The figure of 268 is a mass number rather than a measured atomic weight, because this element has no stable isotope.
Calculate with dubnium
- Molar mass of any formula containing it
- Electron configuration, including ions
- Effective nuclear charge by Slater's rules
- Average atomic mass from isotope abundances
Group 5
Atomic weights are the IUPAC 2021 standard values, abridged to the conventional five significant figures. Group, period, category and electron configuration are derived from the atomic number rather than stored, so they cannot drift out of step with it.
