What is the Interactive Periodic Table?

The Interactive Periodic Table is a free, modern web application that displays all 118 elements with detailed properties, 3D Bohr model visualizations, crystal structure renderings, and text-to-speech pronunciation. It works on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.

What information is available for each element?

Each element page includes atomic number, atomic mass, electron configuration, physical properties (density, melting and boiling points, state of matter), chemical properties (electronegativity, ionization energy, electron affinity), an interactive 3D Bohr model, 3D crystal structure, and an AI-generated educational summary.

Can I use this periodic table for teaching?

Yes. The Interactive Periodic Table includes a full-screen mode designed for projectors and classroom presentations. All content is educational and completely free to use without registration.

Does it work on mobile devices?

Yes. The web app is fully responsive and also available as native iOS and Android apps that can be downloaded from the app stores.

What are the 3D visualizations?

Each element features an interactive 3D Bohr model showing electron shells orbiting the nucleus, and a 3D crystal structure rendering showing the element's atomic arrangement. Both are powered by Three.js and React Three Fiber.

Is this periodic table free?

Yes, the Interactive Periodic Table is completely free with no registration, no ads, and no data collection required.

How many elements are included?

All 118 confirmed elements from Hydrogen (H, atomic number 1) through Oganesson (Og, atomic number 118) are included with full data and visualizations.

Can I hear how element names are pronounced?

Yes. The text-to-speech feature allows you to hear the correct pronunciation of any element name. This works on both the web version and native mobile apps.

Brief Introduction

Neodymium (Nd) is a soft, silvery rare earth metal that tarnishes in air and is one of the most important rare earth elements due to its use in powerful permanent magnets. Key details about Neodymium (Nd) are as follows:

Uses: Primarily used in neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets (strongest type of permanent magnet) for electric motors, hard disk drives, headphones, loudspeakers, wind turbines, and electric vehicles. Also used in lasers (Nd:YAG) and as a colorant for glass and ceramics.

Production/Extraction: Extracted from monazite and bastnäsite ores. China produces over 80% of global supply. One of the more abundant rare earth elements.

History: Discovered in 1885 by Carl Auer von Welsbach in Austria by separating it from didymium. Named from Greek "neos didymos" (new twin).

Health Effects & Safety: Low to moderate toxicity. Neodymium dust is a fire and explosion hazard. No known biological role. Occupational exposure should be controlled.

Price/Market: High demand and strategic importance due to magnet applications. Prices can be volatile based on Chinese production and export policies. Classified as a critical mineral for clean energy and defense.

Properties: Soft and malleable, tarnishes rapidly in air, exhibits +3 oxidation state primarily, strongly paramagnetic, and forms powerful permanent magnets when alloyed with iron and boron.
