 Transactinides
  • Transactinides
  • all elements that follow the Actinides. As with all elements larger than uranium (U), these elements can only be produced in nuclear reactors or particle accelerators. While some of these elements of the transactinides are commonly lumped with metals, not enough information is available for this site to positively conclude whether elements 116 and 118 should be included with the metals or nonmetals. Indeed it may be completely in appropriate to lump these elements with either the metals or nonmetals. Only time will tell what the scientific community will ultimately decide.
