A chemical element is a substance with only one type of atom in it (e.g. only carbon atoms). The known chemical elements are arranged on the Periodic Table of the Elements. Every element has it's own chemical symbol, which is used as a scientific shorthand for quick elemental notation (e.g. Hydrogen = H, Caesium = Cs).
