      The Arrangement of the Periodic Table - Chemistry Revision
      • All the elements of the periodic table are arranged in order of increasing atomic (proton) number. The table was named the periodic table because similar properties occur at regular intervals. Elements with similar properties are in columns called groups. Elements to the left of this line are metals.

  2. Mendeleev's ideas are still in use today. However, the modern periodic table arranges the elements by increasing atomic number, rather than atomic mass.

  3. A table of the chemical elements arranged in order of atomic number, usually in rows, so that elements with similar atomic structure (and hence similar chemical properties) appear in...

    The periodic table is a graphical layout that not only gives information about individual elements, but also elements that have similar properties. The seven rows in the periodic table are known as the Periods. Each element in a particular row has the same number of electron shells surrounding the atomic nucleus. The elements hydrogen and helium ha...

    Some periodic tables also have something known as graphic indicators,which are nothing but color-coded periodic tables. These colors represent the state of the element at zero degrees Celsius. The border of the element may hint at what kind of element it is. If it has a solid border, it’s a naturally occurring element, whereas if it has a dotted bo...

    At the bottom of the periodic table is two additional rows of elements containing a total of fourteen elements. The top row elements are called Lanthanides orrare earth elements. The bottom row of elements are called Actinides. These begin at element number 90 and end at 103. However, there are elements beyond 103, as well as a continuous effort to...

  4. The modern periodic table lists the elements in order of increasing atomic number (the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom). Historically, however, relative atomic masses were used by scientists trying to organise the elements.

  5. Mendeleev made an early periodic table. In the modern periodic table, elements are in order of atomic number in periods and groups. Electronic structures model how electrons are...

  6. The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of the elements, is an ordered arrangement of the chemical elements into rows ("periods") and columns ("groups"). It is an icon of chemistry and is widely used in physics and other sciences.
