Appreciate this, also put in another link in the footer to "Report an Error" just in-case it does become a reference source. No factor of safety in the periodic table of elements.

...and then he (me) cites <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond>, first paragraph.

Thanks for responding well — a neat tool.

As second suggestion: this probably looks great on a cell phone, but on a 50" display you've got tons more space for additional elemental facts/tidbits. Perhaps detect monitor size, then keep simple for phones?

This could additional put the lanthomides into their correct placement (if window widened enough) [0].

Added something, check now?
I'm not sure what you dun'did, but you made it worse (visually).

Wasn't so cluttered before — the elements were squares (not tallcats). Silver's typo remains.

Much prettier. Could easily have larger pop-ups (entire point is to get information on elements, no?) <https://i.imgur.com/IVx5MY5.png>

Heck, even have a link to Wikipedia articles (why not?). You're obviously in the enjoyment of information sharing =D

You also have plenty of space for an example element (e.g. describe what each line represents e.g.g: density, atomic mass, proton/element #). The map's "key" if you will... not everybody knows these standardized chemnerd properties (you can then also remove the 120+ "RT" by simply placing in example element @STP, with a link to what that means, too).

Just feedback from a fellow dork am.chem.

Thanks for all the feedback. Added in all your suggestions
I like that you've chosen to use an actual element for the example / explainer.

To streamline the UI, might I suggest replacing example element (copper) with just the explainers, next to hydrogen [2]... using that elements information (without adding a free-floating copper).

If that doesn't make sense, let me know.

Thanks for being a responsive educator.

[2] perhaps use Beryllium for your example/explainer -- because then you can explain the electron orbitals too ..?

Replace the topbar (color==atomic class) location to between Group II & III elements (e.g. whitespace between Be B); does not need to be explained on example element text.

check now. And thanks, appreciate the praise, was fun making this thing.
