Unhexquadium
Unhexquadium is a radioactive element that has not been discovered. It will have 164 protons and 318 neutrons. Interest in the chemistry of unhexquadium is largely prompted by predictions that the isotope 482Uhq (with 164 protons and 318 neutrons), would be at the center of a possible second island of stability (the first being centered on 306Ubb or 298Fl ).[1][2][3]

Energy eigenvalues (in eV) for the outermost electrons of elements with Z = 100 through 172, predicted using Dirac–Fock calculations. The − and + signs refer to orbitals with decreased or increased azimuthal quantum number from spin–orbit splitting respectively: p− is p1/2, p+ is p3/2, d− is d3/2, d+ is d5/2, f− is f5/2, f+ is f7/2, g− is g7/2, and g+ is g9/2.
Energy eigenvalues for the 1s, 2s, 2p1/2 and 2p3/2 shells from solutions of the Dirac equation (taking into account the finite size of the nucleus) for Z = 135–175 (–·–), for the Thomas-Fermi potential (—) and for Z = 160–170 with the self-consistent potential (---).
