=== Chemical Properties ===
Due to the merging of [[Ruin]] and [[Preservation]]'s [[Shard|intent]]s into Harmony, harmonium's [[Spiritual Realm|Spiritual aspect]] is in opposition with itself, leading to effects on the metal's [[Physical Realm|Physical aspect]], which makes it extremely reactive.{{wob ref|1663}}{{wob ref|2548}} It reacts violently with water, similar to [[wikipedia:Alkali_metal|alkali metals]]. After reacting with water, residual harmonium hydroxide is left behind, though the substance's properties are unknown.{{wob ref|12680}} The [[Southern Scadrian]]s use harmonium to create powerful bombs,{{book ref|mb6|22}} which the [[Set]] have been trying to replicate with limited success.{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}} InHarmonium corrodes and can react strongly in contact with the air; in order to prevent this reaction, it is stored within oil.{{book ref|mb7|13}}{{book ref|mb7|15}} It does not react with acids.{{book ref|mb7|13}}
 
It is soft and pliable like gold, especially when heated via flame or electricity.{{book ref|mb7|13}}{{book ref|mb7|15}} When heated by electricity and slowly drawn apart, a nugget of harmonium begins to separate, with the two parts beginning to take on the traits of atium and lerasium. However, when the string of metal between them is cut, both sides return to being mere harmonium.{{book ref|mb7|15}}
