See link. It has all the symbols for all the planets.
The NASA site in the related links has a nice chart of the symbols
I don't know how to reproduce them here on this site.
uranium is uranus and neptunium means Neptune .
The periodic table is for chemical elements, not for planets.
Some chemical elements are named after the names of planets: Mercury, uranium, plutonium, neptunium.
It is not possible because we need a differentiation between elements, including different chemical symbols.
The symbols of such elements are based on their Latin names. For example, the symbol Fe for iron comes from the Latin ferrum, meaning iron.
many of the first discovered elements were named by greek and roman philosophers
There are 92 elements that exist in nature*. Every heavier element has decayed before our time.Of course, there are more elements in the periodic table, but they are all synthetic elements-they were made in a laboratory. Theoretically, there is no limit on how heavy an element could become-you can always add a proton to the nucleus. However these synthetic elements exist only for a fraction of a second and only in particle accelerators. There are currently 115 known elements, 112 of which have been confirmed and are named (or in the process of being named).*If you extend the term "nature" to other planets and stars, than you will occassionally find more elements.
Chlorine = Cl Iron = Fe
None. Although Mercury, Uranium and Plutonium might seem to be named after planets they were not. They were named after ancient deities.
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.
Three elements named after places are Copper, Berkelium, and Californium
Mercury, Plutonium, Uranium
Mercury the element is not really named after mercury the heavenly body: both are named after the Roman messenger god, Mercury. Similarly it is unclear whether uranium is named after uranus the planet or Uranus the mythical Roman god. Neptunium and plutonium definitely are named after the planets, and there is also selenium, named after the moon, and helium, named after the sun.
Astronomy was studied carefully by the Greeks and Romans . They were great thinkers and in honour of their discoveries Greek names and symbols exist.
Many elements names are of Greek and Latin words. Some elements are name after where named after countries like France, German ect.
Mercury, Uranium, and Neptunium were named after Mercury, Uranus, and Neptune (respectively). Although technically not a planet, Plutonium was named after Pluto.
Mercury from both the planet and the Roman god; Uranium is named after the planet Uranus and Plutonium after the (former) planet Pluto; Neptunium, after the planet Neptune. Tellurium, element 52, gets its name from the Latin "tellus" meaning Earth. Not planets, but element 2, Helium is named from the Greek helios, Sun, and Selenium from the Greek selene, Moon.
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
All the elements listed on periodic table has symbols for them.There are total 118 elements in periodic table.
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
