a tabular arrangement of chemical elements organized based on their atomic number, electron configuration, and recurring chemical properties

a substance that is composed of only one type of atom, typically characterized by specific physical and chemical properties

one the most common elements in Earth's atmosphere

a chemical element in gas form with no color that living things need for breathing

a clean and renewable fuel that can be used in fuel cells to generate electricity to power vehicles

a nonmetal element that can be found in all organic compounds and living things

a metallic chemical element with a silvery-gray appearance, widely used for making tools, steel, buildings, and various industrial products

a chemical element, vital for fluid balance and nerve impulses, commonly found in table salt and processed foods

a soft silver-white metal that is an important element in bones and teeth

a chemical element that is crucial for fluid balance, nerve signals, and muscle contractions, commonly found in bananas, potatoes, and leafy greens

a light silver-gray metal used primarily for making cooking equipment and aircraft parts

a chemical element that is a shiny gray solid, crucial for muscle and nerve function, found in green leafy vegetables and nuts

a chemical element that is a colorless noble gas which is lighter than air

a soft, silver-white metal element, characterized by its light weight and high reactivity, commonly used in rechargeable batteries

(chemistry) a colorless, odorless, inert gas that glows red-orange when electrified and is found in tiny amounts in the air

a type of gas present in the sky that protects the life on earth from the harmful rays of the sun

a tetravalent nonmetallic element; next to oxygen it is the most abundant element in the earth's crust; occurs in clay and feldspar and granite and quartz and sand; used as a semiconductor in transistors

a poisonous chemical element with properties of both metals and nonmetals that is grey in color, used in industry or as a pesticide

a chemical element that is a bluish-white gas, used for disinfecting water, maintaining pool hygiene, and as an active sanitizing agent in household cleaners

a metallic chemical element that has a red-brown color, primarily used as a conductor in wiring

a nonmetallic univalent element belonging to the halogens; usually a yellow irritating toxic flammable gas; a powerful oxidizing agent; recovered from fluorite or cryolite or fluorapatite

a valuable yellow-colored metal that is used for making jewelry

a purple-black chemical element essential for thyroid hormone synthesis, crucial for metabolism and overall growth that can be found in the seawater

a heavy soft metal, used in making bullets, in plumbing and roofing, especially in the past

a chemical element with a shiny, silvery-blue appearance, often used in the production of batteries and other metals and

(chemistry) a rare, silvery-white, radioactive metallic element in Group 2 of the periodic table that does not occur freely in nature

a shiny grayish-white metal of high value that heat and electricity can move through it and is used in jewelry making, electronics, etc.

an abundant tasteless odorless multivalent nonmetallic element; best known in yellow crystals; occurs in many sulphide and sulphate minerals and even in native form (especially in volcanic regions)

a hard, silvery, malleable, and corrosion-resistant metallic element used in alloys and plating

a valuable silver-gray heavy metal that is highly unreactive and ductile, used in jewelry making, medicine and a range of other industries

(chemistry) a strong, lightweight, silver-gray metal that resists corrosion and is used in aircraft and medical implants

a heavy radioactive metallic element used in producing nuclear energy

a bluish-white metal essential for immune function and wound healing, also widely used in covering steel and preventing it from rusting and corroding

a chemical element that is a shiny metal used for protective coatings on surfaces like kitchen appliances and car parts

a dense, silvery, toxic metal that is liquid at room temperature and can form different chemical compounds

(chemistry) a silvery-gray, radioactive metal that is made in nuclear reactors and can be split to release energy
