CALGARY, June 21 /PRNewswire/ -- A lot of amazing things are
happening in science. This story is about one man re-inventing the
periodic table so that it is easy to understand. Imagine that! The
fact that someone would dare change the periodic table suggests
more great things are about to happen in the world of science. It
is revolutionary because its radical new design tears down the
current ideas and starts again from scratch. You can decide for
yourself if this man has made the periodic table easy to understand
- simply go to http://www.rotaperiod.com/ Highlights: - It uses 12
columns instead of 18 - It re-draws the line between metals and
non-metals - It emphasizes the strength of the 4+ elements
(temperature, organic chemistry) - It does not classify the 5+, 6+,
7+, 8+ metals into groups V, VI, VII, and VIII (or IUPAC 5, 6, 7,
8) - It uses the vertical and horizontal of the page to displace
elements in a new way - It incorporates the Lanthanide and Actinide
Series elements It is called the Rota Period (or Rota's Period) and
makes Chemistry easier to understand because it is based upon
showing valence/oxidation (which determine how elements combine).
