Since 1998, elements 112, 114, and 116 have been synthesized. Element 112 was created by bombarding 208Pb

Question:

Since 1998, elements 112, 114, and 116 have been synthesized. Element 112 was created by bombarding 208Pb with 66Zn; element 114 was created by bombarding 244Pu with 48Ca; element 116 was created by bombarding 248Cm with 48Ca. Write an equation for each synthesis. Predict the chemical properties of these elements. Use X for element 112, Y for element 114, and Z for element 116.
