Description
"The periodic table of elements, first encountered by many of us at school, provides an arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic number, electron configuration, and recurring chemical properties. In this Very Short Introduction, Eric Scerri presents a modern and fresh exploration of this fundamental topic in the physical sciences, considering the deeper implications of the arrangements of the table to atomic physics and quantum mechanics. This new edition also celebrates the completion of the seventh period of the table, with the naming of elements 113, 115, 117, and 118."--Inside cover.
