most important uses of fermium is in medical treatments. It is used to treat certain types of cancer, as well as other diseases. Fermium is also used to produce radiation therapy. This therapy is used to kill cancer cells and other diseased cells.<\/p>\n<p>Fermium is also used in research laboratories. It is used to study the properties of atoms and molecules. Fermium is also used to study the effects of radiation on materials.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Fermium-256<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Fermium-256 is a synthetic, radioactive element that is produced in nuclear reactors.
