Dubnium

Dubnium, including Technical Data, Safety Data and its high purity propertiesresearch, applications and other useful facts are discussed below. Scientific facts such as the atomic structure,ionization energyabundance on Earthconductivity and thermal properties are included.

Dubnium’s appearance is unknown but it is thought to be silvery, white or metallic gray. Little is known about the element and it has no known uses. Dudnium is a synthetic element and therefore is not naturally found in the environment.


Dubnium is a D-Block, Group 5, Period 7 element. The number of electrons in each of Dubnium‘s shells is 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 11, 2 and its electronic configuration is [Rn] 5f14 6d3 7s2. In its elemental form Dubnium‘s CAS number 53850-35-4. 

The discovery of Dubnium was made independently by Russian researchers in 1967  and  then by American researchers in 1970.
