- The prefix eka- comes from the Sanskrit word for “one.”Mendeleev used this prefix to indicate that the unknownelement was one place away from the known element thatfollowed the prefix. For example, eka-silicon, which we nowcall germanium, is one element below silicon. Mendeleevalso predicted the existence of eka-manganese, which was notexperimentally confirmed until 1937 because this element isradioactive and does not occur in nature.
