The Elements

 Packed with striking new photography, DK Eyewitness Books: The Elements walks you through all 118 elements in the periodic table. From the history of when the periodic table was first created to the scientific classification of the elements into groups.

This book details what elements are and explains what lies at the core of each one of them. It then delves into the origin of every element (both naturally occurring and synthetic), where they are found, and how they are used. Explore elements such as carbon and oxygen and learn why they are essential to our survival. See how precious gold protects astronauts in space, and why the metal mercury can be both a solid and a liquid.
