laila [671]
You will need a periodic table to help you answer this problem. The atomic numbers are arrange from lowest to highest in the periodic table. You can locate element number 55 to be Cesium with an atomic weight of 132.905 amu. So, you start from element 56. The following elements are:

56     Barium       137.328 amu
57     Lanthanium   138.905 amu
58     Cerium       140.116 amu
59     <span>Praseodymium    140.908 amu
60     Neodymium   144.243 amu

Neodymium is already greater than 144 amu. Therefore, these elements only include Barium, Lanthanium, Cerium and Praseodymium.</span>
