For example, the nuclear fusion of californium -249 and carbon -12 creates rutherfordium -261.
Extraction experiments from hydrochloric acid solutions using isotopes of rutherfordium, hafnium, zirconium, as well as the pseudo-group 4 element thorium have proved a non-actinide behavior for rutherfordium.
Experimental chemistry Gas phase The tetrahedral structure of the RfCl 4 molecule Early work on the study of the chemistry of rutherfordium focused on gas thermochromatography and measurement of relative deposition temperature adsorption curves.
In addition, rutherfordium is also expected to be able to form a less stable +3 state.
Super-heavy elements, (also known as super heavy atoms, commonly abbreviated SHE) usually refer to the transactinide elements beginning with rutherfordium (atomic number 104).
The chemical element rutherfordium (element 104) was named after him in 1997.
