Interactive periodic table — properties, compounds and trends for 118 elements
118 elements · 18 groups · 7 periods · curated NIST · IUPAC · CODATA · PubChem data
What is this periodic table?
The periodic table classifies all 118 known chemical elements by atomic number, electron configuration and recurring chemical properties. This interactive Mendeleev edition exposes every element's atomic, physical, thermal, electrical and nuclear data in a single keyboard-navigable grid. Heatmaps reveal periodic trends — electronegativity, atomic radius, ionisation energy, density, melting and boiling points — at a glance, while 3D Bohr atoms and ball-and-stick molecules sit one click away. Numbers come straight from NIST, IUPAC 2021, CODATA and PubChem with units in SI and zero rounding at the source.
- 118 elements with curated atomic and physical data
