Actinium

Japanese: アクチニウム
Actinium

Ac. Atomic number 89. Electron configuration [Rn]6d 1 7s 2. It is an actinide element in group 3 of the periodic table. Its name comes from the Greek ακτινοσ, meaning "ray of light". It was discovered in uranium ore by A. Debierne in 1899 and F. Giesel in 1902. There are currently 35 known isotope species, including isomers, in the range of 206 to 236. The nuclide with mass number 227 is the longest-lived, with a half-life of 21.77 y. It mainly undergoes β decay to 227 Th. In nature, this nuclide is found in the middle of the actinium series starting with 235 U. In the thorium series, there is also a β-decay nuclide 228 Ac with a half-life of 6.15 h. The elemental form can be obtained by reducing the fluoride AcF 3 with Li vapor at a high temperature of over 1100 °C. It is a silvery-white metal. Density 10.07 g mL -1 . Melting point 1050 °C, boiling point 3200 °C. First ionization energy 498.7 kJ mol -1 (5.17 eV). Chemical properties are similar to those of the rare earth elements, especially lanthanum, but more basic. Oxidation state 3. [CAS 7440-34-8]
