Nomenclature of elements with Z > 100
Question

According to IUPAC nomenclature, the name of the element with Z=102 in the Modern periodic table is

Easy
Solution

According to IUPAC system :

the notations given to the digits for the elements with Z > 100 are….0 = nil ; 1 = un ; 2 = bi ; 3 = tri ; 4 = quad ; 5 = pent ; 6 = hex ; 7 = sept ; 8 = oct ; 9 = enn;

The suffix ‘ium’ is always used to write the IUPAC name ;

The first letter in the symbol (or) name of the element is indicated by ‘Capital letter’

101 = Un + nil + un…..Unnilunium ;102 = Un + nil + bi…..Unnilbium ;103 = Un + nil + tri…..Unniltrium ;

104 = Un + nil + quad…..Unnilquadium ;105 = Un + nil + pent…..Unnilpentium ;106 = Un + nil + hex…..Unnilhexium;

107 = Un + nil + sept…..Unnilseptium ; 108 = Un + nil + oct…..Unniloctium ; 109 = Un + nil + enn…..Unnilennium;

110 = Un + un + nil…..Ununnillium ; 111 = Un + un + un…..Unununnium ; 112 = Un + un + bi…..Ununbium ;

113 = Un + un + tri…..Ununtrium ; 114 = Un + un + quad…..Ununquadium ; 115 = Un + un + pent…..Ununpentium ;

116 = Un + un + hex…..Ununhexium ; 117 = Un + un + sept…..Ununseptium ; 118 = Un + un + oct…..Ununoctium ;

119 = Un + un + enn…..Ununennium ; 120 = Un + bi + nil…..Unbinilium ;
