Andreas von Antropoff his Periodic Table in the article ""Eine neue Form des periodischen Systems der Elemente"" in the "Zeitschrift für angewandte Chemie" in 1926. The periodic table is regularly numbered from 1 - Hydrogen to 118 - Oganesson, with "each number representing the number of protons stored within an atom's nucleus in a satisfying balance" compared to most other contemporary tables. In addition he placed the theoretical "Element zero", which had "been a matter of conjecture for nearly a century" atop his periodic table and called it Neutronium. His periodic table was in widespread use in German schools until 1945 and soon
Periodic table the periodic table can be referred to as "blocks" in recognition of the sequence in which the electron shells of the elements are filled. Each block is named according to the subshell in which the "last" electron notionally resides. The s-block comprises the first two groups (alkali metals and alkaline earth metals) as well as hydrogen and helium. The p-block comprises the last six groups, which are groups 13 to 18 in IUPAC group numbering (3A to 8A in American group numbering) and contains, among other elements, all of the metalloids. The d-block comprises groups 3 to 12 (or 3B
