In concordance with and following the earlier reports that the claims for discovery of these elements have been fulfilled, the discoverers have been invited to propose names. Keeping with tradition, the newly discovered elements have been named after a place or geographical region, or a scientist. The ending of the names also reflects and maintains historical and chemical consistency: \u201c-ium\u201d for elements 113 and 115 and as for all new elements of groups 1 to 16, \u201c-ine\u201d for element 117 and belonging to group 17 and \u201c-on\u201d for element 118, belonging to group 18.<br \/>\n<strong>Source<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/iupac.org\/iupac-announces-the-names-of-the-elements-113-115-117-and-118\/\">https:\/\/iupac.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the 28 November, after a five-month period of public review, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[9,33],"tags":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.6 -
