I'm composing a periodic table with 2 paragraphs for each element. What are the essential properties of elements that most people would find useful?

Apart from element's name, Latin / Greek name, atomic number, relative atomic mass, electron configuration, group, period, molar heat capacity, density, melting point and boiling - these are in the first paragraph.

Mostly chemistry students. – Grant Jan 22 at 14:30
