Bismuth is a white, crystalline, brittle metal with a pinkish
tinge. Bismuth is the most diamagnetic of all metals, and
the thermal conductivity is lower than any metal, except mercury.
It has a high electrical resistance, and has the highest Hall
effect of any metal (that is, the greatest increase in electrical
resistance when placed in a magnetic field).
