The Periodic Table

The periodic table of the elements was first introduced in the mid-19th century by Dmitry Mendeleev. He organized the elements by atomic number, which is equal to the number of protons found in the nucleus of the element’s atoms.

The Noble Gases

​The noble gas configuration of electrons makes these atoms chemically inactive, zero action, so they tend to be on their own and unnoticed. This stop of chemical activity means complete rest, an inert state like a lazy Sunday afternoon in a rocking chair.

Learn all about the Noble gases right here! Take the quick quiz afterwards (it's below).
