A mononuclidic element is an element that has only one stable isotope. Some synonyms for this term include monoisotopic element, single isotope element, and uniform isotope element. Mononuclidic elements are quite rare in nature, and only a few are known to exist. Examples of mononuclidic elements include beryllium-9, fluorine-19, aluminum-27, and phosphorus-31. These elements are used in a variety of applications in industry and research, and their unique properties make them valuable in specialized fields such as nuclear medicine and nuclear power. Although mononuclidic elements are relatively uncommon, their importance in scientific and technological fields cannot be overstated.
