    The following table gives the crystalline structure of the most thermodynamically stable form(s) for elements that are solid at standard temperature and pressure.Each element is shaded by a color representing its respective Bravais lattice, except that all orthorhombic lattices are grouped together.

  5. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    The chemical elements are what the periodic table classifies and organizes. Hydrogen is the element with atomic number 1; helium , atomic number 2; lithium , atomic number 3; and so on. Each of these names can be further abbreviated by a one- or two-letter chemical symbol ; those for hydrogen, helium, and lithium are respectively H, He, and Li ...

  6. Melting point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_point

    For example, the melting point of silicon at ambient pressure (0.1 MPa) is 1415 °C, but at pressures in excess of 10 GPa it decreases to 1000 °C. [13] Melting points are often used to characterize organic and inorganic compounds and to ascertain their purity. The melting point of a pure substance is always higher and has a smaller range than ...

  7. Group 12 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_12_element

    For a metal, zinc has relatively low melting (419.5 °C, 787.1 °F) and boiling points (907 °C, 1,665 °F). [8] Cadmium is similar in many respects to zinc but forms complex compounds. [ 16 ] Unlike other metals, cadmium is resistant to corrosion and as a result it is used as a protective layer when deposited on other metals.

  8. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    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). [1]

  9. Palladium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palladium

    Palladium is a chemical element; it has symbol Pd and atomic number 46. It is a rare and lustrous silvery-white metal discovered in 1802 by the English chemist William Hyde Wollaston. He named it after the asteroid Pallas (formally 2 Pallas), which was itself named after the epithet of the Greek goddess Athena, acquired by her when she slew Pallas.
