To Choose: The correct option.
Answer to Problem 8STP
Option (A)
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Transuranium elements are prepared in laboratories these do not occur naturally with an atomic number greater than 92. These elements are unstable.
The elements after the uranium in the periodic table, all are synthetic or man-made or it can be said that the element with an atomic number greater than 92, is called a transuranium element. Neptunium and Plutonium are some transuranium elements.
Conclusion:
Hence, the transuranium elements are naturally occurring. The correct option is (A).
