For international standard, names are approved for and used by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. For each country, it is up to the head department in charge of similar aspects to decide (often through common and historic usage).
The family name for the element sulfur is the chalcogens.
The name of the character played by Milla Jovovich in the movie "The Fifth Element" is Leeloo.
Because U is the first letter of the name uranium.
For carbon, each element box contains the element's name, symbol, atomic number, atomic mass, and electron configuration. For hydrogen, the box includes the element's name, symbol, atomic number, atomic mass, and electron configuration.
An element symbol is a one or two-letter abbreviation used to represent an element in the periodic table. Each element is assigned a unique symbol based on either the element's name in English or its Latin name. For example, "H" represents hydrogen, "O" represents oxygen, and "Au" represents gold.
Yes. IUPAC - The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemists usually approve these.
Flerovium, or element 114, which was known as ununquadium before this. It may be worth noting that the name has not officially been approved yet, though it is in the IUPAC approval process.
Yes they need to be approved by the IUPAC - The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemists. This is for standardisation purposes. Usually elements are named after the place or person who discovered/isolated them.
I don't think it is possible to copyright a name. If the person gets the name approved, I don't think anyone can sue over it.
Nowadays, UIPAC decides whether a name given to an element will become the standard or not. Generally, they have been giving names based on the element's number. A science teacher of mine tells me that this was originally to settle disputes between groups of people who thought they had discovered an element "first".
The chemical symbols are approved by IUPAC; symbols are derived from the name of the chemical element in Latin, frequently the first two letters.
