Moscovium (115 Mc) is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no known stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 288 Mc in 2004. There are five known radioisotopes from 286 Mc to 290 Mc. The longest-lived isotope is 290 Mc with a half-life of 0.65 seconds.
It is expected that moscovium will have an inert-pair effect for both the 7s and the 7p 1/2 electrons, as the binding energy of the lone 7p 3/2 electron is noticeably lower than that of the 7p 1/2 electrons. This is predicted to cause +I to be a common oxidation state for moscovium, although it also occurs to a lesser extent for bismuth and ...

The produced isotopes of ununennium are expected to undergo two alpha decays to known isotopes of moscovium (288 Mc and 287 Mc respectively), [8] which would anchor them to a known sequence of five further alpha decays and corroborate their production.
Einsteinium and fermium were discovered by a team of scientists led by Albert Ghiorso in 1952 while studying the composition of radioactive debris from the detonation of the first hydrogen bomb. [19] The isotopes synthesized were einsteinium-253, with a half-life of 20.5 days, and fermium-255 , with a half-life of about 20 hours.
