Which phrase best identifies the inspiration for the element niobium's name? Element 113
by Natoli Vier

Nihonium is one of the newest elements on the periodic table, added in 2016. The element was originally called ununtrium, Latin for "one one three." The element held this name until an official naming proposal was submitted to secure the name "nihonium." This element was created by scientists in a laboratory in 2012.
The word Nihon was proposed as part of the name for this element. The word Nihon is Japanese for "Japan," and means "the land of the rising Sun." The name is intended to connect the element with the country where the element was discovered—Japan. The element's name was also proposed in part to honor the work of another Japanese scientist, Masataka Ogawa, who discovered element 43, which he wanted to name after Japan.
Unlike many other elements on the periodic table, nihonium is a man-made element, is unstable, and quickly breaks down into other elements. This break down is a direct result of the element not being natural, but instead, being man-made. Nihonium has only been produced a limited amount of times for scientific study. This makes discussing the element challenging for scientists. Furthermore, it shows how much scientific research and study goes into a project like this.

Which phrase best identifies the inspiration for the element niobium's name?
A. the country it was created in

B. the scientist who created it

C. the continent it was created on
