The first 98 elements exist naturally, 20 synthetic elements have been created (those with atomic numbers 99-118). All are unstable, decaying with half-lives ranging from a year to a few milliseconds. As of 2013, the Periodic Table has 114 confirmed elements, comprising elements 1 (hydrogen) to 112 (copernicium), 114 (flerovium) and 116 (livermorium). Elements 113, 115, 117 and 118 have reportedly been synthesised in laboratories however none of these claims have been officially (wikipedia)

Elements can either be synthetic or natural. Synthetic elements are made artificially in laboratories, while natural elements exist in their natural state in nature. Natural elements can further be defined as native elements. These elements exist in their uncombined state.
