The basic Periodic Table shows an element's symbol, an atomic number, and they are arranged by it's group which is vertical column, and it's period which is horizontal row. The expanded table gives more information about each element, such as Atomic Mass, electronegativity and other values. It also tells you the atomic number, how many electrons, and neutrons are there in the symbol. The element. towards the left on the table are metals. The elements towards the right on the table are non-metals. The number of each element has on the periodic table is the number of protons that the element contains. It has the number of outer energy levels.
A periodic table can tell you: How many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in a single atom of the element. If it is a metal, metalloid, or a non-metal. How many electrons are in the valence shell. And which family the element belongs to.
All of the elements that have been discovered by man. They are listed in order of increasing atomic number, in rows (periods) and columns (groups) that show related characteristics.

The periodic table shows the element's symbol and its atomic number, with period and group headings at the side and top, and often colors to designate related groups and subgroups.
It tells what an element is classified as and it tells the atomic mass of each element
Element's name, atomic symbol, atomic number & mass, number of neutrons, protons, and electrons, its group, if its a metal nonmetal or metalloid, and number of valence electrons.
First of all you can read the atomic number, which is the value of the number of protons in the nucleus and this is equal to the number of electrons of the atomic element.
symbol and name of the element

atomic number (hence number of protons / electrons)

mass number (hence number of neutrons)

electronic configuration

whether the element is solid, liquid or gas

Whether the element is metal, metalloid or non-metal

Some versions of periodic tables will even list electronegativities or atomic size.
The periodic table tells us the Chemical Symbol for each element, the Atomic Weight/Mass, also the name and the charge.

The position of each element also corresponds to it's electron configuration, and the relationships of the positions can also be used to understand how they chemically react to one another. Full understanding of the periodic table can be an invaluable reference tool to know what reacts with what, and what kinds of bonds they make, how they position themselves against others in a molecule, and more. Sadly, rarely are these traits of the periodic table taught.
