Classification of Copernicium as a post-transition metal?[edit]

Is there a source that defines Copernicium as a post-transition metal? Most periodic tables I've seen list it either as "unknown properties" or as a transition metal. Skydiver (talk) 05:51, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Atomic Weights of Radioactive Elements[edit]

The usual convention I've seen for periodic tables with the exception of Uranium and Thorium, whose natural abundances are sufficient to be quantified by mass spectrometry, is that the mass of the most stable isotope is given. This would suggest that Polonium's bracketed mass should be 209, not 210, as one example. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2604:3D08:8E7E:8800:1C89:FEA9:780C:E8DD (talk) 05:50, 27 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling of "Darmstadtium"[edit]

Darmstadtium is incorrectly spelled as "Darmstatium" and should be fixed. -- Curtisgibby (talk) 22:20, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Since it's radioactive, why...[edit]

Since it's radioactive, why isn't the mass of Uranium in parens, like the key says radioactive elements are? Also, It would be good if it was shown somehow that the f block fits in to an expanded/uncompressed table. --Elvey (talk) 03:15, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not sure about this but since 238U has a half-life of 4.468·109 years, it's probably below the threshold that was applied here and considered not radioactive enough (because it really almost isn't). — Julian H.✈ (talk/files) 20:39, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Good point. However, other isotopes are far more radioactive, if far rarer on earth. ("half-lives of the 6 naturally known isotopes, U-233 - U-238, vary[] between 69 years and 4½ billion years") --Elvey (talk) 16:43, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In french[edit]

I like very much this Periodic table. Would it be possible to translate it in french one time ? --Berdea (talk) 00:26, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Consider downloading it and a free .svg editor and doing it yourself. --Elvey (talk) 16:46, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oxidation States[edit]

THe most common oxidation states are not bolded. Why?

I've added those designations into File:Periodic table large-sr.svg, someone forgot to do that here and he still wrote that it is bolded. --Obsuser (talk) 06:57, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
DONE - Thanks for the Serbian table, I used the info from there to update the English Periodic Table. —Arthurfragoso (talk) 08:07, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Needs an update[edit]

This periodic table is excellent, but it needs to be updated. Since December 2016, all the transuranic elements on the 7th row have been named and the table should be updated accordingly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jerryzhu2004 (talk • contribs) 01:10, 08 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]


I've just translated it into Serbian and updated (File:Periodic table large-sr.svg). Someone might want to check it to apply same changes here (bold is missing for common oxidation states, coloring is not correct for some elements, some values changed over time so here those are currently incorrect etc.).

Incorrect kJ/mol to eV conversion[edit]

The right factor is ~0.01036. The shown value (94.xxx) is the eV to kJ/mol conversion factor. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Light monkey (talk • contribs) 13:44, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Superscript ¹⁰ is misrendered as ¹ and more major errors[edit]

From ₂₉Cu to ₃₆Kr, 3d¹⁰ is misprinted as 3d¹

From ₄₆Pd to ₅₄Xe, 4d¹⁰ is misprinted as 4d¹

From ₇₉Au to ₈₆Rn, 5d¹⁰ is misprinted as 5d¹

In ₇₂Hf, 4f¹⁴ is misprinted as 4f¹

In ₆₆Dy, 4f¹⁰ is misprinted as 4f¹

In ₉₈Cf, 5f¹⁰ is misprinted as 5f¹


Furthermore, All superscripts ⁵ are rendered in a larger font.

Also, as someone mentioned earlier, the spelling Darmstadtium is misspelled.

I have rectified all of them, except for the large ⁵ printing. Please, someone, do that too... Thanks in advance ː)

Since this is not my own work(just some corrections), you can find it in https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Periodic_table_modification.svg My edit.

Electronegativity of Phosphorus is not written.[edit]

While all elements' EN is written at the top middle part, EN of P is not given, please someone with the software write it. The EN of P is 2.19.

Group 3[edit]

IUPAC is trying to normalize the Group 3, the current suggestion is leaning towards Sc, Y, Lu, Lr,[1] and the English Wikipidia has also widely adopted that version.

I initially forked and edited this SVG into File:Periodic table large - Sc Y.svg and File:Periodic table large - Sc Y Lu Lr.svg, but the tables needs further maintenance. For example there is already data on the 1st ionization energy for elements elements 105 to 108, and there are estimation for the others (or maybe they are already confirmed). Maintaining multiple tables is not that nice, and since this is the main table that had others working on it and watching for edits, I wonder if others would also agree to update this into "Sc Y Lu Lr" using File:Periodic table large - Sc Y Lu Lr.svg, or if there is objections.
