Roentgenium

Roentgenium , including Technical Data, Safety Data and its high purity propertiesresearch, applications and other useful facts are discussed below. Scientific facts such as the atomic structureionization energyabundance on Earth,conductivity and thermal properties are included.

Roentgenium‘s appearance is unknown. Little is known about the element and it has no known uses. Roentgenium is a synthetic element that is not present in the environment.


Roentgenium is a is a D-Block, Group 11, Period 7 element. The number of electrons in each of Roentgenium‘s shells is 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 18, 1 and its electronic configuration is [Rn] 5f14 6d10 7s1. In its elemental form Roentgenium‘s CAS number is 54386-24-2.

Roentgenium was discovered on December 8, 1994 at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany by Sigurd Hofmann, Peter Armbruster and Gottfried Münzenberg along with a team of scientists.
