    For example, germanium was called eka-silicon until its discovery in 1886, and rhenium was called dvi-manganese before its discovery in 1926. The eka-prefix was used by other theorists, and not only in Mendeleev's own predictions. Before the discovery, francium was referred to as eka-caesium, and astatine as eka-iodine.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbihexium

    Unbihexium, also known as element 126 or eka-plutonium, is a hypothetical chemical element; it has atomic number 126 and placeholder symbol Ubh. Unbihexium and Ubh are the temporary IUPAC name and symbol , respectively, until the element is discovered, confirmed, and a permanent name is decided upon.

    41 of the 118 known elements have names associated with, or specifically named for, places around the world or among astronomical objects. 32 of these have names tied to the places on Earth, and the other nine are named after to Solar System objects: helium for the Sun; tellurium for the Earth; selenium for the Moon; mercury (indirectly), uranium, neptunium and plutonium after their respective ...

    At least rhenium was called dvi-manganese (because eka-manganese, i.e. technetium, wasn't known either). Icek~enwiki ( talk ) 00:22, 15 January 2016 (UTC) [ reply ] There is and was no reason to use the higher numbers when the lower number could be used; hence you might see element 115 called eka-bismuth today, but certainly not dvi-antimony.

    Four allotropes (structural forms) of solid manganese are known, labeled α, β, γ and δ, and occurring at successively higher temperatures. All are metallic, stable at standard pressure, and have a cubic crystal lattice, but they vary widely in their atomic structures. [18] [19] [20] Alpha manganese (α-Mn) is the equilibrium phase at room ...

    In 1908 he claimed to have isolated element 43, calling it Nipponium. Using an original plate (not a simulation), Kenji Yoshihara determined Ogawa had not found the Period 5 Group 7 element 43 (eka-manganese), but had successfully separated Period 6 Group 7 element 75 (dvi-manganese) , preceding the Noddacks by 17 years.

    Manganese poisoning has been linked to impaired motor skills and cognitive disorders. [127] Technetium has low chemical toxicity. For example, no significant change in blood formula, body and organ weights, and food consumption could be detected for rats which ingested up to 15 μg of technetium-99 per gram of food for several weeks.
