    The periodic table is an arrangement of the chemical elements, structured by their atomic number, electron configuration and recurring chemical properties. In the basic form, elements are presented in order of increasing atomic number, in the reading sequence. Then, rows and columns are created by starting new rows and inserting blank cells, so ...

  8. Extended periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_periodic_table

    An extended periodic table theorizes about chemical elements beyond those currently known and proven. The element with the highest atomic number known is oganesson ( Z = 118), which completes the seventh period (row) in the periodic table. All elements in the eighth period and beyond thus remain purely hypothetical.
