Chemical Elements - Periodic Table (Bentor) Provides details of each element on a periodic table. Also provides information by element group or by characteristic, such as atomic mass.
Elements - Periodic Table of Elements (Dayah) Elements are grouped into eight classes, according to their properties. 6-00
Japanese Scientists to Name Element 113 (ABC News) "A world scientific body says Japanese scientists have met the criteria for naming a new element, the synthetic highly radioactive element 113."
Periodic Table of Elements (AmericanElements.com) Provides the periodic table, along with significant information on most of the elements. 05-07
Periodic Table of Elements (EnvironmentalChemistry.com - Barbalace) Provides detailed information on each element, including uses. 9-01
Periodic Table of Elements (Winter) Provides the periodic table, along with significant information on each element.
Scientists Complete the 7th Row (Time.com) "Four new elements have been added to the periodic table, finally rounding out the chemical table’s seventh row, officials said." 01-16
Scientists Create a New Element (CBS News) "Scientists in Japan think they've finally created the elusive element 113, one of the missing items on the periodic table of elements."
"Element 113 is an atom with 113 protons in its nucleus -- a type of matter that must be created inside a laboratory because it is not found naturally on Earth. Heavier and heavier synthetic elements have been created over the years, with the most massive one being element 118, temporarily named ununoctium."
"The first synthetic element was created in 1940, and so far 20 different elements have been made. All of these are unstable and last only seconds, at most, before breaking apart into smaller elements." 09-12
Two New Elements Added to Periodic Table (Time.com) "Sadly, they don't have names yet, according to the AP. So for now, we'll just have to call them #114 and #116 (numbers which refer to the number of protons in their nuclei and which give them their unique boxes on the table). We know that they last for less than a second, and that "the new elements were made by slamming two lighter elements together in the hopes that they'd stick.""
"Elements are sometimes listed before they're voted into the table, as was the case with #114 and #116 before an international committee of scientists gave them the go-ahead, and as is currently the case with #113 and #115, who continue to languish in periodic table purgatory. The total number of officially recognized elements, a Carnegie Mellon professor told the AP, is now 114, given this condition." 06-11
