Solution

The correct option is D 118
The elements which are available in nature freely are called naturally available elements.

- In the periodic table there are 118 elements, all the elements (118) do not occur naturally.

- The naturally occurring elements are 1- 92 except Technetium (43) and promethium (61).

- Means there are only 90 naturally occurring elements available in the periodic table.

- The elements technetium and promethium are synthesized from uranium and are called synthetic.
