Question

Which of the following matches between the atomic number and its official IUPAC 3-letter temporary symbol are CORRECT?

Answer: A,B,C,D

💡 Solution & Explanation

The IUPAC naming system derives 3-letter symbols directly from the numerical roots: 1=u, 0=n, 2=b, 4=q, 8=o. Thus, $101$ is Unnilunium ($Unu$), $104$ is Unnilquadium ($Unq$), $108$ is Unniloctium ($Uno$), and $112$ is Ununbium ($Uub$).
