Periodic Table of Elements: Metals, Metalloids, Nonmetals

Periodic Table of Elements

Color and pattern coded by category. Symbol and atomic number shown for each element.

Metal
Metalloid
Nonmetal

Periodic table of 118 elements arranged by atomic number in 7 periods and 18 groups. Each element shows its atomic number and chemical symbol. Elements are categorized as metal (solid blue), metalloid (green with diagonal stripes), or nonmetal (brown with dots). Lanthanides (elements 57 through 71) and actinides (elements 89 through 103) are shown in separate rows below the main table. Use Tab to move through elements and hear their name and category.
