Element	Number	Valence Electrons/shell	Melting Point (°C)	Boling Point (°C)	Density at STP (g/cm³)
Oxygen	8	2, 6	-219	-183	0.00143
Sulfur	16	2, 8, 6	120	445	2.07
Selenium	34	2, 8, 18, 6	221	685	4.3
Tellurium	52	2, 8, 18, 18, 6	450	988	6.24
Polonium	84	2, 8, 18, 32, 18, 6	254	962	9.2
Livermorium	116	2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 18, 6 (predicted)	220 (predicted)	800 (predicted)	14 (predicted)
