Place des éléments transuraniens et des éventuels éléments superlourds. Un problème de classement se pose pour les éléments lourds à partir de l'actinium (numéro atomique 89). Si on compare avec la période précédente, on devrait trouver une série d'«actinides», métaux à valence 3 dominante, semblables aux lanthanides, et correspondant au remplissage progressif de la sous-couche 5f. 1, record 1, French, - s%C3%A9rie%20des%20actinides
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
actinide : ce nom a été introduit par Seaborg par analogies chimique et électronique avec les lanthanides. L'ensemble est aussi appelé «famille des éléments 5f». 4, record 1, French, - s%C3%A9rie%20des%20actinides
