Periodic table is arranged by atomic number, number of protons in the nucleus which is same as number of electrons. The atomic number increases from left to right. Periodic table starts at top left ( Atomic number 1) and ends at bottom right (atomic number 118). Therefore you can directly look for atomic number 116 to find Livermorium on periodic table.
Another way to read periodic table and locate an element is by using group number (column) and period number (row). To locate Livermorium on periodic table look for cross section of group 16 and period 7 in the modern periodic table.
The element Livermorium was discovered by Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in year 2000 in Russia . Livermorium derived its name from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (in Livermore, California) which collaborated with JINR on its synthesis
