Colour key

Blue: metals · Green: other nonmetals and halogens · Purple: metalloids · Yellow: noble gases · Cyan: lanthanoids and actinoids.

Colours show broad categories rather than every individual family. Polonium is shown as a metal; astatine and tennessine are grouped with the halogens. The heaviest elements are grouped by their position in the table; their properties may be incompletely characterised.

La and Ac appear in the main table. Ce–Lu and Th–Lr continue periods 6 and 7 in the two rows below it. On a small screen, scroll within the table or use the element lists above.
