So that the chemical representation of a compound of several elements is more easily recognized, and handled in representations of reactions.
some elements do not use their first letters of their English names as their symbols. The symbols for these elements may come from the names of the elements in a different language.

All the elements listed on periodic table has symbols for them.There are total 118 elements in periodic table.
Symbols of chemical elements are derived from the chemical name.
No single scientist has devised the symbols of the elements. An organization called the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has determined the symbols of the elements on the Periodic Table.
The alchemists were a group of early experimenters who used symbols to identify certain elements, creating a symbolic language to represent various substances and processes in their experiments. These symbols evolved into the modern chemical symbols we use today.
On the table of elements.
Antoine Lavoiser proposed the use of symbols and formulas in naming elements.
Scientists use chemical symbols to represent elements in a concise and standardized way. This helps with communication and ensures clarity and consistency in scientific research and publications. Additionally, chemical symbols provide a quick and easy way to identify elements and their properties in chemical formulas and equations.

The four elements of the triangle symbols are fire, water, air, and earth.
Elements are give symbols consisting of letters, and these are related to the names of the elements (in some language at some date). There are 26 letters in many alphabets, but more than four times that number of elements. So it is necessary to use some mechanism to distinguish among elements with names that start with the same letter. Adding numbers is done to designate the number of atoms in a compound, the isotope, and so on. The best solutions is to use pairs of letters for most elements.
