Currently, there are 117 total discovered elementsnumbering from 1 to 118. The missing number is 117, as Ununseptium has not yet been discovered, and no attempt to synthesize this element has been reported. The highest number therefore is 118, Ununoctium, and it is currently the only synthetic member of group 18 and has the highest atomic number and highest Atomic Mass assigned to a discovered element. The radioactive ununoctium (118) atom is very unstable, and since 2002, only three atoms of the isotope 294Uuo have ever been detected.
there are 51 natural elements we know of
If elements didn't bond, then all things we know today would not exist. For example, humans are a composition of billions of bonds and that would not be possible otherwise.
Approx. 60 000 000 compouds are known today.
As of 2014, there are 17 known rare earth elements. In the early 1800s, only 2 were know.
It is impossible to quantify the exact number of elements that make up everything we know and love, as it is a complex mix of experiences, memories, emotions, and relationships. It is the combination of various elements that contribute to our understanding and appreciation of the world around us.
I don'nt know the answer
I have been designed with a vast knowledge base. I can access information on millions of elements, including the periodic table of elements and common compounds.
there are 51 natural elements we know of
Probably you think at chemical elements; we know today 117 elements (112 elements were homologated now by IUPAC).
Today (July 2013) 118 chemical elements are known.
there are 118 elements as we know right now
118
Today are known 118 chemical elements; 98 are considered as natural elements (but some have also and an artificial origin).
"H" or Hydrogen is an element, there are no other elements in it because all elements are pure substances.
Today 94 elements (1 to 94) are considered natural chemical elements.
ninety-three
i don't know the scientist but it is the periodic table of the elements
