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 ...
This is a documentation subpage for Template:List of chemical elements. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. Used in article List of chemical elements § List .
Mineral symbols (text abbreviations) are used to abbreviate mineral groups, subgroups, and species, just as lettered symbols are used for the chemical elements. The first set of commonly used mineral symbols was published in 1983 and covered the common rock-forming minerals using 192 two- or three-lettered symbols. [ 1 ]
Alchemical symbols were used to denote chemical elements and compounds, as well as alchemical apparatus and processes, until the 18th century. Although notation was partly standardized, style and symbol varied between alchemists.
This is not a list of current systematic symbols (in the u Atom form); such a list can instead be found in Template:Navbox element isotopes. The symbols for isotopes of hydrogen, deuterium (D) and tritium (T), are still in use today, as is thoron (Tn) for radon-220 (though not actinon; An usually instead means a generic actinide).
If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add [[Category:General Motors templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:General Motors templates]]</noinclude>
