The periodic table of chemical elements, often called the periodic table, organizes all discovered chemical elements in rows (called periods) and columns (called groups) according to increasing atomic ...

The following year, Stanislao Cannizzaro used a hypothesis from Amedeo Avogadro to create a standard set of atomic weights ... Julius Lothar Meyer and William Odling independently published their own ...

However, he is remembered for his search for a pattern in inorganic chemistry. Just four years before Mendeleev announced his periodic table, Newlands noticed that there were similarities between ...

But how many of these elements do you know? Test your knowledge and compete with other Live Science readers to see who can ...

The Standard Model is a kind of periodic table of the elements for particle physics. But instead of listing the chemical elements, it lists the fundamental particles that make up the atoms that make ...

Developing the periodic table The periodic table was developed by grouping elements with similar properties. This, together with a later arrangement by atomic weight, led to a repeating pattern of ...

Scientists have found that our bodies need 28 different elements to function properly. These are almost one-quarter of the periodic table and are mainly found in the first four periods.

in an attempt to memorise some of the 118 elements. This year, the periodic table of chemical elements celebrates its 150th birthday. As the candles on the cake are lit, it's time to test your ...

The periodic table arranges all the chemical elements in a specific way. Patterns are visible in the way that elements behave, and this allows us to make predictions about other elements.

As part of the ChemClub's 10 th Anniversary (2015-2016), we asked clubs to create elements of the periodic table featuring a mole. To celebrate the International Year of the Periodic Table (IYPT) in ...
