Borhium- Neils Bohr
Curium- Pierre and Marie Curie
Einsteiniun- Albert Einstein
Fermium- Enrico Fermi
Gallium- although named after Gallia (Latin for France), the discoverer of the metal, Lecoq de Boisbauran, subtly attached an association with his name. Lecoq (rooster) in Latin is gallus.
Lawrencium- Ernest Lawrence
Meitnerium- Lise Meitner
Mendelevium- Dmitri Mendeleev
Nobelium- Alfred Nobel
Roentgenium- Wilhelm Roentgen
Rutherfordium- Ernest Rutherford
Seaborgium- Glenn T. Seaborg
Einstein has the element Einsteinium named after him.
The element rutherfordium is named in honor of Ernest Rutherford. It is not a naturally occurring element, and was synthesized in a nuclear reaction, but is unstable.
Element 106 was named seaborgium after Glenn T. Seaborg, an american scientist who won the 1951 Nobel Peace Prize in Chemistry. Einsteinium was named for German physicist Albert Einstein, however, he gained American citizenship and worked for the American government.
Because Albert Einstein was a very known physicist, a Nobel Prize laureate.
Rutherfordium is a chemical element with symbol Rfand atomic number 104, named in honor of New Zealand physicist Ernest Rutherford. It is a synthetic element (an element that can be created in a laboratory but is not found in nature) and radioactive; the most stable known isotope, 267Rf, has a half-life of approximately 1.3 hours.
It seems to me that the element called "oxygen" is not named after another element and that the element is most likely named by itself.
The Synthetic Element Nobelium was named for Him.
Einsteinium. It is element 99 and has an atomic weight of 252.
That would be Niels Bohr.
Because Albert Einstein was a very known physicist, a Nobel Prize laureate.
Einsteinium
The element name from American President is fictional and is called "Liberty."
Einsteinium wasn't named after a what, but a who. This element was named in honor of Albert Einstein.
Rutherfordium has the name of Rutherford Hayes but was named for the physicist Ernest Rutherford .
The name of the element einsteinium is derived from the name of the great well-known physicist of Jewish origin - Albert Einstein.Curium was named after the Curie family of scientists.
The name of the element einsteinium is derived from the name of the great well-known physicist of Jewish origin - Albert Einstein.
It was named after Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, a German physicist most famous for the discovery of X-Rays
The name of the chemical element meitnerium is derived from the name of the important physicist of Jewish origin - Lise Meitner (1878-1968).
Element 106 was named seaborgium after Glenn T. Seaborg, an american scientist who won the 1951 Nobel Peace Prize in Chemistry. Einsteinium was named for German physicist Albert Einstein, however, he gained American citizenship and worked for the American government.
