What are the Chinese names of elements in the periodic table?
Many Chinese names of elements in the periodic table and many other chemistry-related characters were formed this way. In fact, it is possible to tell from a Chinese periodic table at a glance which elements are metal ( 金 ), solid nonmetal ( 石, “stone”), liquid ( 氵 ), or gas ( 气) at standard conditions for temperature and pressure .
What is the difference between Chinese and Japanese names for elements?
Native names. While all elements in Chinese are single-character in the official system, some Japanese elements have two characters. Often this parallels colloquial or everyday names for such elements in Chinese, such as 水銀/水银 ( pinyin: shuǐyín) for mercury and 硫黃/硫黄 ( pinyin: liúhuáng) for sulfur.
How did non-metals get their names in Chinese?
Some non-metals were already named in Chinese as well, because their minerals were in widespread use. For example, sulfur (硫) had been used to make gunpowder since at least the 10th century in China. However, the Chinese did not know about most of the elements until they were isolated during the Industrial Age.
What is a chemical element?
A chemical element or element is a species of atoms having the same number of protons in their atomic nuclei (i.e. the same atomic number, or Z). Therefore, the elements can be listed by the number of protons in the atom of each element as listed below.
