Printable Periodic Table of the Elements

The Periodic Table of the Elements is one of your best tools for working chemistry problems and making predictions about the properties of the elements. Most of the time, I use the online periodic table, since clicking on a symbol gives detailed element facts that you can't get on a single printed sheet of paper. However, sometimes it's really nice to be able to print out the table. Here are a few printable periodic tables for you. Please feel free to download these to your computer, print them, and use them as hand-outs.
