    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_molecules

    This is an index of lists of molecules (i.e. by year, number of atoms, etc.). Millions of molecules have existed in the universe since before the formation of Earth. Three of them, carbon dioxide, water and oxygen were necessary for the growth of life.

  3. Oganesson - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oganesson

    On the periodic table of the elements it is a p-block element, a member of group 18 and the last member of period 7. Its only known isotope, oganesson-294, is highly radioactive, with a half-life of 0.7 ms and, as of 2020, only five atoms have been successfully produced. [19] This has so far prevented any experimental studies of its chemistry.

    [19] [20] In his second suggestion (2016), elements 121–142 form a g-block (as they have 5g activity), while elements 143–156 form an f-block placed under actinium through nobelium. [21] Kulsha's first suggested form Kulsha's second suggested form. Thus, period 8 emerges with 54 elements, and the next noble element after 118 is 172. [22]

    [16] [17] [18] A molecule may be homonuclear, that is, it consists of atoms of one chemical element, as with two atoms in the oxygen molecule (O 2); or it may be heteronuclear, a chemical compound composed of more than one element, as with water (two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom; H 2 O). A molecule is the smallest unit of a substance that ...

  6. Period (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_(periodic_table)

    A period on the periodic table is a row of chemical elements. All elements in a row have the same number of electron shells. Each next element in a period has one more proton and is less metallic than its predecessor. Arranged this way, elements in the same group (column) have similar chemical and physical properties, reflecting the periodic law.

  9. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Each chemical element has a unique atomic number (Z— for "Zahl", German for "number") representing the number of protons in its nucleus. [4] Each distinct atomic number therefore corresponds to a class of atom: these classes are called the chemical elements. [5] The chemical elements are what the periodic table classifies and organizes.
