• This displays detailed information about the element. The
following is the detailed information that appears.
① Atomic number, element symbol, element name, properties
② Electron configuration
③ Image of the element and explanation of the image
*
④ Atomic weight
* Atomic weights of elements that do not have stable isotopes are enclosed within square brackets ([ ]).
For example, a number like [209] shows the mass number of the longest-lived isotope of that element.
However, since thorium (Th), protactinium (Pa), and uranium (U) do have a characteristic terrestrial
isotopic composition, their atomic weights are not enclosed in square brackets. The names of elements
whose atomic weights are enclosed in square brackets have an asterisk (*) next to them.

Highlighting Elements of a Specific Classification on the Periodic Table
You can use the operations below to highlight the elements of a specific classification.
To highlight the elements of this classification:
Transition Elements
Alkali Metals
Alkali Earth Metals
Halogens
Noble Gases
Rare Earth Elements
To unhighlight a classification, select T > [Clear].
Note
• The classification of elements is not definitive. Classifications displayed by the Database app are those
that are commonly accepted at the time this app was developed.
Saving Periodic Table Information as a Spreadsheet File
You can use the operation below to save periodic table information as a spreadsheet file.
1. Select T > [Store].
2. Use the dialog that appears to input up to eight characters for the file name and then press O.
• The spreadsheet file contains the information below in columns A through D, in that order.
Atomic number (numeric), element symbol (text), electron sequence (text), atomic weight (numeric)
* If the atomic weight value has been changed, the new value is saved. For information about changing the
atomic weight value, see
Initializing All Atomic Weight Values
You can use the operation below to restore all atomic weight values that have been edited using the operation
under "To edit an atomic weight value" (page 184)
1. Select T > [Initialize Weight].
2. In response to the confirmation dialog that appears, select [OK].
Searching for an Element
You can use the methods shown in the table below to search for an element. If the element you are searching
for is found, the cursor jumps to the element.
