[Online Tool] Forgot How to Pronounce a Chinese Element Name? Interactive Periodic Table with Pinyin and Atomic Mass

You memorized the periodic table in middle school — or tried to. But those obscure transition metals and rare earth elements? You might recognize the characters, but the pronunciation is another matter. 铥, 钔, 镎 — can you read all of them correctly?

Toolshu's Interactive Periodic Table is a fully clickable online version of the periodic table. Click any element to see its details, with pinyin pronunciation annotations and memory mnemonics built in. Useful for students and chemistry enthusiasts alike.

Key Features

All 118 elements with Chinese name, symbol, atomic number, and relative atomic mass: From hydrogen (H, 1) to oganesson (Og, 118) — including all lanthanide and actinide series elements.

Pinyin pronunciation annotations: Every element's Chinese name is shown alongside its pinyin — especially helpful for rarely-encountered characters like 铥 (diū), 镎 (ná), and 锎 (kāi). No more guessing how to say them.

Memory mnemonics: The page includes classic segmented memory rhymes for learning the periodic table, plus short descriptive verses for individual elements — for example: "I am mercury, highly toxic, the only liquid metal" — vivid and memorable.

Who Is This For?

Secondary school students: Studying for chemistry exams — look up atomic masses, memorize element symbols, confirm pronunciations, all on one page.

Science and engineering university students: Check element properties and the Chinese characters for element symbols when writing lab reports or papers.

Chemistry enthusiasts: Explore patterns in the periodic table interactively — far more convenient than a printed textbook.

General curiosity: Saw an element name in the news and didn't recognize it? Look it up and get the full picture in seconds.

The Logic Behind the Periodic Table

The modern periodic table was proposed by Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869. Elements are arranged in order of atomic number. Elements in the same period (row) share the same number of electron shells; elements in the same group (column) share the same number of outer-shell electrons and exhibit similar chemical properties. This regularity makes the periodic table one of chemistry's most powerful tools.

The heaviest element currently known is oganesson (Og), element 118, officially named in 2016. Its half-life is approximately 0.9 milliseconds — extraordinarily unstable.
