How to Read Elements on the Periodic Table
ColoringNoon路2 months agoStart by finding the element's symbol in the middle, usually one or two letters. Above it, you'll see the atomic number, which tells you the number of protons. Below the symbol, you'll find the atomic mass, which helps you understand the element's isotopes.

Each element's box shows its atomic number at the top (number of protons), symbol in the middle, and atomic mass at the bottom. Easy-peasy!
Lemme tell ya from my days in chem class: you鈥檝e got the atomic number up top, the symbol center stage, and the atomic mass chilling at the bottom. You鈥檒l be a pro in no time!
It's pretty simple: look for the atomic number (protons) at the top, the symbol (letters) in the center, and the atomic mass (weight) at the bottom. And that's it!
Reading an element? Look for the element symbol (the big letters), atomic number (the number above), and atomic mass (the decimal number below).
