Oganesson vs Ununennium

Side-by-side comparison of Oganesson (Og, element 118) and Ununennium (Uue, element 119) by atomic structure and physical properties.

Predicted

  • Ununennium (Uue) Near-real

    This element is actively being synthesized in laboratories (Russia, Japan, USA). Its existence is theoretically confirmed, and discovery is expected in the coming years.

This element has not been synthesized or experimentally confirmed. All listed physicochemical properties are calculated, extrapolated, or model-dependent.

What Can Be Compared?

Elements beyond oganesson (118) have not been synthesized, so most physicochemical properties cannot be compared experimentally. For them, only identity data is available: systematic IUPAC name, symbol, atomic number, and predicted periodic-table placement (period, group, block, electron configuration).
