What products have elements from the perodic table?

What products have elements from the perodic table like sodium, copper, silver, potassium, nickel, iron, chlorine, etc... I need products that can be found at home. I have a project which requires 20 products from 20 different elements. It could be pure samples of that element, compound or mixture. I the project I need prove so I need the labels of the product.

1. Everything on Earth is made up of the elements in the periodic table. Take anything in your house and look at the label. The ingredients will mostly be compounds but you can look the compounds up on wikipedia and it will tell you what elements are in them.
2. Some specific products which contain specific elements are... Pepto bismol, contains bismuth. Borax contains boron. Tums contain calcium. Milk of Magnesia contains Magnesium. Many of the newer sunscreens contain titanium, in the form of titanium dioxide. Toothpaste contains fluorine. Multivitamins often contain any number of elemental minerals... pick one. Coke contains phosphorus, in the form of phosphoric acid. Many powdered herbs contain silicon as an additive to prevent caking in the form of silicon dioxide. Doritos contain sodium in salt and monosodium glutamate. Many juices contain potassium, (this will not be in the ingredients list, but in the nutrient analysis.) OK, that's all I could come up with off the top of my head. Good luck.
3. 1. Bleach contains chlorine 2. Silverware contains silver 3. Salt contains sodium 4. Bananas contain potassium 5. Cans contain aluminum 6. A paperweight contains lead 7. A frying pan contains iron 8. Pennies contain copper 9. A razor-sharp high-quality butchers knife can contain titanium 10. A roll of carbon paper contains carbon (I think) 11. A bag of fertilizer for the lawn contains nitrates 12. A can of Raid could contain freon perhaps 13. A balloon you got from the Fair has helium in it 14. A pencil contains graphite, if graphite even counts 15. A high quality pen can be 10 karat gold 16. Orange juice also has potassium 17. Windex has, I don't know, ammonia maybe? 18. Soap has something or other maybe some chlorine 19. Shampoo has something in it worth investigating 20. A television, inside at least, has parts of metals, chromium Close enough, hope it helps!
