Recent discoveries of elements (Nuclear Chem) (1 Viewer)

[-USERNAME-]

So with the syllabus point "1.5.2 Process information from secondary sources to describe recent discoveries of elements" what period do they determine as "recent". I was considering doing the creation of Americium but that was in the 1940s. Is that too old? It seems like all the more recent ones don't have any real uses and just exist shortly before decaying.

it says describe recent discoveries, I've got Uuo and Uuh (Discovered in the 2000s). I think they want you to describe like how element x was bombarded with element y to produce element z

Don't use Uuo - it's not really confirmed so you can't call it a "recent discovery".

As for Uuh, don't called it Uuh - it is called Livermorium, as of 2012.

Alternatively, you could also do element 114, Flerovium, also, as of 2012.

Thanks for the heads up

can you use californium? since we have to know the equation anyway?
