The Periodic Table

Hey guys i'm back and today i'll be talking about the periodic table of elements. You're probally wondering who made the periodic table and why. Well, the person who made was a scientist by the name of Dmitri Mendeleev, and he made the periodic table for elements, but he left spaces knowing some elements would be discovered after he died. The Periodic Table is a list of all the chemical elements that occur in the universe. It also categorizes elements according to the property of their atoms.Atoms are the smallest units of an element. They are made up of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons and a number of electrons orbiting in different shells, or orbitals.







It's the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an element's atoms that determine its properties. The configurtion of these three particles is the only thing that makes one element different from another.

The modern periodic table of elements organizes elements so that it's easier to see how elements relate to each other. First you need to know how the elements are listed on the periodic table. The elements on the periodic table are listed by their atomic number, or number of protons in their atomic nuclei.






That's all for today people I might be blogging next week, PEACE.
