What would happen if every element on the periodic table came into contact simultaneously?

The answer to that question is neither simple or unique. Fundamentally, because the statement says nothing about the conditions of the experiment does not say at what pressure, or at what temperature, and what medium (acid, basic, neutral, in a vacuum, etc.), or how much of each element you try to mix. So the simplest answer is: nothing, nothing will happens. As they not make me any other condition that join them, if I do that in conditions of absolute zero temperature (-273 ° C), atoms lose all ability to move and therefore combination among them. It would not be anything.

What would happen in "normal" conditions? If we establish these conditions, for example, at 25 ° C at 1 atmosphere pressure and in a neutral medium, we should say, necessarily, that the experiment is impossible. Because there are a number of elements of the periodic table (in nparticular, atomic number from 95 to 118 currently known) that do not exist in nature, only have been obtained in laboratories and in very specific conditions. So it would be impossible to have them available for the experiment in these "normal" conditions.

What could happen in ideal conditions in which to coexist all known elements so far? For there are theories for all tastes, because it is an experiment that, until now, has never done. Some believe that the outcome would depend mainly on the status of each element: ie what atom would find closer to another particular, that were combined with each other and not with another farther than therefore needs more energy for combination. There are also those who believe that there could be a catastrophe, having radioactive elements, elements that when combined together make a very violent manner, etc.

There are many other theories, all of them (even those that have exhibited) very difficult to understand in what seems almost everyone agree on is a super-element, a single comprehensive substance of all known elements are not formed.
