Chemical Elements Properties

There is a large number of chemical elements - the table or chart gives the properties of chemical elements including chemical symbol and other essential details.

The table of the chemical and other properties of elements including the chemical symbol is given below.

The chart of the chemical properties of the elements also provides details of the atomic number, atomic weight, specific gravity and the like.

Some elements are not stable and have a very short half-life. For these elements, the atomic weight is included in brackets.

Currently 118 elements have been identified, of which the first 94 occur naturally on Earth and the remaining 24 have been created synthetically.
