periodic law

Aligned to literacy in science and technical subjects, this volume helps students understand the central ideas of Mendeleyev's periodic law. Mendeleyev's major breakthrough was his arranging of the elements in sequence by atomic weight but recognizing that there were gaps where no elements had yet been discovered.

"Homepages" of the 111 periodic elements giving information about the elements and how they interact with each other.

Explores the periodic table of elements as well as periodic law and the man who created the periodic table--Dimitri Mendeleev.

This book introduces fifteen lanthanide elements and fifteen actinide elements and explains that these elements, some of which are found naturally in Earth's crust and some of which are synthetic, can be found in products ranging from movie projectors and color televisions to airplane parts.

Presents the periodic table of the elements, why and how it was developed and organized, and how it is divided.

Presents the basic concepts of chemistry and explains complex theories before offering a separate article on each of the building blocks that make up the universe.

"Get to Know the Elements! From the brilliant mind of Japanese artist Bunpei Yorifuji comes Wonderful Life with the Elements, an illustrated guide to the periodic table that gives chemistry a friendly face.In this super periodic table, every element is a unique character whose properties are represented visually: heavy elements are fat, man-made elements are robots, and noble gases sport impressive afros. Every detail is significant, from the length of an element's beard to the clothes on its back. You'll also learn about each element's discovery, its common uses, and other vital stats like whether it floats--or explodes--in water.Why bother trudging through a traditional periodic table? In this periodic paradise, the elements are people too. And once you've met them, you'll never forget them"--.

Presents an introduction to the periodic table of elements, showing how hundreds of different elements are arranged in groups and explaining the underlying patterns that give the chemical world meaning.

Chronicles the history of the periodic table, discussing the development of the concept of an "element," introducing some of the scientists who recognized patterns in the behavior of chemicals, and considering the contributions of Dmitri Mendeleyev to the creation of the first periodic table.
