Takeaway
  • Recommended or revised 7 times between 1902 and 2024 (first record 1902, latest revision 1995).
  • Both revisions whose previous recommendation had an uncertainty kept the new value inside the previous (expanded) range.
  • The current standard atomic weight is 140.116(1) (recommended in 1995).
