Above, we have a different way of visualizing the elements. Created by Professor William F. Sheehan at Santa Clara University in 1970, this chart takes the elements (usually shown like this) and scales them relative to their abundance on the Earth's surface.

Ce tableau périodique permet d’ordonner, rappelons-le, tous les éléments découverts dans l’Univers (ou créés dans les accélérateurs) en fonction de leurs propriétés chimiques, de l’hydrogène (H) à tous ces gros atomes bien lourds comme le lawrencium (Lw), dans l’au-delà de l’uranium (U) et du plutonium (Pu)… Bon, mais quel rapport avec Lili et Ferdinand ?
Quel élément est le plus abondant à la surface de notre Terre ?
