DESCRIPTION

List atomic properties of elements in the periodic table. A variety of methods are available to specify elements of interest: atomic numbers, element symbols, American or European style group labels, IUPAC group numbers, period numbers, and group names.

Atomic properties data, in addition to basic information about the periodic table elements, is also available for these categories: atomic radii, bulk properties, common valences, electronegativities, electron affinities, historical data, ionization energies, natural isotopes, oxidation states, and thermal properties.

Natural isotopes data include mass number, relative atomic mass and percent natural abundance for each isotope of an element.

PARAMETERS

ElementIDs ElementSymbol [AtomicNumber...] | GroupLabel [GroupLabel...] | GroupNumbel [GroupNumber...] | PeriodNumber [PeriodNumbe...]

Command line specification of elements is mode specific. In general, it's a space delimited list of values to identify elements. All element IDs must correspond to a specific mode; mixed specifications is not supported.

For ElementID mode, input value format is: AtomicNumber [ElementSymbol ...]. Default: H. Examples:

C

For IUPAC GroupNumber mode, input value format is: GroupNumber [GroupNumber...]. Default: 1. Possible group label values are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18. Examples:

1
1 14 12

For GroupName mode, input value format is: GroupName [GroupName...]. Default: AlkaliMetals. Possible group name values are: AlkaliMetals AlkalineEarthMetals Chalcogens CoinageMetals Halogens NobleGases Pnictogens Lanthanides or Lanthanoids, Actinides or Actinoids. Examples:

For PeriodNumber mode, input value format is: PeriodNumber [PeriodNumber,...]. Default: 1. Possible group label values are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7. Examples:

For All mode, no input value is needed and atomic properties information is listed for all the elements.

OPTIONS

-h, --help

Print this help message.

-m, --mode ElementID | AmericanGroupLabel | EuropeanGroupLabel | GroupNumber | GroupName | PeriodNumber | All

Specify elements for listing atomic properties using one of these methods: atomic numbers and/or element symbols list, American style group labels, European style group labels, IUPAC group number, group names, period numbers, or all elements.

Possible values: ElementID, AmericanGroupLabel, EuropeanGroupLabel, GroupNumber, GroupName, PeriodNumber, All. Default: ElementID.

--outdelim comma | tab | semicolon

Output text file delimiter. Possible values: comma, tab, or semicolon Default value: comma.

--output STDOUT | File

List information at STDOUT or write it to a file. Possible values: STDOUT or File. Default: STDOUT. -r, --root option is used to generate output file name.

--outputstyle ElementBlock | ElementRows

Specify how to list element information: add a new line for each property and present it as a block for each element; or include all properties in one line and show it as a single line.

Possible values: ElementBlock | ElementRows. Default: ElementBlock

An example for ElementBlock output style:

Atomic number: 1
Element symbol: H
Element name: Hydrogen
Atomic weight: 1.00794
... ...
... ...

Atomic number: 6
Element symbol: C
Element name: Carbon
Atomic weight: 12.0107
... ...
... ...

An example for ElementRows output style:

Atomic number, Element symbol, Elemenet name, Atomic weight, ...
1,H,Hydrogen,1.00794,..
6,C,Carbon,12.0107,..
-o, --overwrite

Overwrite existing files.

--precision number

Precision for listing numerical values. Default: up to 4 decimal places. Valid values: positive integers.

--propertiesmode Categories | Names | All

Specify how property names are specified: use category names; explicit list of property names; or use all available properties. Possible values: Categories, Names, or All. Default: Categories.

This option is used in conjunction with -p, --properties option to specify properties of interest.

-p, --properties CategoryName,[CategoryName,...] | PropertyName,[PropertyName,...]

This option is --propertiesmode specific. In general, it's a list of comma separated category or property names.

Specify which atomic properties information to list for the elements specified using command line parameters: list basic and/or isotope information; list all available information; or specify a comma separated list of atomic property names.

Possible values: Basic| BasicAndNaturalIsotope | NaturalIsotope | PropertyName,[PropertyName,...]. Default: Basic.

Basic includes: AtomicNumber, ElementSymbol, ElementName, AtomicWeight, GroundStateConfiguration, GroupNumber, PeriodNumber, FirstIonizationEnergy.

NaturalIsotope includes: AtomicNumber, ElementSymbol, ElementName, MassNumber, RelativeAtomicMass, NaturalAbundance.
