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.
moscovium, Mc, named after Moscow Oblast, where the element was discovered (2004). 116. livermorium, Lv, named after Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a collaborator with JINR in the discovery (2000). 117. tennessine, Ts, after Tennessee, where the berkelium target needed for the synthesis of the element was manufactured (2010). 118.
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.
ORNL actinides from HFIR (in parentheses) were involved in these superheavy element discoveries: flerovium-114 in 2000 (americium-243); moscovium-115 (americium-243), which was observed in 2004 ...
Elemental arsenic was discovered in the 13th century by Albertus Magnus. [14] Antimony was well known to the ancients. A 5000-year-old vase made of nearly pure antimony exists in the Louvre. Antimony compounds were used in dyes in the Babylonian times. The antimony mineral stibnite may have been a component of Greek fire. [14]

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.
