DARMSTADTIUM

The chemical element darmstadtium is classed as a transition metal. Darmstadtium was first
synthesized by research scientists at the Heavy Ion Research Laboratory in Darmstadt, Germany
in 1994.The element was made by bombarding lead-208 atoms with nickel-62 atoms in a heavy
ion accelerator. It is was descovered Sigurd Hofmann, Peter Armbruster and Gottfried
Münzenberg.

Darmstadtium, It is formed by fusing nickel and lead atoms in a heavy ion


accelerator.Darmstadtium is a radioactive synthetic metal and has only been produced in tiny
amounts. Darmstadtium is a chemical element with symbol Ds and atomic number 110.
Classified as a transition metal, darmstadtium is a expected to be a solid at room
temperature.Darmstadtium is a super-heavy radioactive element that does not exist in nature and
breaks down in a matter of milliseconds following synthesis. Before it was synthesized, the
element held the temporary name ununnilium (Uun).

To sum up everything that has been stated so far, Darmstadtium it is only used in research.
Darmstadtium has no known biological role. A man-made element of which only a few atoms
have ever been created. It that is formed by fusing nickel and lead atoms in a heavy ion
accelerator.
