Meitnerium (Mt)

Meitnerium (Mt) is element 109 of the periodic table, a transition metal in period 7 and group 9. It has no stable isotope and no standard atomic weight; 278 is the mass number of its longest-lived isotope. Its properties are predicted rather than measured: it is expected to be a solid at room temperature.
