Tennessine is the second-heaviest known element and as of 2015, 15 Tennessine atoms have been observed: six when it was first synthesized in 2010, seven in 2012, and two in 2014. The synthesized atoms have lasted some tens and hundreds of microseconds and is likely to neither commonly form anions nor achieve high oxidation states. However, a few key properties, such as its melting and boiling points and its first ionisation energy, are expected to follow the periodic trends from the halogens.
