That’s why this periodic table clock really caught our eye. [gocivici]’s idea is a simple one: light up three different elements with ... a sense of time. The 3D printed frame of the clock ...

Electronegativity, an essential characteristic of all elements in the periodic table, measures an atom's ability to attract electrons towards itself within a chemical bond. This vital theoretical ...

A further quandry arises when we examine the ionisation energies of the d-block elements. We find that it is the 4s orbital electrons that are ionised first before the 3d orbitals. We have to conclude ...
