D., Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies and Dean of the Graduate College May 2011 ii ABSTRACT Extraction Chromatographic Studies of Rutherfordium and Dubnium Homologs by Megan E. Bennett Dr. Ralf Sudowe, Examination Committee Chair Assistant Professor of Radiochemistry University of Nevada, Las Vegas Studying the chemistry of transactinide elements does not only allow for these elements to be properly placed in the Periodic Table, but it also permits for the extrapolation of the electronic structure based upon the position of the element in the Periodic Table. In addition it enable for the assessment of the role that relativistic effects play in the chemical behavior of the heaviest elements. An improved understanding of the role of relativistic effects in chemistry of the heaviest elements allows for a better understanding of the fundamentals principles that govern the Periodic Table. In order to investigate the chemistry of the transactinides, chemical studies on the homologs and pseudo-homologs of the element must first be performed. Chemical studies of the homologs and pseudo-homologs can be completed in a number of ways. Gas-phase chemistry, solvent extraction and ion-exchange chromatography have all been used to study a number of transactinide elements as well as their respective homologs and pseudo-homologs. No matter the method of study, a given system must fulfill the following requirements to be considered suitable; fast kinetics, high separation factors, large number of exchange steps, highly selective and samples easily prepared for alpha spectroscopy. The system must allow for rapid separation due to the short half- iii lives of transactinide elements (on the order of a few seconds up to a minute). A large number of exchange steps are necessary due to the fact there is only one atom present at a given time. In order for one atom to be statistically representative of a macroscopic amount the atom must undergo many interactions with the two phases of the separation system. The system should also be highly selective to ensure that background contamination is removed and separation of the transactinide from its homologs and pseudo-homologs is achieved. Finally, the samples generated from the separation must be easily and rapidly prepared for alpha spectroscopy so that the decay of the short lived transactinide element can be directly detected. The aim of this research is to develop two separation schemes for elements 104 and 105 that fulfill all of these requirements. For element 105 the proposed extractant molecule is a tetra diglycoloamide in a mixed acid matrix. In the case of element 104 crown ether based ligands of interest. The proposed separation schemes for element 104 and 105 are based on both commercially available and in-house synthesized resins. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Dr. Ralf Sudowe, Dr. Dawn Shaughnessy and Dr. Roger Henderson for their guidance, support, and encouragement during my graduate career.

  • NOBELIUM Element Symbol: No Atomic Number: 102
    NOBELIUM Element Symbol: No Atomic Number: 102 An initiative of IYC 2011 brought to you by the RACI KERRY LAMB www.raci.org.au NOBELIUM Element symbol: No Atomic number: 102 The credit for discovering Nobelium was disputed with 3 different research teams claiming the discovery. While the first claim dates back to 1957, it was not until 1992 that the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry credited the discovery to a research team from Dubna in Russia for work they did in 1966. The element was named Nobelium in 1957 by the first of its claimed discoverers (the Nobel Institute in Sweden). It was named after Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist who invented dynamite, held more than 350 patents and bequeathed his fortune to the establishment of the Nobel Prizes. Nobelium is a synthetic element and does not occur in nature and has no known uses other than in scientific research as only tiny amounts of the element have ever been produced. Nobelium is radioactive and most likely metallic. The appearance and properties of Nobelium are unknown as insufficient amounts of the element have been produced. Nobelium is made by the bombardment of curium (Cm) with carbon nuclei. Its most stable isotope, 259No, has a half-life of 58 minutes and decays to Fermium (255Fm) through alpha decay or to Mendelevium (259Md) through electron capture. Provided by the element sponsor Freehills Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys ARTISTS DESCRIPTION I wanted to depict Alfred Nobel, the namesake of Nobelium, as a resolute young man, wearing the Laurel wreath which is the symbol of victory.

  • Periodic Table 1 Periodic Table
    Periodic table 1 Periodic table This article is about the table used in chemistry. For other uses, see Periodic table (disambiguation). The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, organized on the basis of their atomic numbers (numbers of protons in the nucleus), electron configurations , and recurring chemical properties. Elements are presented in order of increasing atomic number, which is typically listed with the chemical symbol in each box. The standard form of the table consists of a grid of elements laid out in 18 columns and 7 Standard 18-column form of the periodic table. For the color legend, see section Layout, rows, with a double row of elements under the larger table. below that. The table can also be deconstructed into four rectangular blocks: the s-block to the left, the p-block to the right, the d-block in the middle, and the f-block below that. The rows of the table are called periods; the columns are called groups, with some of these having names such as halogens or noble gases. Since, by definition, a periodic table incorporates recurring trends, any such table can be used to derive relationships between the properties of the elements and predict the properties of new, yet to be discovered or synthesized, elements. As a result, a periodic table—whether in the standard form or some other variant—provides a useful framework for analyzing chemical behavior, and such tables are widely used in chemistry and other sciences. Although precursors exist, Dmitri Mendeleev is generally credited with the publication, in 1869, of the first widely recognized periodic table.

  • Upper Limit of the Periodic Table and the Future Superheavy Elements
    CLASSROOM Rajarshi Ghosh Upper Limit of the Periodic Table and the Future Department of Chemistry The University of Burdwan ∗ Superheavy Elements Burdwan 713 104, India. Email: [email protected] Controversy surrounds the isolation and stability of the fu- ture transactinoid elements (after oganesson) in the periodic table. A single conclusion has not yet been drawn for the highest possible atomic number, though there are several the- oretical as well as experimental results regarding this. In this article, the scientific backgrounds of those upcoming super- heavy elements (SHE) and their proposed electronic charac- ters are briefly described. Introduction Totally 118 elements, starting from hydrogen (atomic number 1) to oganesson (atomic number 118) are accommodated in the mod- ern form of the periodic table comprising seven periods and eigh- teen groups. Total 92 natural elements (if technetium is consid- ered as natural) are there in the periodic table (up to uranium hav- ing atomic number 92). In the actinoid series, only four elements— Keywords actinium, thorium, protactinium and uranium—are natural. The Superheavy elements, actinoid rest of the eleven elements—from neptunium (atomic number 93) series, transactinoid elements, periodic table. to lawrencium (atomic number 103)—are synthetic. Elements after actinoids (i.e., from rutherfordium) are called transactinoid elements. These are also called superheavy elements (SHE) as they have very high atomic numbers. Prof. G T Seaborg had Elements after actinoids a very distinct contribution in the field of transuranium element (i.e., from synthesis. For this, Prof. Seaborg was awarded the Nobel Prize in rutherfordium) are called transactinoid elements. 1951.
