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 may soon gain a new element, physicists at Lund University in Sweden announced Tuesday. A team of Lund researchers is the second to successfully create atoms of element 115.

As of 2019, the Periodic Table of the Elements has been around for 150 years. Maybe you've felt a certain chemistry with 2019 but don't know why? Maybe it's because this year marks the 150th ...

But the periodic table contains still more; the heaviest so far is element 118, oganesson, a “super-heavy” element with 118 protons and a half-life of half a millisecond.

The periodic table organizes elements according to similar properties — so anyone can tell the characteristics of an element simply by looking at its location on the table.

A t the far end of the periodic table is a realm where nothing is quite as it should be. The elements here, starting at atomic number 104 (rutherfordium), have never been found in nature. In fact ...
