the sybols come from latin and german he germans are big into chemistry and they named some of them and the romans were the first to find these elements and they named them in latin and we changed the real name but none of the symbols
The actinides are a series of 15 radioactive elements, the group gets its name from the element Actinium. The elements are Actinium, Thorium, Protactinium, Uranium, Neptunium, Plutonium, Americium, Curium, Berkelium, Californium, Einsteinium, Fermium, Mendelevium, Nobelium and Lawrencium. Six of the elements of this group got their names from renowned scientists, Curium was named after Marie and Pierre Curie; the Einsteinium was named after Albert Einstein; Fermium was named after Enrico Fermi; the Mendelevium was named after Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev; the Nobelium after Alfred Nobel and Lawrencium is named after Ernest Lawrence.
Einsteinium, Lawrencium, and Californium are three elements that were named after the same place.
Americium and Europium are the elements named for large regions which include several countries.
The chemical symbol for Gold (Au) is based on its Latin name Aurum, not for its English name Gold. Most elements symbols match their English names, some don't - examples: Silver (Ag) is named for Argentum Iron (Fe) is named for Ferrum Sodium (Na) is named for Natrum Tungsten (W) is named for Wolfram
Some elements are named after the compound that they came from, or some attribute of it. Other elements are named after some aspect of the way in which the element was found. Still, there are other elements that get their names from places. Another interesting group of names comes from mythology. -Nev Singhota
99 elements have been identified and named and given 2 letter symbols. 13 elements have 1 letter symbols. Additional elements have been theorized, but not synthesized or named, and have 3 letter symbols. See Wikipedia Periodic Tables, linked.
The elements and their symbols that were discovered by Glenn T. Seaborg's group were: plutonium (94) americium (95), curium (96), berkelium (97), californium (98), einsteinium (99), fermium (100), mendelevium (101), nobelium (102), and seaborgium (106).
See link. It has all the symbols for all the planets.
It does have a name. Group 16 elements are called "chalcogens".
Many elements names are of Greek and Latin words. Some elements are name after where named after countries like France, German ect.

These elements are called Halogens. Cl,Br,I,F belongs to this group.
There is no group named 'you' in the periodic table.the groups in the periodic table are numbered, and have names that identify the general class of elements in that group, e.g. 'halogens'.See this question/answer for more details: What_are_the_group_names_in_the_periodic_table
