Oganesson!
Oganesson Og 118
Atomic Mass: 294
State: Solid
Discovery: 2006 (teams from Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna, Russia and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, California, USA)
The final member of the periodic table is oganesson. Its atoms have the highest number of protons, electrons, and neutrons of any element discovered so far.
The heaviest element oganesson; scientists think it would be solid at room temperature, but it may really be an unreactive, noble gas. However, only a few atoms have been created so far, so its properties are not well understood.
Oganesson was first produced by smashing californium and calcium atoms together.
Discovery: Discovered in 2002 by US and Russian scientists, only few atoms of oganesson have ever been produced.
Name: This artificial element is named after Russian nuclear physicist Yuri Oganessian, for his contributions in the discovery of 12 elements.
Electrons: It’s predicted that oganesson is so heavy that its electrons lose their usual shell structure.
