The Periodic Table! ! !


This post is going to be about the periodic table. The periodic table shows different names of different things like gold, silver, copper, and many more. The periodic table is a chart where I think it shows the Russian names that we used to call them. and it also shows the names that we call them now. The first person to invent a periodic table was Dmitri Mendeleev. He made it in 1869. Periodic tables are a good use for stuff like when you are trying to look up a name it might be on there and you could find out how to spell many words like copper, gold, silver, and many more. It has on it the chemical elements. I think that there are still elements that have not been found yet and I think that one day someone will find it. These could be used for many things if you would just think about it than you would understand what you could use this for. This is like a chart for you to use so that you can get better at chemistry, and all of that. There are 117 elements on the periodic table of elements. Isn't that crazy. This is one of the most easiest things that you can use when you are in a class like, science, chemistry, and alot more. There is H for Hydrogen, He for Helium, and a lot more, and I mean alot. They also have numbers under them and they stand for the numbers the atomic numbers. Some of them are called Lanthanoids, and the other is called Actinoids. Never heard of tham before. On the Periodic table these things are real because copper is real, gold is real, also iron os real. The elements on this stand for a word and some of the words I dont even know how to pronounce.
