Question

What element has the symbol of $Am$ ?

Answer 1

The chemical elements in periodic table arrangement is done in four blocks namely s, p, d, and f blocks. f-block has two series namely lanthanide and actinide series. The element americium belongs to the actinide series with the chemical symbol of $Am$ with atomic number $95$.

Complete answer:
Chemical elements are arranged in the periodic table according to some periodic properties. Out of the periodic properties, the modern periodic table was successful in arranging the elements according to atomic numbers.
Thus, in the modern periodic table the chemical elements are arranged in the increasing order of atomic numbers in vertical columns and horizontal rows. The vertical columns were known as groups and the horizontal columns were known as periods. There are $7$ periods and $18$ groups in the periodic table. f-block in the periodic table consists of two series namely lanthanide and actinide series. Each series consists of $14$ elements. Actinides are the elements from atomic numbers $90$ to $103$ starting with thorium and ending with lawrencium. The chemical element americium has atomic number $95$ with molar mass $243amu$ was belongs to actinides. It has chemical symbol of $Am$
Thus, the element with the symbol $Am$ is Americium.

Note:
The periodic table is divided into four blocks namely s, p, d, and f blocks. s-block is placed at the extreme left side of the periodic table. p- block is placed at the extreme right side of the periodic table. d- block is placed at the middle of the periodic table. f- block is placed at the bottom of the periodic table.
