What Are The Four New Elements On The Periodic Table?

Groups of scientists from all over the world created four new elements, but they only exist for a short time and only in a lab. So what can these elements do?

“IUPAC announces the verification of the discoveries of four new chemical elements: The 7th period of the periodic table of elements is complete.”

Superheavy Element 117 Points to Fabled “Island of Stability” on Periodic Table
“Physicists have created one of the heaviest elements yet, an atom with 117 protons in its nucleus. This jumbo-sized atom sits on the outer reaches of the periodic table where bloated nuclei tend to become less and less stable.”

Less than a thousand of a second? "We did i- damn...there it goes"

Let me know when Adamantium and Mithril are created

[Kalleballe]

call 115 Lazarium (I don't say its aliens but aliens)

[AvailableUsernameTed]

The element created by the Japanese team should have been called 'Godzillium'.

Stable Element 115 is my favorite because it can be used to produce antigravity waves which are great for bending spacetime

IUPAC announced the 4 elements last month (Nov. 28, 2016) by given their names:
Nihonium (Nh - 113)
Moscovium (Mc - 115)
Tennessine (Ts - 117)
Oganesson (Og - 118)

My favorite element is mercury. As a young teen in high school in 1951, my science teacher gave me samples of different elements to use in the Museum of Science and Industry Science Fair in Chicago. I found the metal liquid amazing and played with it for hours. I learned a few years ago that a Chinese emperor had made an underground city with rivers of mercury to mimic water. I have also learned that mercury is dangerous to handle. I wonder if they have tried mercury with another element in their tests.

Youtubium. It would have the lifespan of a dank meme. Mwahahahaha!!

[brydenwinsby]

if it came and went so fast they should call it "prematurium"

[waxandwayne]

115 Should be called "LAZARINUM"

I memorized the periodic table for fun back in 6th grade we never had to do it for class

How much will the elements dlc cost? and is there a season pass?

[juannunez]

Can we name one of the new elements Unobtainium? That would be great.

I feel like bromine is a cool element. An element you can have a beer with .

[michaelpritchard]

This is awesome! You knew they were there, and now we have people who've made em. Outstanding work, humanity.

Praseodymium. Because I loved the way Carl Sagan pronounced it on the original 'Cosmos'.

Do please let us know when they are considered sexist to women.

What a mouth full. And a brain full. How did you get through this video Julia?

[almonzerfayyadh]

They have been in my chemistry book for more than 2 years wtf ?
