Period 1 element by a low-temperature separation process called fractional distillation. Period 1 element A period 1 element is one of the chemical elements in the first row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements. The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate periodic (recurring) 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 with similar behaviour fall into the same vertical columns. The first period contains fewer elements than any other row in the table, with only two: hydrogen
The Periodic Table (Basher book) website had some minor reservations about the book, but said it was "endearing" and succeeded in making learning chemistry easier and more fun. "The Periodic Table: Elements with Style" has also been reviewed in the "Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books" and the "Journal of Chemical Education". The Periodic Table (Basher book) The Periodic Table: Elements with Style is a 2007 children's science book created by Simon Basher and written by Adrian Dingle. It is the first book in Basher's science series, which includes "Physics: Why Matter Matters!", "Biology: Life As We Know It", "Astronomy: Out of this World!",
