What is the heavist element in the periodic table?
The heaviest stable element is bismuth, atomic number 83, atomic weight 208.9804). Any heavier element is radioactive, which means it decays into lighter elements - uranium, the heaviest naturally occurring element, will eventually decay into lead-207.
Is hydrogen the heaviest element?
If we are talking about elements here, hydrogen is not the heaviest. In fact, hydrogen is the lightest element. There are two ways of answering this question, depending on how you define 'heaviest'. The heaviest element in terms of heaviest per a given number of atoms is the element with the highest atomic weight. This is the element with the largest number of protons, which is presently element 118, ununoctium. When a heavier element is discovered (e.g., element 120), then that will become the new heaviest element. Ununoctium is the heaviest element, but it is man-made. The heaviest naturally-occurring element is uranium (atomic number 92, atomic weight 238.0289). Another way to look at heaviness is in terms of density, which is mass per unit volume. Either of two elements can be considered the element with the highest density: osmium and iridium. The density of the element depends on many factors, so there isn't a single number for density that would allow us to identify one element or the other as the most dense. Each of these elements weigh approximately twice as much as lead. The calculated density of osmium is 22.61 g/cm3 and the calculated density of iridium is 22.65 g/cm3, though the density of iridium has not been experimentally measured to exceed that of osmium.
Which man made element is the heaviest?
This element is ununoctium - atomic number 118.
Heaviest man made element as of 2004?
Ununoctium - atomic number 118.
Worlds heviest man- made element?
This element is ununoctium - atomic number 118; uuo is an artificial element. I suppose that you think to atomic mass and not to density.
Which is the heaviest radioactive element?
The heaviest natural radioactive element is Uranium.Man made elements are continuously being made. The latest heaviest superheavyweight man made element to be discovered is element 117 (it is still so new that it hasn't been given a name yet).A little different bit of information about Fermium, a team has captured a piece of its spectrum-the wavelengths of light it absorbs-making it the heaviest element ever to be so measured. It was made in the 1952 detonation of the first thermonuclear bomb. It does not make it as the heaviest element, just the heaviest to have it's light spectrum captured.
What is the heaviest naturally found element on the periodic table?
I think this is a trick question. The heaviest NATURAL element is Uranium (#92) but there are several heavier man-made ones. Every couple of years they are able to make another heavier one and IT becomes the heaviest. So I think the answer should be "there is no HEAVIEST element in the periodic table - it keeps changing."
The heaviest element found in nature is?
I believe it is Uranium. All elements heavier than uranium are man-made. Here's an interesting article... http://space.newscientist.com/article/dn13828-has-the-heaviest-element-been-found.html
What is the heaviest substance?
I think it is blue whale. I hope this helped. ^_^
What is Manuel Uribe best known for?
Manuel Uribe is a man living in Mexico. He is best known for being on the television documentary 'The World's Heaviest Man' as one of the heaviest humans. Since then, he's had significant weight loss and overcome his morbid obesity.
What is the hardest element known to man?
Diamonds.
What is the heaviest mineral?
Possibly titanium, but I don't have a degree in science so if I'm wrong then don't blame me.
