The Chemistry of Superheavy Elements

The chemistry of superheavy elements has made some considerable progress in the last decade [457]. As the recently synthesized elements with nuclear charge 112 (eka-Hg), 114 (eka-Pb) and 118 (eka-Rn) are predicted to be chemically quite inert [458], experiments on these elements focus on adsorption studies on metal surfaces like gold [459]. DFT calculations predict that the equilibrium adsorption temperature for element 112 is predicted 100 °C below that of Hg, and the reactivity of element 112 is expected to be somewhere between those of Hg and Rn [460, 461]. This is somewhat in contradiction to recent experiments [459], and DFT may not be able to simulate accurately the physisorption of element 112 on gold. More accurate wavefunction based methods are needed to clarify this situation. Similar experiments are planned for element 114. [Pg.220]
