and produced several Periodic Tables between 1864-1870. His first table contained just 28 elements, organised by their valency (how many other atoms they can combine with). These elements were almost ...

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 periodic table of elements is a landmark categorization developed in 1869 by the Russian chemist and inventor Dmitri Mendeleev. It arranges all natural and synthetic elements by their atomic ...

Mrs Roberts: Well, elements that have similar properties to each other are put into vertical columns called groups. Now, the table is called the periodic table because the elements with similar ...

Researchers have long been hunting for a way to make the elusive elements more stable so they can be better studied.

An international team led by scientists of GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz, succeeded in determining the chemical properties of the ...

Scientists have found a way to create superheavy elements, leading to groundbreaking possibilities in chemistry.
