U+9567 "镧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+9567 "镧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the chemical element lanthanum, a soft, silvery-white rare earth metal with the atomic number 57, which belongs to the lanthanide series. In modern Chinese, it is used primarily in scientific contexts, such as in chemistry and materials science, to denote the element in compounds and terminology. The character itself is composed of the metal radical "钅" on the left, indicating its metallic nature, and the phonetic component "阑" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation "lán". Originating from the adoption of Western chemical elements into Chinese in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, "镧" was created as a specialized character, reflecting the systematic approach of Chinese lexicography to naming newly discovered substances.
