What is the Modern Periodic Table?

The modern periodic table organizes the 118 known chemical elements according to increasing atomic number (Z), electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties.

Elements aligned in the same vertical column (group) exhibit similar valence electron arrangements and chemical reactivities, while horizontal rows (periods) reflect consecutive electron shell filling.

Formula & Step-by-Step Calculation

Z = \text{Protons} = \text{Electrons (neutral)}, \quad A \approx Z + N, \quad \text{Configuration: } 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 \dots

Aufbau principle, Hund's rule, and Pauli exclusion principle govern electron orbital occupancy.
