The word elements is spelled exactly as in American English. The individual elements are spelled identically except aluminum is aluminum and sulfur is sulphur.

The same way you spell them in English. We speak the same language.

Some common words which are spelt differently in British English and American English (American English spellings are shown inside brackets):

-our (-or): behaviour (behavior); colour (color); favourite (favorite); harbour (harbor); honour (honor); humour (humor); labour (labor); neighbour (neighbor); rumour (rumor)

-re (-er): centimetre (centimeter); centre (center); fibre (fiber); litre (liter); theatre (theater)

-se (-ze): analyse (analyze); apologise (apologize); organise (organize); realise (realize); recognise (recognize)

-ce (-se): defence (defense); a licence (a license); an offence (an offense)

-se (-ce): to practise (to practice)

-en (-in): enquiry (inquiry)

-l (-ll): enrolment (enrollment); fulfil (fulfill); instalment (installment); skilful (skillful)

-ll (-l): jewellery (jewelry); quarrelling (quarreling); traveller (traveler); woollen (woolen)

-oe (e): diarrhoea (diarrhea); foetus (fetus); manoeuvre (maneuver)

-ae (e): anaesthetic (anesthetic); encyclopaedia (encyclopedia)

various: axe (ax); bank cheque (bank check); cosy (cozy); draught (draft); grey (gray); jewellery (jewelry); judgment (judgment); kerb (curb); kidnapper (kidnaper); mould (mold); moustache (mustache); nought (naught); plough (plow); programme (program); pyjamas (pajamas); storey (story); sulphur (sulfur); traveller (traveler); tyre (tire); woollen (woolen).

Note that American spellings are often used in the UK for computer terms, but not when used for other meanings. You run a computer program, but watch a television programme. A computer stores data on its hard disk, but the person who plays music on the radio is called a disc-jockey.
