    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_of_chemical_elements

    Suffixes were used more inconsistently before 1784, with tungsten (discovered 1783) the last element discovered whose English name lacks a standard suffix. [41] The naming rules promulgated by IUPAC in 2002 declared that all newly discovered elements should have names ending in -ium, for linguistic consistency. [40]

    [169] [170] Hafnium was the last stable element to be discovered (noting however the difficulties regarding the discovery of rhenium). 43 Technetium: 1937 C. Perrier and E. Segrè: 1937: C. Perrier & E. Segrè: The two discovered a new element in a molybdenum sample that was used in a cyclotron, the first element to be discovered by synthesis ...

    This name was extremely controversial because Seaborg was still alive. An international committee decided in 1992 that the Berkeley and Dubna laboratories should share credit for the discovery. An element naming controversy erupted and as a result IUPAC adopted unnilhexium (Unh) as a temporary systematic element name.

    This list of chemical elements named after places includes elements named both directly and indirectly for places. 41 of the 118 chemical elements have names associated with, or specifically named for, places around the world or among astronomical objects.

    So, element 105 was named dubnium, and element 106 was named seaborgium. The elements were placed in the periodic table’s seventh row, which is above the row of lanthanides and the row of actinides.

  7. Francium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francium

    Francium was discovered by Marguerite Perey [4] in France (from which the element takes its name) on January 7, 1939. [5] Before its discovery, francium was referred to as eka-caesium or ekacaesium because of its conjectured existence below caesium in the periodic table. It was the last element first discovered in nature, rather than by synthesis.

    However, the first element to be discovered by synthesis rather than in nature was technetium in 1937.) The row was completed with the synthesis of tennessine in 2010 [76] (the last element oganesson had already been made in 2002), [77] and the last elements in this seventh row were given names in 2016. [78]
