Poster2.2000.JPG (JPEG Image, 2000 × 1029 pixels) - Scaled (68%) Periodic Table of Elements [Interactive] Hydrogen Fun Fact: Despite all the nuclear fusion that has occurred in stars since the big bang, hydrogen is still by far the most abundant element in the universe, and makes up four-fifths of all ordinary matter. For a while it was touted as the fuel of the future, but it remains difficult to produce, transport and store.

At extreme temperatures and pressures, like those at the core of a gas-giant planet, hydrogen can become metallic. He Helium Fun Fact: It is not the lightest of all elements, but it is the smallest: it has a stronger electrostatic charge in its nucleus than hydrogen does, and thus it keeps its electrons in a tighter orbit. Helium has numerous applications but its global supply is in critical shortage. Li Lithium Fun Fact: One of only three elements to be created in the big bang, though in much smaller amounts than hydrogen or helium. Be Beryllium Boron Fun Fact: This element is fairly rare and has no known role in biology. Carbon Nitrogen Oxygen Fluorine Ne Neon Na Sodium Mg Magnesium.
