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.
Click the right mouse button for "gradient" options.
As demonstrated below:
 
The "Default Page" option alters the page that is opened when one of the elements in the periodic table diagram is clicked. The default is the main page, but this can be changed to any of the supplemental data pages.
In addition to the default display, the elements can shown according to their relative values of 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 is changed to reflect its position relative to the other elements and the range of values between the highest and lowest possible based on this spectrum;
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:
 
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.
Use the Back button to return to the default display.
