You can't see the row and columns headings once you are in the middle of it. It also makes simplistic - and therefore incorrect - generalisations for those elements that can occupy a variety of oxidation states, for example the transition elements. I really don't see the point of such a table. Far better to look at the Periodic Table and consider electronegativities and oxidation state for each case.

Thanks. But making your readers go to that trouble doesn't seem a great way to make the table someone's first choice as a reference.

If a professional web UI designer does it, it can be made useful. For example, it is possible to add a search/filter function. See: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_js_filter_table https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_filter_table.asp If the user starts typing, and the list gets shorter with each keystroke.. It is implemented in JavaScript, so the user's machine does everything and its speed will matter (an outdated computer will have sluggish performance).

However as some members are obviously thinking about it and perhaps benefitting I decided to look. As a result I have some suggestions. Firstly I see that you must have put in a great deal of effort to to complete this table. But I would suggest some improvements are necessary as you have to know quite a bit of chemistry to be able to use it successfully The title is Periodic Table Reactions which is not really quite accurate. It would be better titled Periodic Table Bonding. This is because there is no guarantee that if you placed some of these elements in contact they would actually react. But very often your table would indeed describe the bonds if they dis nindeed react. Secondly I can find any simple covalent bonds ? Are you shure that the Carbon - hydrogen bond in say methane is polar-covalent or dative which is another word for the charge separation effect ? Then of course your tabular entries for molecules such as oxygen., hydrogen, nitrogen are blank, whereas they should be covalent. How would you classify ozone ? You also have blanks where it should read 'metallic bonding'. As regards Science Forums, perhaps if you pasted a screenshot of just the top left corner, and satated that the full table is available at xxx that would cover forum rules. Ask a moderator, some have chemistry backgrounds.
openlyfescience Posted April 30, 2023 Author Posted April 30, 2023 Thank you all for your responses. As for being 100% correct ( probably not ) it was my first attempt at comparing electronegatives using an algorithm. The purpose was to inspire possibilities as any other science experiment would. WD-40 was not created on the first try, which I realize my project needs more work. But I did collect responses you all have made so i can take the chance to make it more accurate and read friendly.

OK, I'm delighted you have replied. We get a lot of bots and drive-by spammers and I thought you might be one of those. I do think there's a problem with multiple oxidation states. Higher oxidation states of, for example, transition elements, tend to form bonds that have a lot more covalent character than lower oxidation states of the same element. This is not surprising when one thinks of the ionisation energies or, which comes to the same thing, the polarising power of a highly charged cation. I also wonder if you might give a better overall sense of what is going on if you were to use a colour coding scheme to distinguish the types of bond, instead of writing out the text each time. After all, you only mention 2 or 3 types of bonding. But good luck with your project. 1

Check this page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronegativities_of_the_elements_(data_page) There is not a single way to calculate electronegativity. Even in Pauling scale, Kr, Xe, Rn have data (and they have unstable, hard to made, compounds).

Then, I ran it through this algorithim. ( It may still need work ) // Create an array to hold the reaction data for each element $reactions = []; // Loop through each element and compare it to every other element to calculate its reaction foreach ($elements as $element1 => $properties1) { $reactions[$element1] = []; foreach ($elements as $element2 => $properties2) { if ($element1 == $element2) { $reactions[$element1][$element2] = null; } else { $delta_electronegativity = abs($properties1['electronegativity'] - $properties2['electronegativity']); if ($delta_electronegativity <= 1.6) { $reactions[$element1][$element2] = 'polar covalent'; } else { $reactions[$element1][$element2] = 'ionic'; } } } } Do you want to discuss chemistry or computer programming?

Even in Pauling scale, Kr, Xe, Rn have data (and they have unstable, hard to made, compounds). Agreed. As there is not a single way to create a light. Thank you for the link tho. I will look more into it. Also, it is not uncommon for someone to test multple ways before conducting live test. For instance I was planning to calculate using valence electrons.

The most appropriate way would be an ionization energy table. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionization_energies_of_the_elements_(data_page) ..but the higher the atomic number, the less data is in this table.. Here is yet another but requires conversion from kJ/mol to eV: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_ionization_energies_of_the_elements ps. It is clear from these tables that non-valent electrons require much higher energies..
