About this ebook

Peter Armbruster, Sigurd Hoffmann, Victor Ninov, and Gottfried Münzenberg worked in Darmstadt, a city in Hesse, Germany. In Darmstadt, the following elements were synthesized: Bohrium (107), Hassium (108), Meitnerium (109), Darmstadtium (110), Roentgenium (111), and Copernicium (112). Element 113 was synthesized by a Japanese team at Riken in Wakô, Japan. They called it Nihonium in honor of their country. The remaining elements were synthesized at Dubna, Russia, by Russian and American scientists. They are Flerovium (114), Muscovium (115), Livermorium (116), Tennessine (117), and Oganesson (118).

    The Synthesis of Elements 107-118 - Daniel Zimmermann

    The Synthesis of Elements 107-118

    The Synthesis of Elements 107-118

    By Daniel Zimmermann

    The Synthesis of Bohrium

    The atomic number of bohrium is 107. This means that there are 107 protons in its nucleus. Do not confuse bohrium with boron. While boron occurs naturally in the earth's crust, bohrium is a man-made element. It is very unstable. Not many atoms of bohrium have been synthesized.

    Two teams of scientists share in the honor of discovering the element bohrium: In 1976, Yuri Oganessian and his coworkers at Dubna in the former Soviet Union and Peter Armbruster and his coworkers at Darmstadt in Germany.
