Yes. When doing symbols. If there is 1 letter it is capitalized. if there are two letters then the first one is capitalized and the second one lower case. If you string elements together in a formula it's easy to see where one finishes and the next one starts.

Note: when written in full, element names do not need to be capitalized.

The term "Periodic Table" or "periodic table of elements" is seldom capitalized.

For the element symbols (letter abbreviations), only the first letter is capitalized

e,g, H for hydrogen, Li for lithium, Pb for lead (plumbum) and Au for gold (aurum).

Yes you do! ex: H= Hydrogen & C= Carbon. If you have an elemt with 2 letters you only capitalize the first letter. ex: Ca= Calcium & Na= Sodium.
