Periodic Table of the Elements

To calculate the number of neutrons for each element, round off the atomic weight
to the nearest whole number.   Then subtract the atomic number from rounded off
atomic weight.   [The atomic number for each element is the number of protons.]
Note: Since hydrogen has an atomic weight of one, it consists of a single proton.

Legend
Metals A solid substance that is a good conductor of heat and electricity. Can be formed into many shapes.
Metalloid "Middle elements" - conduct heat and electricity better than nonmetals, but not as well as metals. Easier to shape than nonmetals, but not as easy as metals. Solid at room temperature.
Nonmetals A poor conductor of heat and electricity. Not easily formed into shapes.
