Yair Terry · Answer 1

The electronic configuration of this chemical element is 5f14 6d10 7s2 7p4.

And also the possible union with hydrogen can give two possible compounds:

LvH2 or LvH4

This is because the Livermorio compound can have two different oxidation states with the value 2 and 4. When reacting with the hydrogen that its charge is + 1, these would be the two possible equations of a client to the different oxidation states with the ones that might react Lv.

Explanation:

It is a synthetic chemical compound and its number in the periodic table is 116
