Moscovium - Mc

Chemical properties of moscovium

Moscovium (Mc) is a synthetic, radioactive element with atomic number 115. The representative mass number shown here identifies a radioactive isotope; it is not a standard atomic weight. Only a few atoms have been produced, so bulk properties such as density, melting point, and boiling point are unknown.

Research and occurrence

Moscovium is a synthetic, radioactive element known only from accelerator experiments that create a few atoms at a time. Its chemical and physical properties have not been measured in bulk, and much of its expected behavior is theoretical. It has no commercial or water-treatment application.

Health and environmental context

Moscovium is produced only in specialised nuclear research and is not encountered as an environmental contaminant in ordinary water or process-water treatment. This page is an element overview, not guidance for handling radioactive materials.
