Python Periodic Table

Hi, I'm Gaurav! 👋

Periodic Table - This is a Python project for displaying the periodic table of elements using the Kivy framework. The periodic table is a graphical representation of the chemical elements, arranged in order of their atomic number, electron configurations, and chemical properties. It is a long-form periodic table approved by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC).

Features

• Displays the periodic table with a detailed description of elements including physical and chemical properties.

• Click on an element to display its properties such as its electron configuration, atomic weight, and melting and boiling points and many more.

• Its data is taken from a Github Repository - https://github.com/Bowserinator/Periodic-Table-JSON

• It can also be converted to an .apk file for an Android Device.

• It also has search feature which can be used for searching elements based on different categories like Name, Mass Number, Atomic Number, Electronegativity, etc.

• It also displays the images of the elements.

Installation

Manual Installation

• Install Python3, should work well on 3.8, 3.9 and 3.10.
