The Periodic Table History


the source are extract from google so yeah copyrights~ I don't wanna be charged.
okay back to the road.


As you can see.. the first one is the table with the pictures. Second one is the more detail one. Sorry couldn't find the table which has name of the elements on it. Leave comment if you don't know what the elements stands for.

For example Carbon.. it's element symbol is C as it takes from the first letter of Carbon. Different element for example Potassium the symbol is K, which is the the first letter of it's latin. So yeah..

Okay.. a little bit more into it. As far as I have studied and research..
Element are particles only made up of one type of atom.
Compound are molecules made up of two or more different type of atoms chemically joined together.
Mixtures are molecules made up of two or more different type of atoms physically joined together.
Note that the difference between Compounds and Mixtures is that one is joined together by chemical means and one is joined by physical means.
