As much as I am a geek about many things, I have to say with much sorrow that I had difficulty with chemistry. I still love it, though, in a "No, Macgyver, it doesn't work like that, the Mythbusters are better at it" sort of way (haters and trolls: I'm just having fun there).
Still, a new periodic table!
"Following tradition, the new additions to the seventh row of the
periodic table received names that paid homage to either the region of
their discovery or a person, and their suffixes reflected chemical
consistency. Nihonium, Moscovium, and Tennessine are named after places
where they were discovered: Nihon (the Japanese word for Japan), Moscow
(Russia’s capital), and Tennessee (the U.S. state), respectively.
Oganesson was named after Yuri Oganessian, a Russian nuclear scientist."
