Printable Periodic Tables

Get Adobe Acrobat ReaderAll of the following tables are in Acrobat PDF format. To view and print these files, you will need to install the free Adobe Acrobat Reader program on your computer. The program can be downloaded from the Adobe Website.

The following descriptions include a sample element from each periodic table. All of the tables will print on a single 8½ x 11 page, though some may require color to retain their appearance. The quality of the results will depend in large part on the quality of your printer. Only the first of these tables is my creation; all rights are retained by the original authors of the others.

CA CST tableThis is the periodic table used with the California Standardized Test in Chemistry. The back of the table includes equations, constants and other information available to students on the test. This is the table that we use all year long in my classes, so that students will be familiar with it when they take their CST in April.

   

El Diamante Periodic TableThis table is my own creation. Average molar masses are rounded to two decimal places. The table also includes electronegativity values. Element symbols are color coded (black = solid, red = gas, blue = liquid). The opposite side of the periodic table is a "cheat sheet" of important equations, constants, and symbols.

   

WebElements Periodic TableFrom the premiere Internet periodic table, the WebElements periodic table. Includes the symbol, name, atomic number and the atomic mass.

   

Van Bramer TableA very simple periodic table by S.E. Van Bramer, with symbols, atomic mass, and atomic number.

   

Lawrence Berkeley Labs Periodic Table in colorA periodic table with color, from the folks at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. Includes the usual information, as well as electron configuration, melting point, boiling point, oxidation states, and percent abundance in the universe.

   

Lawrence Berkeley Labs Periodic Table in black and whiteA periodic table in black and white, courtesy of Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. Includes the usual information, as well as electron configuration, melting point, boiling point, oxidation states, and percent abundance in the universe.

   

ChemGlobe's Simple Periodic TableThe "simple" version of the table from ChemGlobe, this table includes the usual information, plus melting point, boiling point, density and electronegativity. Don't let the appearance fool you, it looks much better in printed form.

   

ChemGlobe's Complex Periodic TableThe "complex" periodic table from ChemGlobe. This table includes everything that the table on the left includes, plus electron configurations. Don't let the appearance fool you, it looks much better in printed form.

   

A color table from the maker of a freeware Periodic Table program. Well laid out, it includes group names and phases at 25 ºC.

   

This is a color periodic table produced by the publisher of our Modern Chemistry textbook. It is beautifully color coded to indicate the class to which each element belongs.

   

This color table from Jefferson Lab's educational site is ideal for elementary and middle school. It is eye catching, with clever symbols for phases and other properties. To top it off, each element is hyperlinked to reference material on the element at the JLab website, Education.JLab.org.

   

This is the (mostly) black and white version of the Jefferson Lab periodic table at the left. Not quite as eye-catching as the color version, but definitely cheaper to print. Like the color table, it is hyperlinked to the Jefferson Lab educational site.

   

Los Alamos Nuclear Lab provides this uniquely colorful table. It has the usual information as well as noble-gas configuration notation for each element.

   

This table is the black and white version of the Los Alamos periodic table at the left. While definitely less appealing visually, it contains all of the same information.

   

This is quite possibly the nicest looking, and one of the most informative of all of the tables I have gathered. It is produced by the Physics Lab at NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology. In addition to a wealth of information on each element, it also contains a table of physical constants. A stunning color scheme completes this fine table.

   

A good, basic table fro the New York Regents. This black and white table includes electron configurations as well as common oxidation states.

   

This periodic table comes from the website of Prof Mokeur (www.profmokeur.ca) It features a nice use of color to delineate the element classes, as well as an attractive font. It includes oxidation numbers and electronegativity. Errors present in an earlier version have been corrected.

   

This is the black and white version of the periodic table from the website of Prof Mokeur (www.profmokeur.ca) As with the color version, it includes data on oxidation numbers and electronegativity.
