Alternative Periodic System of the Elements

Abstract

For more than 150 years since the discovery of the periodic table of elements, there has been a need for its constant supplementation and improvement. As a result, today there are over 700 different periodic systems that aim to present the position of the elements more simply, effectively in the periodic table, their interrelationships and the possibility of building different compounds. In addition to two- dimensional, both three- and four-dimensional systems of elements have appeared. All of them, in addition to their great didactic significance, also have great scientific significance and represent guidelines for scientists in various multidisciplinary research. The exploration of new elements of both a more perfect and a comprehensive periodic table continues.
