  2. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Periodic table of the chemical elements showing the most or more commonly named sets of elements (in periodic tables), and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. The f-block actually fits between groups 2 and 3 ; it is usually shown at the foot of the table to save horizontal space.

  3. Block (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_(periodic_table)

    The p-block, with the p standing for "principal" and azimuthal quantum number 1, is on the right side of the standard periodic table and encompasses elements in groups 13 to 18. Their general electronic configuration is ns 2 np 1–6. Helium, though being the first element in group 18, is not included in the p-block.

  4. Periodic sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_sequence

    A (purely) periodic sequence (with period p), or a p-periodic sequence, is a sequence a 1, a 2, a 3, ... satisfying . a n+p = a n. for all values of n. [1] [2] [3] If a sequence is regarded as a function whose domain is the set of natural numbers, then a periodic sequence is simply a special type of periodic function.

  5. Hong Kong Advanced Level Examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_Advanced_Level...

    [1] The examination was conducted from March to May, and the results were routinely released in the first week of July (or late June). There were altogether 17 A-level and 17 AS-level subjects in the HKALE (2007 – 2012). AS-level was commonly known as Hong Kong Advanced Supplementary Level Examination (HKASLE), which was first held in 1994 ...

  6. Atomic orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_orbital

    The p z orbital is the same as the p 0 orbital, but the p x and p y are formed by taking linear combinations of the p +1 and p −1 orbitals (which is why they are listed under the m = ±1 label). Also, the p +1 and p −1 are not the same shape as the p 0 , since they are pure spherical harmonics .

  7. A-level (United Kingdom) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-level_(United_Kingdom)

    The O grade was equivalent to a GCE Ordinary Level pass which indicated a performance equivalent to the lowest pass grade at Ordinary Level.. Over time, the validity of this system was questioned because, rather than reflecting a standard, norm referencing simply maintained a specific proportion of candidates at each grade, which in small cohorts was subject to statistical fluctuations in ...

  8. Period 6 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_6_element

    A period 6 element is one of the chemical elements in the sixth row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements, including the lanthanides.The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate recurring (periodic) trends in the chemical behaviour of the elements as their atomic number increases: a new row is begun when chemical behaviour begins to repeat, meaning that elements ...

  9. Atomic radii of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_radii_of_the...

    [1] Atomic radii vary in a predictable and explicable manner across the periodic table. For instance, the radii generally decrease rightward along each period (row) of the table, from the alkali metals to the noble gases; and increase down each group (column). The radius increases sharply between the noble gas at the end of each period and the ...
