Interactive Periodic Table
The Interactive Periodic Table is a web-based educational tool that lets users explore chemical elements in an engaging, dynamic, and user-friendly way. Instead of a static chart, it provides clickable, searchable, and visually rich information about each element, making chemistry learning more interactive and accessible.
Main Features
-
Clickable Elements – Each element block can be clicked to reveal detailed information.
-
Search & Filter – Search elements by name, symbol, or atomic number; filter by groups, periods, or categories (metals, nonmetals, noble gases, etc.).
-
Detailed Element View – Shows atomic number, symbol, name, atomic mass, electron configuration, oxidation states, melting/boiling points, discovery year, and uses.
-
Color-Coded Categories – Elements visually grouped by type (e.g., alkali metals, halogens).
-
Hover Tooltips – Quick facts displayed when hovering over an element.
-
Interactive Animations – Smooth transitions when filtering or highlighting specific groups.
-
Quiz Mode – Built-in quiz to test user knowledge of elements.
-
Mobile-Friendly Design – Fully responsive for use on phones, tablets, and desktops.
-
Dark/Light Mode – User-selectable themes for better readability.
-
Downloadable Data – Option to export element details as PDF or CSV.
