Periodic Table Display |
 |
|
 |
The atomic number, atomic weight and symbol for each element are displayed. The background colour of each element is linked to the Group to which it belongs. |
 |
|
 |
The top of the screen displays either the Absorption or Emission Spectrum for the currently selected element. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Left-clicking on the Spectrum will open the glossary item for either Absorption or Emission Spectra. Right-clicking will allow you to select which of the two types of spectra to display. |
 |
Clicking on an element will open its data page in the right hand side Data Window. |
 |
By default, the Periodic Table display is set to colour the elements depending on the Group to which each belongs. There are three additional ways of altering this display: Colour, Graph and Both. This is referred to as On Table Graphing. |
 |
Example (both): |
|
 |
As demonstrated below: |
 |

 |
In addition to the default display, the elements can be shown according to their values with respect to the following properties: |
 |
Abundance (Earth's Crust),
Abundance (Sun),
Abundance (Universe),
Abundance (Human by #atoms),
Atomic Number,
Atomic Mass,
Atomic Radius,
Atomic Volume,
Brinell Hardness,
Boiling Point,
Bulk Modulus,
Density,
Discovery Location,
Electrical Conductivity,
Electronegativity,
Enthalpy of Fusion,
Enthalpy of Vapourisation,
Heat Capacity,
Melting Point,
Magnetic Ordering,
Poisson Ratio
Shear Modulus,
Speed of Sound,
Thermal Conductivity,
Thermal Expansion, Vickers Hardness,
Young's Modulus,
Discovery Date,
Abundance (Human by #weight),
Electrical Resistivity,
Atomic Radius (Bohr),
Atomic Radius (Covalent)
Atomic Radius (Van der Waals),
Atomic Radius (Triple bond),
Atomic Radius (Metallic),
Mass magnetic susceptibility,
Molar magnetic susceptibility,
Enthalpy of Atomization and
Valence Electron Potential. |
 |
The background colour of each element reflects its value relative to the other elements with respect to each property selected. The values range from lowest (purple) to highest (red) based on the spectrum displayed: |
 |
|
 |
This is default, right mouse button on the gradient to see a list of available colour gradients. |
 |
 |
|
 |
The Solid, Liquid and Gas buttons show the state of each element at standard conditions: 1 atmosphere of pressure at 0°C (273.15K). |
 |
The Synthetic button shows those elements that are synthetic (man-made). |
 |
The Dynamic button shows the changing states of the elements as you slide from 0°K to 6000°K when the Temperature tab is selected. The More tab gives you three additional options: Occurrence, Block and Goldschmidt, each with its own scheme. |
