Rutherfordium (Rf): Atomic number: 104, Atomic mass: 260.9 g.mol -1, Electronegativity: unknown, Density: unknown, Melting point: unknown, Boiling point: unknown, Vanderwaals radius: unknown, Ionic radius: unknown, Isotopes: 9, Electronic shell: [ Rn] 5f14 6d2 7s2, Discovered by: Lord Rutherford of Nelson. Rutherfordium is a highly radioactive chemical element. His most stable isotope Rf 265 has an half like of approximately 13 hours. Nine of its isotopes are known. Its predominant oxidation in +4 and complexes such as RfCl62- have been confirmed. Applications: Rutherfordium does not have any application and little is known about it. Rutherfordium in the environment: Rutherforium is not found free in the environment, since it is a synthetic element.
