| The Periodic Table (or periodic table of elements) is a table of the known [[Element|elements]] organised into groups based on properties, and ordered using [[Atomic number|atomic numbers]]. Groups are labeled from 1-18 starting on the left with group 1 and ending on the right with group 8. Group 1 contains the [[Alkaline metals|alkaline metals]] and [[Hydrogen|hydrogen]]. Whereas group 8 holds the [[Noble gas|noble gases]]. Information that you can gain from the majority of periodic table is: [[Atomic number|atomic number]], weight, and name and symbol. It should be noted that not all periodic tables will contain the information listed before. Some periodic tables may only give the symbol, and others may give more information, such as the states of the element is when at certain temperatures.
