Etymology
The word Cr stands for the element chromium, whose name comes from the Greek root chrōma meaning 'color' because many chromium compounds make bright colors. So Cr is easy to remember as the shiny, rust-resistant metal you see as chrome on cars and objects, and as a metal that does not easily lose its shine.
