Block (periodic table) reactivity decreases as the atomic number increases. When a halogen combines with another element, the resulting compound is called a halide. One of the best examples of a halide is sodium chloride (NaCl). The d-block is on the middle of the periodic table and includes elements from columns 3 through 12. These elements are also known as the transition metals because they show a transitivity in their properties i.e. they show a trend in their properties in simple incomplete d orbitals. Transition basically means d orbital lies between s and p orbitals and shows a transition from properties of s
Extended periodic table (detailed cells) Extended periodic table (detailed cells) This is a large version of the extended periodic table of the chemical elements. For the natural isotopic composition of each element it shows "name", "atomic number", "symbol", "standard atomic weight" (or atomic weight) and a link to the element's isotopes. It also has, by keyed markings, a notification of "occurrence", "state of matter" and "metallic character". It is named "extended" because it shows elements that are theoretical only (in period 8), and "large" means that the table might exceed page width. The presentation is wide which means that there are no table parts separated
