Encyclopedia > List of elements by atomic number

A table of chemical elements ordered by atomic number and color coded according to type of element. Each element's name, element symbol, group and period, atomic mass (or most stable isotope), density, melting point, boiling point and discoverer are given. A chemical element, often called simply element, is a chemical substance that cannot be decomposed or transformed into other chemical substances by ordinary chemical methods. ... In chemistry and physics, the atomic number (Z) is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom. ... A chemical symbol is an abbreviation or short representation of the name of a chemical element. ... A periodic table group is a vertical column in the periodic table of the chemical elements. ... In the periodic table of the elements, a period is a row of the table. ... The atomic mass of a chemical element is the mass of an atom at rest, most often expressed in unified atomic mass units. ... Isotopes are forms of an element, therefore their nuclei have the same atomic number — the number of protons in the nucleus — but different mass numbers because they contain different numbers of neutrons. ... Density (symbol: ρ - Greek: rho) is a measure of mass per unit of volume. ... The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. ... The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it can change its state from a liquid to a gas throughout the bulk of the liquid at a given pressure. ...

Notes

  • Note 1: The element does not have any stable nuclides, and a value in brackets, e.g. [209], indicates the mass number of the longest-lived isotope of the element or characteristic isotopic composition.
  • Note 2: The isotopic composition of this element varies in some geological specimens, and the variation may exceed the uncertainty stated in the table.
  • Note 3: The isotopic composition of the element can vary in commercial materials, which can cause the atomic weight to deviate significantly from the given value.
  • Note 4: The isotopic composition varies in terrestrial material such that a more precise atomic weight can not be given.
  • Note 5: The atomic weight of commercial Lithium can vary between 6.939 and 6.996—analysis of the specific material is necessary to find a more accurate value.
