what is the best way to learn periodic table?

Answer 1

Don't. The elements are in a table and called "periodic" because in that form they shows patterns and similarities amongst themselves. Use it as a reference for now. Eventually, the patterns will become more clear, and as you work with various elements in chemistry and physics problems, soon the details of each start sticking in your mind. Trying to memorize it straight out will waste your energy and probably block you from seeing the patterns that arise.

Answer 2

I'd learn it section by section. It'd be hard to learn the whole thing, but if you spend a few days on each section (or group) it should be a little easier. Test yourself after a few days to see if you can label a blank periodic table as well.

Answer 3

I have learned it in groups. In columns the
materials have many common attributes
thats why it's called periodic.
You should learn the basic 8 columns first
(H, Be, B, C, N, O, F, He),
and after you understand it, continue on with
the others.

Answer 4

the best way is just learn 1 grp one day and practice by writing it.
and next learn another grp and write both the grps. in this way u can learn the whole periodic table easily.

Answer 5

I remember that me and my grandpa would repeat it over and over again. Each day we would learn to multiply with one number, like on Monday with 1, Tue with 2, Thursday with 3 etc. And every time we would take walks he would ask me " now tell me how much is this multiplied this?". I found the easiest multiplying with the numbers 1, 2, 5, 10...

Anyways take one step at a time and repeat it over and over again. That should help. Good luck :)
