List of chemical elements
This list of chemical elements contains all 118 elements known to date and some of their properties.
Legend
The element symbols are color-coded according to element categories :
Alkali metals | Alkaline earth metals | Lanthanoids | Actinoids | Transition metals | Metals | Semi-metals | Non-metals | Halogens | Noble gases | Chemistry unknown |
The maximum and minimum values for density , melting point , boiling point and the number of stable isotopes are highlighted in color.

Different element names
This section deals with different spellings of element names, (partly outdated) foreign-language terms and symbols as well as multiple names and symbols that exist at times.
The German spellings are not specially marked, the English with English, French with French, Russian with Russian, Latin with Latin, Greek with Greek. The elements are sorted according to the ordinal number. Only elements with different names or spellings are listed, including outdated ones. Almost all entries (up to element 103) come from the book Brockhaus ABC Chemie, GDR, 1965.
