The INTERNET Database of Periodic Tables

There are thousands of periodic tables in web space, but this is the only comprehensive database of periodic tables & periodic system formulations. If you know of an interesting periodic table that is missing, please contact the database curator: Mark R. Leach Ph.D. The database holds information on periodic tables, the discovery of the elements, the elucidation of atomic weights and the discovery of atomic structure (and much, much more).

Periodic Tables from the year 1934 :

Romanoff's System

From Revue Scientifique 1934, V. Romanoff's paper (pages 661–665) Le Système Périodique de Mendéléeff Par Représentation Graphique.

Dr. Erik Strub writes:

"The article's Fig. 1 is the first [formulation] (to my knowledge) which contains a "classical" representation of the periodic system in which an Actinoide series is placed beneath the Lanthanoides and not beneath the d block elements:

Romanoff's System of 1934 (from van Spronsen):

Leningrad Monument To The Periodic Table

Leningrad monument to the periodic table, located near to the main chamber of weights and measures, 1934 (from van Spronsen):

From Wikipedia:

Brazilian Version of The Hubbard Periodic Chart Of The Atoms

A Brazilian Version of the American classic Henry Hubbard Periodic Chart Of The Atoms from a lecture theater in Rio, rediscovered by Martyn Poliakoff of PeriodicVideos.com and The University of Nottingham. From the early 1930s:

• Ma – Masurium (43) Disputed claim to discovery of technetium.
• Cb – Columbium (41) Former name of niobium
• Ab – Alabamine (85) Discredited claim to discovery of astatine.
• Il – Illinium (61) Discredited also
• Sa – Samarium (62) Current symbol is Sm
• Sp – Spectrium (70) Suggested name for ytterbium
• Cb – Columbium (41) Former name of niobium (also called Pelopium)

The current Sargent Welch version of the Henry Hubbard Periodic Table:

White's Periodic Table

The periodic table of White shows the normal state electronic configurations, from H.E. White. Introduction to Atomic Spectra. New York: McGraw-Hill, 1934,
p. 85, Table 5.4..

Helium is clearly associated with H, and placed above Be in accord with the s² electron configuration of the free atom.
