What Seaborgium looks like is not known because not enough has been made to see it with human eyesight, but since it is in the same period as Tungsten in the periodic table, it's appearance and may be similar to such.
The element is named in honor of Glenn Seaborg.
Seaborgium is a transuranium element. This means that it is "beyond" (trans) the element Uranium in the sequence of elements.
Mendeleev predicted that Seaborgium would exist. He called the element eka-tungsten because of its location was near Tungsten in the Periodic Table. The chemistry of seaborgium is like the chemistry of tungsten.
Fireworks display
