Spectral lines of the chemical elements; Z Element Symbol Spectral lines (file) 1 hydrogen H: File:Hydrogen spectrum visible.png: 2 helium He: File:Helium spectrum visible.png
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.
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 ] The definitive visualisation of all 118 elements is the periodic table of the elements , whose history along the principles of the periodic law was one of the founding ...
The UV-vis spectrum for a compound that appears orange in Dimethylformamide. All atoms and molecules are capable of absorbing and releasing energy in the form of photons, accompanied by a change of quantum state. The amount of energy absorbed or released is the difference between the energies of the two quantum states.
Several of the CPK colors refer mnemonically to colors of the pure elements or notable compound. For example, hydrogen is a colorless gas, carbon as charcoal, graphite or coke is black, sulfur powder is yellow, chlorine is a greenish gas, bromine is a dark red liquid, iodine in ether is violet, amorphous phosphorus is red, rust is dark orange-red, etc.
Periodic tables usually at least show the elements' symbols; many also provide supplementary information about the elements, either via colour-coding or as data in the cells. The above table shows the names and atomic numbers of the elements, and also their blocks, natural occurrences and standard atomic weights. For the short-lived elements ...
FA: current Featured Picture used in the infobox: A: current infobox picture is of high quality (could become FP) B: current infobox picture is of good quality
There are techinically a few pictures of francium floating around, 2 of which are on the element's article (the 300,000 atom heat one and the 200,000 atom light one), and 2 here (the black and white one of 1000 atoms, and the discovery paper). However, none of these depict the atom directly, they are just images of the heat and light emitted by ...
