  2. Rhenium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhenium

    Rhenium was originally discovered in 1908 by Masataka Ogawa, but he mistakenly assigned it as element 43 rather than element 75 and named it nipponium. It was rediscovered in 1925 by Walter Noddack, Ida Tacke and Otto Berg, [10] who gave it its present name.

  3. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    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 ...

  4. List of refrigerants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_refrigerants

    According to ASHRAE standard 34, the R-number of a chemical refrigerant is assigned systematically according to its molecular structure and has between two and four digits. If there are carbon -carbon multiple bonds , there are four digits in all: the number of these bonds is the first digit and the number of carbon atoms minus one (C-1) is next.

  5. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    The chemical elements are what the periodic table classifies and organizes. Hydrogen is the element with atomic number 1; helium, atomic number 2; lithium, atomic number 3; and so on. Each of these names can be further abbreviated by a one- or two-letter chemical symbol; those for hydrogen, helium, and lithium are respectively H, He, and Li. [6]

    The symbol and name were instead used for element 105. [nb 1] [nb 3] [5] Dc: Decipium: 62: Delafontaine wrongly believed decipium to be a new element. Was actually samarium. Dc: Dvicaesium: 87: Name given by Mendeleev to an as of then undiscovered element. When discovered, francium closely matched the prediction. [nb 3] [nb 4] De: Denebium: 69

  7. List of elements by atomic properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_atomic...

    This is a list of chemical elements and their atomic properties, ordered by atomic number (Z).. Since valence electrons are not clearly defined for the d-block and f-block elements, there not being a clear point at which further ionisation becomes unprofitable, a purely formal definition as number of electrons in the outermost shell has been used.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodium

    Rhodium is a chemical element; it has symbol Rh and atomic number 45. It is a very rare, silvery-white, hard, corrosion-resistant transition metal. It is a noble metal and a member of the platinum group. It has only one naturally occurring isotope, which is 103 Rh.
