Chemie in unserer Zeit: special issue at the end of the year
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/toc/10.1002/(ISSN)1521-3781.periodic table

The journal "Chemie in unserer Zeit" has compiled a large selection of publications on the subject in an Online special - and made all of them freely accessible by the end of 2019. At the beginning there is discovery and development, followed by portraits of individual elements, classified according to main groups, subgroups, lanthanides, actinides and heavy elements. Experiments on individual elements are summarized in a separate subchapter.

Declaration of Love to the Periodic Table

Here, Sir Martyn Poliakoff and his team deliver a love letter to the periodic table of elements and show how the periodic table connects people around the world.

To discover the individual elements:

 

• When which element was discovered in which country is shown in a nice graphic by Compound Interest.
• Here is a video showing the discovery in 99 seconds.

About the creation of the individual elements

In the beginning there was hydrogen, plus a bit of helium and a trace of lithium. In this video by the Max Planck Society, you can find out how all the elements that we know today were formed from this

All elements in a song:

 

• Here all elements are sung in German
• If you like it a bit rockier and in English, you will find it here. Don't forget to turn up the speakers!
• And another periodic table in English, with all 118 known elements

(Almost) all elements in a book:

• The World of Elements - The Elements of the World (Hans-Jürgen Quadbeck-Seeger, Wiley-VCH 2006, ISBN 978-3-527-31789-9)
  An overview of the chemical elements with detailed descriptions of the individual elements and their "inventors" or namesakes

Many elements on the wall:

• Magnetarium - On the trail of the elements (Hans-Jürgen Quadbeck-Seeger, Blume-Verlag, Münster, 2019. ISBN 978-3-942530-65-1)
  a magnetic picture periodic table in DIN-A4 format to set up or hang up with magnetic collecting glasses for storing elements you have collected yourself or their connections.
