There are 2 elements in the first period, 8, 8 elements in 2nd and 3rd periods respectively,
92 elements occur naturally on the periodic table.
The Periodic Table is arranged in periods and groups; elements are placed in the ascending order of the atomic number. The law of periodicity from Mendeleev is respected.
atoms that occur as 2 atom molecules (N,O,F,Cl,Br,I,H) ================ The Rule of Seven refers to seven specific elements on the Periodic Table that share certain properties. These elements are hydrogen (H2), Oxygen (O2) Nitrogen (N2) Flourine (F2), chlorine (Cl2), bromine (Br2) and iodine (I2). The positions of these seven elements form the shape of a 7 on the periodic table. The properties they share are these: They have the greatest stability in the diatomic (2 atom) form, and they are bonded covalently.
All together there are 118 elements on the periodic table, 94 of which occur naturally on earth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_%28standard%29 They do also show a wide format of periodic table with additional elements that have not been discovered, isolated, or synthesized on earth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(wide)
The term "periodic" in the periodic table refers to the repeating patterns of chemical and physical properties of elements that occur across each period (row) in the table. This periodicity is based on the number of electrons in the outer energy level of the elements.
Periodic table comprises of elements. These are arranged in groups and periods.
About 80% of the first 117 elements occur in the nature in a stable manner.
92 elements occur naturally on the periodic table.
There are about 30 elements on the periodic table that do not occur naturally on Earth, known as synthetic elements. These elements are created in laboratories through nuclear reactions.
118 total - 92 natural elements= 26 elements that do not naturally occur===========================
Because the properties of the elements change in a periodic fashion. In the early versions, when fewer elements were known, the chemically similar elements were thought to occur every eight positions.
The Periodic Table is arranged in periods and groups; elements are placed in the ascending order of the atomic number. The law of periodicity from Mendeleev is respected.
There are variety of such elements. They have not been found on earth's surface.
As of 2009, there are 118 elements on the periodic table. Of those, 92 occur in nature. The others are artificially created.
The first 92 (through uranium) occur naturally. The others are "transuranics." As of 2009, there are 118 ending with ununoctium. All together there are 117 elements on the periodic table, 94 of which occur naturally on earth. According to Wikipedia, there are 117 elements that have been isolated or synthesized, with a gap between element 116 and element 118. They do also show a wide (extended) format of periodic table with additional elements that have not been discovered, isolated, or synthesized on earth. See the related links below to see the standard and extended periodic tables.

Mendeleev created the first periodic table based on atomic weight. He observed that many elements had similar properties, and that they occur periodically, hence the name, periodictable. From this, he made the periodic law.
