A companion to the bestselling book The Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe , this beautiful photographic card deck features all 118 elements in the periodic table. One element per card appears as a full-size image on the front and fascinating information about the element on the back. The Photographic Card Deck of The Elements is the most detailed, lush, and beautiful set of cards ever produced on the subject of the periodic table. With 126, 5"X5" cards in all, it includes one card for every one of the 118 elements, plus additional cards that explain the arrangement of the periodic table, present the elements sorted by various properties, and suggest activities and uses for the cards. The front side of each card shows a full-size, photographic image of the element, while the back gives scientific information including atomic weight, density, melting and boiling point, valence, and the percent of the element found in the universe, in the Earth's crust, in oceans, and in humans. Graphics show melting/boiling points, density, electron configuration, and atomic radius. A fascinating fact about the element, as well as the date of its discovery, is also included. The cards are perfect for students but also make an excellent gift for a scientist or anyone who enjoys the beauty and diversity of the natu Review: Stunningly brilliant - I bought these cards for use in our Science department in school. I decided they would make a fantastic corridor display so they are currently being placed on the wall in our department and they look brilliant. Now ordered another set for use in our lessons, and will probably order more sets as the budget allows to build up a set of them. The cards are fully detailed and graphically appealing and can be used by any age group from about 10 years or older, though the photos are exceptional for younger children to look at and introduce to. They are also applicable to 16+ students and would make an ideal Christmas or birthday gift to anyone student studying post 16 chemistry as a top quality learning aid. Review: Absolutely brilliant - Loved them

beautiful large coloured cards with information on one side that ...
I cannot praise these enough, beautiful large coloured cards with information on one side that is easy to read and understand. and the element formula on the other. I bought the book for my older grandson 12 which he loves and the cards for the younger one 9 which he also loves an excellent way for them to learn, can really recommend both., The cards were taken to school and the teacher took details and intends to get a set.

Great for revision
These are nice for revision or to play a more complicated version of top trumps. I imagine they are great for revision for alevels or even first year degree chemistry. However, they don't have the newly discovered elements on them. Haven't been updated since 2008 I think.

One of the best
These cards are fantastic, an amazing learning resource for anyone interested in chemistry, or the elements. Each card has all the information you would want or need, with a fun little fact about each one. The pictures of each element are really good, great for putting the elements into context. Definitely recommend this!

LITERALLY AMAZING
I loved these, they tell you so much useful information, you can put them together and they come in a nice small box, honestly, this is one of the best things i ever have bought my son. HE LOVES THESE. one thing he did say though, the elements towards the end have no facts and are named before there formal name was decided, therefore this deck is a little out of date, but he says its amazing

Brilliant
Absolutely brilliant. They give you snappy details about each element all on one flash card. My 5 year old loves them and lays them all out whenever he gets a chance. A must buy.

Muy bien
Fichas muy completas y grandes, de color y con información muy completa cada una de ellas. Por fin unas tarjetas con todo lo necesario para aprender y disfrutar de cada elemento de la Tabla periódica. Las primeras que me enviaron estaban algunas defectuosas aún estando totalmente precintadas. Amazon enseguida me envió una caja nueva y todo resuelto. Perfecto.Gracias.

Amazing. Though the cards are thin placard. Not laminated. Be careful while handling

PSE zum Selberauslegen
Man braucht schon einen etwas größeren Tisch bzw. den Boden eines mittelgroßen Raumes, um alle Elemente vor sich auszubreiten. Dann bieten diese großen und übersichtlich mit allen wichtigen Informationen bedruckten Karten allerdings einen tollen Überblick über die chemischen Elemente! Unbedingt zu haben dabei ist das dazugehörige Buch und auch für Buch-Allein-Besitzer ist dieses Kartenspiel ein absolutes Muss! Geeignet auch zum Lernen für StudentInnen / Abiturientinnen mit Schwerpunkt Chemie bzw. als Quartett (sammle alle Elemente einer Gruppe oder Periode)!

I love this little box of pictures of the elements
I love this little box of pictures of the elements! Photos on one side and a write up on the other. It really helps to actually see the elements to learn them. A great learning tool.
