Atomic Number: 116  Atomic Symbol: LV


Atomic Weight: [293]  Melting Point: Unknown

Livermorium is named for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in


Livemore, California,USA . The name was officially given by the
International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry on May 31, 2012; prior
to that, it was known as ununhexium — one-one-six in Latin.
Livermorium is a P-Block, Group 16, Period 7 element. The number of
electrons in each of Livermorium's shells is 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 18, 6 and its
electron configuration is [Rn] 5f14 6d10 7s27p4. In its elemental form
Livermorium's CAS number is 54100-71-9.
 Livermorium was discovered in 2000 by scientists at the Joint Institute for
Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia and the Lawrence Livemore National
Laboratory in California. On December 6 of that year, it was jointly
announced by the Russian scientists and scientists at the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory.
Livermorium (formerly known as Ununhexium, symbol: Uuh) is a
synthetic superheavy element first produced in 2000 by the Joint Institute
for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, Russia. A team from Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory also worked on the element, and though
they gave credit to the JINR group for the discovery, the IUPAC rejected
the name moscovium for the element in favor of recognizing the Lawrence
Livermore laboratory with the element's name. To date, very few atoms of
livermorium have been produced, precluding both in-depth study of the
element's properties and well as the development of practical applications
for it. As the heaviest member of group 16 in the periodic table,
livermorium would likely exhibit similar chemical properties to other
members of this group, showing the most similarity to its nearest
neighbor, polonium. Livermorium information, including properties,
research, applications and other useful facts are discussed below. Scientific
facts such as the atomic structure, ionization energy, abundance on Earth,
conductivity and thermal properties are included.

Properties of livermorium

Livermorium is a radioactive, artificially produced element about which little


is known. It is expected to be a solid and classified as a metal. It is a
member of the chalcogen group.

Livermorium has four isotopes with known half-lives, all of which decay
through alpha decay. The most stable is 293Lv with a half-life of about 53
milliseconds. The atomic weight for manmade transuranium elements is
based on the longest-lived isotope. These atomic weights should be
considered provisional since a new isotope with a longer half-life could be
produced in the future.

practical uses outside of scientific study.
