Livermorium

Pronounced

LIV-ər-MOHR-ee-əm

Livermorium (Lv) is a radioactive element that has the atomic number 116 in the periodic table, its appearance is not fully known due to the minuscule amounts produced of it. It is in Group 16. It has the symbol Lv.

Livermorium was synthesised in Dubna, Russia in 2000. A collaboration of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory led by Yuri Oganessian and Ken Moody. After review by IUPAC in 2011 the predicted element ununhexium was renamed Livermorium. Due to its instability an atom of Livermorium decayed after 46.9 milliseconds. Livermorium was named after the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California.
