periodic table of elements

[KathChem82]

suppose that you don't know the atomic number of the atoms in the periodic table, how do you arrange the elements in the periodic table? What will be your basis and how do you explain it?

[anithra]

what is the most easiest way to remember all the characteristics of each elements in the periodic table??

[pdj]

Without scientific info I'd use alphabetical order.

If you memorize the whole periodic table like i did you can
also learn theyre properties

[Paul Robbins]

Did you memorize it by periods or groups or both?

[thor3436]

no i just learned it in order it kind of helps me memorize
the elements properties and its cool cause my friends
will say a number and i can usualy name the element
i am very interested in chemistry

[Paul Robbins]

You learned it by periods then.

It's good to learn it by groups too (I learned both) because of the similarities between the elements in each group.

[thor3436]

i kind of learned the groups ill work on that . thanks

I've never thought of memorizing the whole periodic table. It sounds like hard work.

[thor3436]

its much easier than it sounds
