    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    List of chemical elements. 118 chemical elements have been identified and named officially by IUPAC. A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z ). [1]

  3. Carbon-based life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon-based_life

    Carbon-based life. The Lewis structure of a carbon atom, showing its four valence electrons. Carbon is a primary component of all known life on Earth, and represents approximately 45–50% of all dry biomass. [1] Carbon compounds occur naturally in great abundance on Earth.

  4. Extended periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_periodic_table

    An extended periodic table theorizes about chemical elements beyond those currently known and proven. The element with the highest atomic number known is oganesson ( Z = 118), which completes the seventh period (row) in the periodic table. All elements in the eighth period and beyond thus remain purely hypothetical.

    List of elements by stability of isotopes. Isotope half-lives. The darker more stable isotope region departs from the line of protons (Z) = neutrons (N), as the element number Z becomes larger. This is a list of chemical elements by the stability of their isotopes. Of the first 82 elements in the periodic table, 80 have isotopes considered to ...
