A printable periodic table is an essential tool for students and chemists. The periodic table lists the elements in order of increasing atomic number and includes other key facts, like atomic weight. You can place it where you need it while solving problems, mark it up, and print a new one whenever you like. This is a collection of free printable periodic tables in PDF file or PNG image format to save, print, and use. Some tables are available as slides in Google Apps. These periodic tables use accurate data for name, atomic number, element symbol, atomic weight, and electron configuration, obtained from the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry or IUPAC.
This printable periodic table cites the IUPAC standard atomic mass values. This is an accurate up-to-date table for calculations and homework. Because only the borders of the element tiles are colored, the table is easy to read and kind to toner cartridges. So, you can have your color and still read tiny numbers.

This black and white printable periodic table is specially designed for middle school or high school use. It includes electron configurations, oxidation states, groups, periods, and more. Please do keep in mind the transition metals, including the lanthanides and actinides, display a wide range of oxidation states. The table lists the most common ones.

This colorful periodic table contains the boiling points of each element. Of course, the boiling point depends on atmospheric pressure. Notations indicate whether the value is at sea level or not.

The printable periodic table is organized according to the outermost electron shell or electron orbitals. This table makes the trend obvious and highlights why the table has the shape we are familiar with.

This is a collection of printable periodic tables that show the metals, metalloids (semimetals), and nonmetals as well as the properties of these important element groups. The properties of these element groups are listed, too.
This is our most comprehensive periodic table. This chart contains all the information you could want from a printable periodic table, including element symbols, names, atomic numbers, atomic masses, electron shells, periods, groups, state of matter, and more. This table is particularly nice on a monitor because you can zoom in to view essential facts.

This chart features the element symbols, atomic numbers, and atomic weights, but does not list the element names. You can use it to help learn to associate the names and symbols, like for quizzes and such. The color version of the table includes the element groups and a key, while the black and white version omits the groups, so you can learn those or color them in.

Please feel free to print the printable periodic tables for personal use and to hand out to students. You can post them in your classroom, lab, kitchen, etc. and display them on your phone and computer. You may not copy and post the periodic tables on your own website. You may not sell them or adapt them to sell.
There is no one single or best structure for the periodic table. A spiral form of the periodic table possesses an advantage in that the ordering by strict atomic number is made very clear while showing very clearly the groups of elements related by similarities in chemical properties.
There are many variants of the periodic table, some useful, others less so. A few are linked shown below. Click on the images below to see images of the periodic table in a variety of styles. Many other periodic table formats are catalogued at Mark Leach's Meta-synthesis web site. A classic book showing many forms of the periodic table in print is: Edward G. Mazurs, Periodic representations of the periodic system during one hundred years, University of Alabama Press USA, 2nd edition, 1974. ISBN: 0-8173-3200-6.
The standard form of the periodic table shown here includes periods (shown horizontally) and groups (shown vertically). The properties of elements in groups are similar in some respects to each other.
Recently, I've been working on a project called Mandy, an interactive periodic table that displays different element trends depending on what the user says to her. The Raspberry Pi/Mathematica duo has played a very strong role in all aspects of the project design and implementation.
That said, I wanted to highlight a couple of areas where Mathematica played a pivotal role in the the project. My goal was to create a periodic table display (approximately 24x18") that has a RGB LED for each element. The color of the element would then be based on a given periodic trend (atomic radius, weight, ionization energy, etc.). Controlling 118 3-color LEDs turns out to be very easy when the LEDs are Neopixels and the controller is an Arduino. Because I envisioned a wall display, I wanted the user to interact with the piece in some fashion other than a mouse or keyboard. I have started working on a voice recognition system based on pocketsphinx which I call Simplified Command and Control - SCAC but since it is a C/Python project, I'll leave that component for another forum. In summary, the final project requires that SCAC (a python script) interact with Mathematica (data manipulation) that then speaks to an Arduino via a serial connection. But Mathematica played a big role prior to the implementation as well:
There is no one single or best structure for the periodic table but by whatever consensus there is, the form used here is very useful and the most common. The periodic table is a masterpiece of organised chemical information and the evolution of chemistry's periodic table into the current form is an astonishing achievement.
Updated for 2022 - The Teledyne machine vision sensor periodic table is a useful resource for system designers looking to quickly compare sensor specifications including resolution, pixel size, frame rates and optical formats. Now with more than 100 widely used machine vision sensors including third generation Sony Pregius, fourth generation Sony Pregius S, e2v, onsemi, OmniVision, CMOSIS, and GPixel, this periodic table also visually differentiates CCD, CMOS rolling and CMOS global shutter sensors.
With so many sensors to choose from, we understand that it could be tricky to keep track of them. This handy resource organizes currently available machine vision sensors in an easy-to-understand colour coded periodic table with an overview of important specifications. We suggest printing this free poster and pinning it up on your wall for easy reference.
The first recorded attempt at creating a system to organise the elements was when Antoine Lavoisier published his table of elements in 1789. In 'Traite Elementaire de Chimie', Lavoisier listed 33 substances he considered elements, including light and caloric (heat).
"I consider it well to observe that no law of nature, however general, has been established at once; its establishment is always preceded by many presentiments, but the acknowledgment of a law does not take place when it is recognised in all its significance, but only when it has been confirmed by experiment, which the scientific man must look to as the only proof of the correctness of his conjectures and opinions. I therefore, for my part, consider Roscoe, De Boisbaudran, Nillson, Winkler, Brauner, Carnelley, Thorpe, and others who verified the adaptability of the periodic law to chemical reality, as the true founders of the periodic law, the further development of which still awaits fresh workers."
Today the periodic table is the starting point for understanding chemistry. On the wall of every laboratory or school chemistry department you are likely to find hung a copy where chemists and student can easily refer to it. It has entered into popular culture as a recognisable motif, spawning a variety of 'spin-off' versions. Thanks to the tireless efforts of a multitude of chemists, the periodic table is here to stay.
There is no one single or best structure for the periodic table. Most standard formats of the periodic table place the f-block elements below the main body of the periodic table. This seems largely to be because that results in a table with ana aspect ratio that fits on to the printed page. The images below show the f-block placed in the main body.
