If you're looking for quick access to a periodic table this app is perfect. You'll be able to look up all the elements, ideal for those who specialize in engineering and sciences. You'll be given four periodic tables and there are separate screens for each of the 118 elements. A well there are 22 types of specific data.

Finding data is easy thanks to the ability to search the list of elements. When searching you can key in the name, symbol, or number.

The four periodic tables that you'll find information on are Class, Groups, Representative Elements, and Orbital Blocks. The element property data is physical, mechanical, chemical, and atomic properties.

In Groups the elements have been organized into seven categories of chemicals. Class features metalloids, non-metals, and metals. Representative Elements features the main group elements. Finally Orbital Blocks groups the elements based on the highest-energy occupied orbital.

Other features of the app include full quick access to articles on Wikipedia. These articles relate to each element and many of them even include a photograph of the element being discussed.

This is a great way to make sure you’ve got a searchable periodic table available, even on the go. I found the search feature to be very easy to use so that you could quickly locate elements.
