The table is color-coded to show the chemical groupings. Small symbols pack in additional information: solid/liquid/gas, the color of an element, common in the human body, common in the earth's crust, magnetic metals, noble metals, radioactive, and rare or never found in nature.
Boron is a special case, being the only nonmetal in group 13. The alkali metal borides tend to be boron-rich, involving appreciable boron–boron bonding involving deltahedral structures, [10]: 147–8 and are thermally unstable due to the alkali metals having a very high vapour pressure at elevated temperatures. This makes direct synthesis ...
Alkali metals: The metals of group 1: Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Fr Alkaline earth metals: The metals of group 2: Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra Transition elements * Elements in groups 3 to 11 or 3 to 12 (the latter making up the d-block) Pnictogens: The elements of group 15: N, P, As, Sb, Bi † Chalcogens: The elements of group 16: O, S, Se, Te, Po † Halogens
a Group 1 is composed of hydrogen (H) and the alkali metals. Elements of the group have one s-electron in the outer electron shell. Hydrogen is not considered to be an alkali metal as it is not a metal, though it is more analogous to them than any other group. This makes the group somewhat exceptional.

118 chemical elements have been identified and named officially by IUPAC.A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z).
It is not advisable to use the earlier group-naming systems, because they are ambiguous: "group VIA" meant the oxygen group some systems, but meant the chromium group in others. alkali metal = group 1 but without hydrogen (alkali is not strictly a group name then) alkaline earth metal = group 2; pnictogen = group 15; chalcogen = group 16 ...
