Abstract

Ce livre est un voyage au cœur des éléments chimiques. Il a pour but d'en apprendre davantage sur ce monde fascinant. Il s'adresse à la fois aux petits et grands, curieux d'en savoir plus sur notre Univers. Pour chaque élément chimique, l'auteur nous explique : son étymologie qui raconte son origine, sa découverte ou sa création à travers les histoires de femmes et d'hommes exceptionnels qui se sont parfois sacrifiés dans ces quêtes, ses multiples applications dans notre quotidien, rendant ainsi ce monde plus proche de nous. Cent cinquante ans après l'élaboration du tableau périodique par Mendeleïev, ce livre montre combien les éléments chimiques ont changé notre vie et pourront permettre à l'humanité de relever les défis qui l'attendent.

Abstract

Quel est le rapport entre l'ADN, la noix et Jupiter, entre l'hémoglobine, Mars et Iron Man, le nickel et les 7 nains, ou encore les chats, la menthe, la térébenthine, Eric Emmanuel Schmidt, le polystyrène et Raymond Queneau ? Cet ouvrage raconte les histoires des noms d'éléments dans tous les sens du terme : qu'ils soient des éléments de la nature (la terre, l'eau, plantes et animaux...), des éléments constitutifs du vivant (l'ADN, les protéines, les oligoéléments...) et des matériaux (métaux, polymères...), ou encore des éléments du tableau périodique de Mendeleiev, entièrement parcouru au fil des chapitres. Le lecteur découvre que les noms des éléments sont souvent révélateurs des inspirations et des rêves d'hommes et de femmes. L'histoire prodigieuse de ces noms l'emmène vers des mondes insoupçonnés : la nature, l'astronomie, l'histoire, la littérature, les voyages, et même les légendes et la mythologie.

Abstract

The book is an entertaining collection of poems and surprising facts about the chemical elements that make up our world. The poems are a launching point for a guided tour of the elements filled with fascinating scientific trivia. For instance : Antimony, used to treat constipation in the Middle Ages, may have killed Mozart ; There's arsenic in your prawns! (But don't worry, it won't harm you.) ; Erbium is used to "dope" optical fiber amplifiers that make your YouTube videos download faster ; Iridium was key to the meteor theory of why dinosaurs went extinct ; You'll find potassium in both bananas and gunpowder ; Sulfur plays a role in whether your hair is curly or straight

Abstract

Get to Know the Elements ! From the brilliant mind of Japanese artist Bunpei Yorifuji comes Wonderful Life with the Elements, an illustrated guide to the periodic table that gives chemistry a friendly face.In this super periodic table, every element is a unique character whose properties are represented visually: heavy elements are fat, man-made elements are robots, and noble gases sport impressive afros. Every detail is significant, from the length of an element's beard to the clothes on its back. You'll also learn about each element's discovery, its common uses, and other vital stats like whether it floats--or explodes--in water.Why bother trudging through a traditional periodic table? In this periodic paradise, the elements are people too. And once you've met them, you'll never forget them.

Abstract

The periodic table is one of the most potent icons in science. It lies at the core of chemistry and embodies the most fundamental principles of the field. The one definitive text on the development of the periodic table by van Spronsen (1969), has been out of print for a considerable time. The present book provides a successor to van Spronsen, but goes further in giving an evaluation of the extent to which modern physics has, or has not, explained the periodic system. The book is written in a lively style to appeal to experts and interested lay-persons alike. The Periodic Table begins with an overview of the importance of the periodic table and of the elements and it examines the manner in which the term 'element' has been interpreted by chemists and philosophers. The book then turns to a systematic account of the early developments that led to the classification of the elements including the work of Lavoisier, Boyle and Dalton and Cannizzaro. The precursors to the periodic system, like Dvbereiner and Gmelin, are discussed. In chapter 3 the discovery of the periodic system by six independent scientists is examined in detail. Two chapters are devoted to the discoveries of Mendeleev, the leading discoverer, including his predictions of new elements and his accommodation of already existing elements. Chapters 6 and 7 consider the impact of physics including the discoveries of radioactivity and isotopy and successive theories of the electron including Bohr's quantum theoretical approach. Chapter 8 discusses the response to the new physical theories by chemists such as Lewis and Bury who were able to draw on detailed chemical knowledge to correct some of the early electronic configurations published by Bohr and others. Chapter 9 provides a critical analysis of the extent to which modern quantum mechanics is, or is not, able to explain the periodic system from first principles. Finally, chapter 10 considers the way that the elements evolved following the Big Bang and i
