what is valency of ununoctium
Answers
Answer:
Ununoctium has a name now, it is called Oganesson. It is in the noble gas column but it is predicted to be a solid. Only five or six atoms of Oganesson have ever been made and all of them are extremely radioactive. Unlike the other noble gases it is predicted that Oganesson should be relatively reactive. It is also predicted to have six possible valence states, −1, 0, +1, +2, +4, and +6. So, the question cannot be answered definitively, since Ununoctium (Oganesson) has several possible valence states.
Explanation:
Its name is Oganesson. It would be better to use oxidation state rather that valence. It has been predicted that its oxidation states are +6, +4, -1, +2, +1, and 0 since its chemical and physical properties have not been thoroughly studied as it is highly unstable and has a very short half - life
