What family is Americium in?
Americium is in the Actinide family of elements. It is a synthetic element with the symbol Am and atomic number 95. Actinides are a series of elements in the periodic table that have properties similar to actinium.
All synthetic elements are?
man-made elements that do not occur naturally in the environment. They are typically created in laboratories through nuclear reactions or particle bombardment. Examples of synthetic elements include technetium (Tc) and americium (Am).
The lanthanides and actinides are known as the?
The lanthanides and actinides are known as the inner transition metals. They are located at the bottom of the periodic table and have electron configurations that include f-orbitals. They share similar chemical properties due to the filling of their f-orbitals.
What describes elements that are made in particle accelerators and are not found in nature?
The elements formed in particle accelerators are usually called Synthetic Elements or Artifically Produced Elements. They are all Transuranium Elements (higher on the periodic table than Uranium), and twenty have been produced so far. Most of them disintegrate within a fraction of a second, some of them in such a short time that it is difficult to verify whether an element has been created or not.
Element is synthetic?
There are a number of synthetic elements. And a few that are what is called quasi-synthetic. The synthetic ones aren't found in nature. And it could be said that the quasi-synthetic ones are found in nature in only the barest trace amounts. The nice folks at Wikipedia have posted a comprehensive list, and a link is provided. That way you can scan the list quickly, and you will have the added advantage of being able to link to any element that looks interesting. Yes, that's right. All the elements on the list are actually hyperlinks to the Wikipedia article on that element. How cool is that?!
What is the name of the series which contains most of the synthetic and radioactive elements?
All of the actinides are radioactive, and almost all are synthetic.
Are actinides and lanthanide elements transition metals?
no they are not. actinide is not part of the transition metals.
What family is Americium in?
Americium is in the Actinide family of elements. It is a synthetic element with the symbol Am and atomic number 95. Actinides are a series of elements in the periodic table that have properties similar to actinium.
Are most of the actinides occur naturally in earth's crust?
No, most of the actinides do not occur naturally in Earth's crust. Actinides are a group of elements that are mostly synthetic or man-made through nuclear reactions. Only a few actinides, like uranium and thorium, occur naturally in significant quantities in the Earth's crust.
Which elements have no useful purposes at all?
All elements have a useful purpose, including the synthetic actinides that have half-lives measured in milliseconds.
What are Lanthanides and Actinides?
Elements. The Lanthanides are: Atomic No.575859606162636465666768697071NameLaCePrNdPmSmEuGdTbDyHoErTmYbLu The Actinides are:Atomic No.8990919293949596979899100101102103NameAcThPaUNpPuAmCmBkCfEsFmMdNoLr
What the characteristics of actinides?
actinides are the group of elements in the periodic table,see..........
Is actinide considered a synthetic element?
Actinide is not an element, but is a series of elements. Of the actinide series of elements, all except actinium, thorium, protactinium, and uranium are considered to be synthetic elements because they are not found in nature in appreciable amounts.
A property of all actinides is that they are all what?
Actinoids are: Th, Pa, U, Np, Am, Cm, Bk, Cf, Es, Fm, Md, No, Lr.
Synthetic elements comprise a majority of which of the following groups?
Synthetic elements comprise a majority of the transactinide elements (elements beyond atomic number 103) in the periodic table. These elements are created artificially in laboratories through nuclear reactions and have very short half-lives due to their instability.
Is a characteristic of the actinides?
All actinides are radioactive elements and some are man made.
Is a characteristic of Actinides?
All actinides are radioactive elements and some are man made.
