It is the symbol for the element Ununquadium (atomic number 114)
Technically yes it does, however it may not in the future. Currently the only element with a Q in its name is Ununquadium. It is the temporary name of a radioactive chemical element in the periodic table that has the temporary symbol Uuq and has the atomic number 114. Recent chemistry experiments have strongly indicated that element 114 appears to behave as the first superheavy element to show noble-gas-like properties due to relativistic effects. In appearance, it is likely a metal, probably silvery white or metallic gray in color.

Elements in Group 14 on the Periodic Table have similar properties to carbon. These elements are carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). Each of these elements has two electrons in the outermost p orbital, the electron configuration ns2np2, and they tend to adopt oxidation sates of +4 (+2 for the heavier elements due to the inert pair effect). Silicon is most similar to carbon.
Their symbol is created from their name. For instance, Ununseptium is element number 117. The label on most tables would be Uus. These normally get a new symbol once a more "Proper" name has been introduced.
Carbon is a non metal. It react with oxygen to give an acidic oxide, and its compounds are molecular substances with covalent bonding. It has three pure forms (allotropes) which are diamond, buckminsterfullerene and graphite. The first two contain covalent bonds and do not conduct electricity, as you would expect for a non-metal, but graphite also contains a delocalised bond, which gives it some similarities to a metal, including good conduction of electricity.
Ununnilium(Unu), Ununbium(Uub), Ununquadium(Uuq), Ununhexium(Uuh), Ununoctium(Uuo)
Uub and Uuq are listed on most periodic tables as the heaviest elements. (You can check the number at the bottom of the box, that is its atomic mass or weight

The idiot before me wrote, : [Fl used to Fluorine, some old teachers might still use it. Now it goes by F.] Fl has never been used for fluorine, Fl is Flerovium (Previously Ununquadium (Uuq))

92 are natural and then another 26 or so that are artificially made such as Uuq or Ununquadium.
Non-metals are the elements in groups 14-16 of the periodic table. The nonmetals are Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur, and Selenium. The first two columns, the middle 9 columns except La and Ac on the periodic table are metals.
The most recently officially named element is Copernicium (Cn) on the 19th February 2010. The most recently officially IUPAC confirmed elements are Ununhexium (Uuh) and Ununquadium (Uuq). These are both yet to be officially named, but are officially confirmed, unlike the rest of the systematic placeholder named super-heavy elements.

Uuq is the temporary IUPAC systematic placeholder symbol for Ununquadium. It will stay like this until the IUPAC decide on a name and symbol for it.
