This is a list of prices of chemical elements. Listed here are mainly average market prices for bulk trade of commodities. Data on elements' abundance in Earth's crust is added for comparison. As of 2020, the most expensive non-synthetic element by both mass and volume is rhodium.
The scientists involved in the discovery of element 118, as well as those of 117 and 115, held a conference call on 23 March 2016 to decide their names. Element 118 was the last to be decided upon; after Oganessian was asked to leave the call, the remaining scientists unanimously decided to have the element "oganesson" after him.
A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z). [ 1 ] The definitive visualisation of all 118 elements is the periodic table of the elements , whose history along the principles of the periodic law was one of the founding ...

This was a break from the convention used for elements 95 to 97, which drew inspiration from how the elements directly above them in the periodic table were named. [ 33 ] [ e ] However, the element directly above element 98 in the periodic table, dysprosium , has a name that means "hard to get at", so the researchers decided to set aside the ...
Thus element 164 with 7d 10 9s 0 is noted by Fricke et al. to be analogous to palladium with 4d 10 5s 0, and they consider elements 157–172 to have chemical analogies to groups 3–18 (though they are ambivalent on whether elements 165 and 166 are more like group 1 and 2 elements or more like group 11 and 12 elements, respectively). Thus ...

The discovery of element 118 was announced in 2006. [ 2 ] Because of the very small fusion reaction probability (the fusion cross section is roughly 0.3–0.6 pb ), the experiment took four months and involved a beam dose of 2.5 × 10 19 calcium ions that had to be shot at the californium target to produce the first recorded event believed to ...
