Hi all,

I came across with a very useful periodic table recently, and thought you would find it useful in your studies as well.

You can download it here:

http://spreadsheetzone.com/templateview.aspx?i=290

This is actually like any other periodic chart, where atomic numbers, symbols and atomic weights of elements are listed as usual.
However, differently from other periodic charts, this chart offers additional information about any element you click on the table, such as its full name, field of usage, and some specific characteristics. I think it's really valuable and rare.

There is also a phases sheet where you can find the melting, boiling points and the size of the liquid ranges of elements you choose.
Note that the values are shown on a large graph, along with a smaller graph showing the liquid range of selected element.

This table is an Excel template, actually. So, I think you can easily associate it with other spreadsheets you’re already working with. There is a variety of options to use it in a more functional way. Hope you'll find it useful like me.

Is there an easy way to memorize all 117 elements? Yes, there is. You could make up a melody, and sing them. Melody is a great mnemonic device. This unique idea was used by Carleton University professor Bob Burk, to encourage students' interest in Chemistry. He would give extra marks to those students, who would memorize all 177 elements, and sing them in front of a 500+ class. Great idea, and very entertaining.

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find a large picture of the periodic table. I am looking to print it out and put it up on the wall to refer to instead of referencing books. I'm looking to print it out 30"x40" or larger. Thanks.

Hello folks!

We have created a new modern periodic table, it's called Per Tab.
You can find the periodic table @ http://www.pertab.com/table/.
Or you can use the periodic list @ http://www.pertab.com/list/.

All feedback is very welcome!

Greetings,

So I StumbleUpon'd this online game where you have 15 minutes to type (correctly) as many of the currently existing/existed elements on the periodic table you can. I got 62/118, play before checking my results so you don't refresh your memory. Also I can safely say I've never heard of element 109 before!

Woohoo!! I've done it!!! 118/118    

Here's the proof :

Wow, hats off to you!

Well, I should really thank you.. There are a lot of other fun quizzes as well...

I am not sure if it classifies as fun, but at the very least some questions are challenging - www.chemistry-quizzes.info

www.periodictabledesign.com - Periodic Table Design is a gallery of high-quality images at high resolution of approximately 17 megapixels.
Find here complete collection of the best quality pictures that represent chemical elements of the periodic table. Also soon you will find many variations pictures of the Mendeleev Table colored by chemical series or other features, or monochrome. Images with a special design 2D and 3D can be used for the web as buttons, banners, icons or illustrations, interactive presentations in PowerPoint or Flash, HD video or large print.
Names of chemical elements are in English but on request can be delivered in any other language. Scientific information contained in these images are being taken from the current en.wikipedia.org

Would anyone be interested in this software/program that I made for a school project?

Right now it is unfinished, and is in Spanish, the final product would be in English and also in Spanish, with more features, better logo, etc

Here are some screenshots of the unfinished/alpha program:



In this picture you can see that if you hover your mouse over an element it gives you basic information.



And here if you click an element, it gives you full information, with many tabs such as "Basic info", "Properties",  "Electronic Configuration", "Pictures of element usage", etc





Also here you can see the search tool where you can sort the elements by atomic number, or alphabetically, and search an element by name, symbol, atomic number, or approximate name (For example if you type "hydr", it asks you "Did you mean: 'hydrogen'")


It has many more features such as a practice game where it presents you with a element symbol and you need to type the name, it uses a database and the program asks you an element randomly, and another type of game where it gives you a grade from 1 to 10 (1/10, 7/10), that way you can study the names of elements.
If anyone shows interest I could enhance and completely finish all the program with many more features, and sell it to a reasonable price


Any comments, suggestions, or anything?

How far into it do you want to go? You haven't described the molecule for which you are giving melting and boiling points, for one thing. I'm assuming it's H₂ for your hydrogen, but what happens when you get to sulfur?

If you are interested in adding functionality, it would be really cool to have things like atomic radius, ionic radii, electronegativity, emission spectra, known isotopes with stability information, route of decay, exact mass, and natural abundance, dipole and quadropole moments - and maybe even a wikipedia link

I got 80 while thinking properly (first time I only got about 50 without checking a periodic table). Well done to anyone getting more than 100!!!

Hi everybody,
recently I created this resource: http://www.periodictablewallpaper.com
Can someone help me and check out mistakes I possibly made in tables?

Thank you!
