Question:

A reported synthesis of the transuranium element bohrium (Bh) involved the bombardment of berkelium-249 with neon22 to produce bohrium-267. Write a nuclear reaction for this synthesis. The half-life of bohrium-267 is 15.0 seconds. If 199 atoms of bohrium-267 could be synthesized, how much time would elapse before only 11 atoms of bohrium-267 remain? What is the expected electron configuration of elemental bohrium?
