Elements / by Dingle, Adrian,1967-author.(CARDINAL)318238;
What is an element? -- Inside an atom -- The periodic table -- Elemental groups and sets -- Hydrogen -- Alkali metals -- Alkaline earth metals -- Transition metals -- Lanthanides -- Actinides -- The boron group -- The carbon group -- The nitrogen group -- The oxygen group -- Halogens -- Noble gases.The elements in the periodic table are the ingredients that make up our world. Explore elements such as carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen, and learn why they are essential to our survival. See how precious gold protects astronauts in space, and why the metal mercury can be both a solid and a liquid. Find out about man-made elements, which the smartest chemists are busy figuring out how to use. Learn about scores of other elements, including silver, the alkaline earth metals, the nitrogen elements, and the noble gases, such as helium and krypton.

The elements bible / by Mileham, Rebecca(Freelance writer),author.(CARDINAL)817432;
Developing the periodic table -- Hydrogen -- Alkali metals -- Alkaline earth metals -- Transition metals -- Lanthanides and actinides -- The boron group -- The carbon group -- The nitrogen group -- The oxygen group -- The halogens -- The noble gases."This book unlocks the fascinating workings behind the building blocks of life, from the discovery of the very first elements to the formal naming in 2016 of the recently discovered elements 113, 115, 117 and 118 on the seventh row of the periodic table. They are now known as nihonium (Nh), moscovium (Mc), tennessine (Ts) and oganesson (Og), respectively...The Elements Bible introduces a complex subject and also provides insight into the extraordinary underlying stories and facts that you don't normally hear about. Fully illustrated and packed with quirky illustrations, helpful diagrams and historical anecdotes, it is sure to satisfy those seeking to understand the most fundamental ingredients of the universe."--
