Elements that are made by fusing existing elements with fast-moving particles are called what?

Elements that are made by fusing existing elements with fast-moving particles are called transuranium elements or synthetic elements. These elements are usually created in a laboratory setting through nuclear reactions and are typically unstable and radioactive.


Who is the scientist that grouped elements into sets of three?

Newland, Moseley, , Dobereiner, Mendeleeff...


When was phosphorus created?

Phosphorus was discovered in 1669 by a German scientist called Hennig Brand.


What is the section of elements that are placed outside of the periodic table called?

The elements that are placed outside of the periodic table are called transactinides. These elements are usually placed in a separate row below the main table and are synthetic elements that do not occur naturally on Earth.


Compare the role of nuclear fusion in the formation of the earth's naturally occurring elements and in the creation of synthetic elements in the laboratory?

The range of elements found on earth were formed by some supernova explosion in the distant past, and somehow the earth was formed from the debris and then captured by the sun. Fusion must have been involved though the exact course of these events can only be surmised. Nuclear fusion has not been used on earth to create synthetic elements, and in fact has only been produced in a few places for very short times, less than one second. You are probably thinking of nuclear fission, where operation of nuclear reactors does produce synthetic elements such as plutonium. These are called the transuranic elements.

What are elements that are made in lab called?

Elements that are made in a laboratory are typically referred to as synthetic elements. These elements are not found naturally on Earth and are produced by scientists through various experimental methods. Examples of synthetic elements include einsteinium and seaborgium.
