Does a newly discovered element name need to be approved?
Yes they need to be approved by the IUPAC - The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemists. This is for standardisation purposes. Usually elements are named after the place or person who discovered/isolated them.
Where was chemical element radium discovered?
The Curies published their paper, describing the newly discovered element -- that they named "radium" -- on 1898 December 26. Their work was conducted in Paris France.
What is the plural form for a newly discovered fish breed?
The pluralized form of the phrase "newly discovered fish breed" is "newly discovered fish breeds".
What canot be a proper symbol for an element?
The elements that are newly discovered or are radioactive and found in traces are usually named according to a system of nomenclature based on their atomic nos.Eg. element 243 (if discovered, some day) will be named as biquadtrium (Bqt) which is NOT the proper symbol/name for the element.
What element was recently found to have replaced Phosphorous in a newly discovered life-form?
Of all things it was arsenic which is actually a pretty lethal poison.
What is the name of the newly discovered element?
People say they have made the element unahexium but hasn't been confirmed and even if there has been and element confirmed its only stable for a few milliseconds before it decays into more stable elements.
What is the word origin of neon?
From Greek for new (neos) as it was a newly discovered element at the time (1898).
How are newly discovered elements named?
People decide on who gets the credit of discovering the new element, and then who gets the honor of naming it. Often times they name the new element after a place, country, scientist, or myths, etc.
What is the newly found element?
Boson
Why would it probably be very differnet to determine the chemical and physical properties of a newly discovered syntheic element?
Any newly discovered synthetic elements are extremely radioactive and have extremely short half-lives and only a few atoms at most can be produced. At the moment, science is not able to isolate enough for a long enough time. Therefore, it would be difficult to collect and keep enough of the element to determine its chemical and physical properties.
