It was formed in 1980 from the amalgamation of the Chemical Society, the Royal Institute of Chemistry, the Faraday Society, and the Society for Analytical Chemistry with a new Royal Charter and the dual role of learned society and professional body. At its inception, the Society had a combined membership of 49,000 in the world. [3] [4]
Development of the periodic table (part of a collection of pages that explores the periodic table and the elements) by the Royal Society of Chemistry; Dr. Eric Scerri's web page, which contains interviews, lectures and articles on various aspects of the periodic system, including the history of the periodic table.
In 2019, he was awarded the Royal Society of London Michael Faraday Prize [40] for science communication for his work on the Periodic Videos. He was also awarded the 2019 Longstaff Prize for his "outstanding contributions to green chemistry and for participating centrally in the creation of the Periodic Table Videos". [41]
Like the periodic table, the list below organizes the elements by the number of protons in their atoms; it can also be organized by other properties, such as atomic weight, density, and electronegativity. For more detailed information about the origins of element names, see List of chemical element name etymologies.
The periodic table and law are now a central and indispensable part of modern chemistry. The periodic table continues to evolve with the progress of science. In nature, only elements up to atomic number 94 exist; [a] to go further, it was necessary to synthesize new elements in the laboratory.
After Dmitri Mendeleev and Lothar Meyer received the Davy Medal from the Royal Society for their later 'discovery' of the periodic table in 1882, Newlands fought for recognition of his earlier work and eventually received the Davy Medal in 1887. On the Discovery of the Periodic Law and on Relations among the Atomic Weights (1884)
Chartered Chemist (CChem) is a chartered status awarded by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) [1] in the United Kingdom, the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI) [2] in Australia, by the Ministry of Education in Italy, the Institute of Chemistry Ceylon (IChemC), Sri Lanka, [3] and the Institute of Chartered Chemists of Nigeria in Nigeria.
He concentrated on pursuing his interests in chemistry and other subjects outside his trained vocation. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1793, where he became an influential member. He served as its president in 1820. [1] In 1822 he was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. [3]
