The Janet periodic table

The Janet periodic table is an excellent alternative periodic table and organises elements according to orbital filling. Therefore, hydrogen is above lithium on the grounds they are both ns1, and helium above beryllium on the grounds they are both ns2. Current Group numbers are displayed to help orientation with the standard table.

Very interesting idea I like

Very interesting idea I like this periodic table - will help my a lot with my chemistry class

Thanks Gregg

I have printed the periodic

I have printed the periodic table and my oldest daughter uses it now for her chemistry course. Thanks for providing it. Cheers, Marc

If you like Janet's Left

If you like Janet's Left Step PT you have to read article "Charles Janet: unrecognized genius of the periodic system" by Dr. Philip Stewart in January 2009 issue of Foundations of Chemistry magazine. It also mentiones its improved version called ADOMAH Periodic table (also known as Perfect Periodic Table) presented at perfectperiodictable.com that allows direct derivation of electron configurations.

Hi- I came up with

Hi- I came up with Tsimmerman's tetrahedral arrangement more than 30 years ago, based on the 9-sum of elecron pairs horizontally vs. numbers of rows vertically. At the time I thought this was the greatest idea (still do) but lack of interest by others led me not to publish (which was considerably more difficult in the pre-WWW era). I did show many my model, however, including at a local meeting of the ACS, and in more recent years described it and its rationale in numerous emails, on online discussion lists, and still have all my old (many dated) dusty notes. I'm still banging my head- at least Darwin had the good sense to rush into print after Wallace contacted him.

I understand that Jess'

I understand that Jess' arrangement mentioned in the above post was somewhat different from the one presented at www.PerfectPeriodicTable.com. As far as I know, it was not tetrahedral stack of spheres (see "Reviews" at the above referenced web site).
