In 1930 the american physicist ernest lawrence designed the first cyclotron in berkeley, california. in 1937 lawrence bombarded a molybdenum-96 target with deuterium ions (2h), producing for the first time an element not found in nature. part a what was this element? express your answer as a chemical symbol without mass or atomic numbers.

In, 1937 Lawrence, in operating his cyclotron, bombarded a molybdenum-96 foil with deuterium ions (2h), producing for the first time an element not found in nature. He was initially unaware that the radioactivity produced by the "bombarded foil" was not from molybdenum but from a new, artificial element. It was his cooperation with Italian-American physicist Emilio Segrè that allowed the new element to be discovered. The answer is Technetium: Tc
