What is an atomic symbol?
An atomic symbol is a 1-, 2-, or 3-letter code that represents an element. If the symbol consists of one letter, like carbon (C), the letter is capitalized. If the symbol consists of two letters, like magnesium (Mg), the first letter is capitalized, but the second letter is not. The 3-letter codes are for elements that have been recently synthesized and have not been given a permanent name, and for elements that have yet to be synthesized, both of which are given temporary systematic names based on their atomic numbers. An example is element 115, with the symbol Uup, which is currently named ununpentium, which means one, one, five. Eventually this element will be given a permanent name with either a 1-letter or 2-letter symbol.
