For element 104 the names Kurchatovium (Ku) and Rutherfordium (Rf) were proposed by the groups at Dubna and Berkeley, respectively, thereby emphasizing their claim to the discoveries. The International Union on Pure and Applied Chemistry (lUPAC) has now decided on the following names element 104 Rutherfordium (Rf), element 105 Dubnium (Db), element 106 Seaborgium (Sg), element 107 Bohrium (Bh), element 108 Hassium (Hs), and element 109 Meitnerium (Mt). In the Periodic Table and nuclide charts we have thus used io4Rf. 106 8 107 > 108 So far no names have been... 

Abstract In this chapter, the chemical properties of the man-made transactinide elements rutherfordium, Rf (element 104), dubnium, Db (element 105), seaborgium, Sg (element 106), bohrium, Bh (element 107), hassium, Hs (element 108), and copernicium, Cn (element 112) are reviewed, and prospects for chemical characterizations of even heavier elements are discussed. The experimental methods to perform rapid chemical separations on the time scale of seconds are presented and comments are given on the special situation with the transactmides where chemistry has to be studied with single atoms. It follows a description of theoretical predictions and selected experimental results on the chemistry of elements 104 through 108, and element 112. 

Transactinide elements Artificial elements beyond the actinide elements, beginning with ratherfordium (Rf), element 104. The heaviest elements, synthesized until now, are the elements 114, 116, and 118. At present, bohrium (Bh), element 107, is the heaviest element which has been characterized chemically chemical studies of element 108, hassium (Hs), and element 112 are in preparation.

Probably, a combination of both i) digitally recording of LSC pulses plus their analysis by a neural network and ii) reducing the amount of reaction products entering the SISAK system with a pre-separator gives the most promising perspective. Various liquid-liquid extraction schemes for the transactinides have already been elaborated. An example is the separation procedure proposed for liquid-phase studies of element 107, bohrium (Bh) [62],... 

At this time, to name an element a researcher or team of researchers must be certified by lUPAC as the discoverers of that element, at which time they are free to name the compound. The elements 104-109 were subject to a naming controversy. The originally proposed names of these elements by lUPAC were, in order, dub-nium, joliotium, rutherfordium, bohrium, hahnium, and meiterium. The names which appear on the current periodic table are, in order, rutherfordium (Rf), dubnium (Db), seaborgium, bohrium (Bh), hassium (Hs), and meitnerium (Mt). 

Results of these experiments provided strong evidence that elements 104, ruther-fordium (Rf), 105, dubnium (Db), 106, seaborgium (Sg) and, very recently, element 107, bohrium (Bh) (Eichler et al 2000) behave similarly to their lighter homologues... 

A recently reported synthesis of the transuranium element bohrium (Bh) involved the bombardment of berkelium-249 with neon-22 to produce bohrium-267. Write a nuclear reaction for this synthesis. The half-life of bohrium-267 is 15.0 seconds. If...

When a scientist discovered a new element in the early days of chemistiy, he or she had the honor of naming it. Now researchers must submit their choices for a name to an international committee called the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry before they can be placed on the periodic table. In 1997, the lUPAC decided on names for the elements from 104 through 111. These eight elements are now called rutherfordium (Rf), dubnium (Db), sea-borgium (Sg), bohrium (Bh), hassium... 

One of the best uses of the periodic table is to predict the properties of newly discovered elements. For example, the artificially synthesized element bohrium (Z = 107) is found in the same family as manganese, technetium, and rhenium and is expected to show chemistry similar to these elements. The problem, of course, is that only a few atoms of bohrium (Bh) can be made at a time and the atoms exist for only a very short...

Bohrium - the atomic number is 107 and the chemical symbol is Bh. The name derives from the Danish physicist Niels Bohr, who developed the theory of the electronic structure of the atom. The first synthesis of this element is eredited to the laboratory of the GSI (Center for Heavy-Ion Research) under the leadership of the German scientists Peter Armbruster and Gunther Mhnzenberg at Darmstadt, Germany in 1981, using the reaction ° Bi ( Cr, n) Bh. The longest half-life associated with this unstable element is 17 second Bh. 

This nuclide was identified by genetic links to its daughters 258Db, 254Lr, 250Md, 250Fm, and 246Cf. The cross section reported for this reaction was 200 pb (approximately 1/5,000,000 of the production cross section assumed in the discovery of Md). This element was named bohrium (chemical symbol Bh) in honor of Niels Bohr. 

In February 1981, the first atoms of the element Bohrium-262, lo/Bh, were made from the bombardment of bismuth-209 atoms by chromium-54 atoms. Write a nuclear equation for this reaction. (One or more neutrons may be released in this type of nuclear reaction.)...
