Yes it is a metal.It belongs to the group of transition metals which have the characteristics of being ductile and malleable and conduct electricity and heat too.

What is ununbium state at room temperature?

Ununbium (element 112) is a synthetic superheavy element with no known stable isotopes. At room temperature, ununbium would likely exist in a solid state due to its high atomic number, but specific properties such as melting and boiling points are not well-established.


Does ununbium have a color?

Ununbium, which is now known as Copernicium, is a synthetic element created in a laboratory and does not occur naturally. Its appearance is not well documented, but it is expected to be a silvery color based on its position in the periodic table.


Who discovered ununbium?

Ununbium was discovered by a research team led by scientists from the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia in 1999. They conducted experiments to create the element by bombarding californium-249 with calcium-48 ions.


Is ununbium a metal metalloid or nonmetal?

It is most likely a solid at room temperature, based on its atomic weight. Usually the heavier the atom is the higher its melting point. However: Uub is directly below Hg. It's possible that the same relativistic effects that make mercury liquid at room temperature would affect Uub as well. In practical terms it doesn't matter. No more than a few atoms of Uub have ever been made, and with a half-life of 240 microseconds, the chances of ever accumulating enough of the material for its physical state to make any difference whatsoever are essentially nil.


How discovered the element ununbium?

All of the "Unun" elements we're created in particle accelerators by smashing to larger elements together. By doing so, they created new elements like "Unb" that last for only a fraction of a second. In case you were wondering, all the elements with "Ununs" are placeholder names for further names.
