The Elements by Theodore Gray

The information under each element is very good and presented in a very interesting way. However the main periodic table is too busy and hard to read. The tiny thumbnail pics are pretty useless at that scale and the element numbers are very difficult to see. Would be better if the main table was more traditional while keeping the rest of the detailed info on the first drill down menu.

This app is very fun. It shows stuff about every element, and it’s just like the book. Except you can make the stuff spin. But what I like about it is that it’s only $9.99 (that’s not expensive). I was thinking of getting it four star review but I think five should be better. There’s a reason why most people give it a five star review. I wanted to give it a four star review because some of the stuff from the book are not in here. But grabs my attention most of all is that it says that seaborgium (106) is the first element to be named after a person that was still alive. but this is not true. Einsteinium (99) was created in 1952. And Albert Einstein (born 1879)died in 1955. If it is true that element 106 is the first element to be named after someone that was still alive, then Einstein must have been named Einstein after Einstein died (same with fermium). This is my very first review.

If, like me, you endured, rather than enjoyed, High School chemistry, you need this app. It's authoritative, concise, and incredibly beautiful. The knowledge it contains is as essential to understanding what we see around us as literacy. Worlds open.

As well as being a FANTASTIC GRAPHICAL AND TEXTUAL information resource for the Periodic Table, I have to admit that I will sometimes just run the App to hear the Japanese Version of the "Element Song"! Plus, don't forget their Molecules app as well! Having SCIENCE with a SENSE OF HUMOR is GREAT, as well as being VERY WELL DONE! Scientists, TAKE NOTE!

This is really amazing, this is the book but better, but I noticed a bug(I think). It says that the oceans are 0.00044% Flerovium, and this is more abundant than calcium, which is kind o common in shells. Also I’m pretty sure only a few atoms, maybe 80, have been made. Please fix this.

This has got to be one of the most brilliant educational apps for the iPad. Even if you think you aren’t into chemistry or physics, the pictures and stories make this VERY worthwhile. Check it out!!

There are 118 elements on the periodic table. I can only view 103.

Not many apps are supported for a decade but this app will be. They’ve remained committed to it and many are grateful!

Theodore Grey is an amazing writer and this shows. It is basically the book (which I love to death, it is the reason why I love chemistry so much I decided to major in it) except with moving 3D images and an awesome song! Highly recommend. If I could suggest one thing, I wish that this app included the extra info that is is the iPad version, but this is still awesome! 6/5
