Periodic table circle

Description

!!WARNING: SCIENCE AHEAD!!

This shows the periodic table. It starts in the middle and spirals clockwise outwards all the way to unbinilium (120). I made it so that the first 2 rings have a quarter of the circle with 1 element per 8th, the second two rings have half a circle with 2 elements per 8th, etc. making the formula for the amount of elements in a ring the following:

- for even rings: (n / 2)^2 * 2
- for odd rings: ((n+1) / 2)^2 * 2

Rings are counted with hydrogen in the first ring, Lithium in the second, etc.

In the center you can see a dot with a checkerboard pattern (blue/yellow). This symbolizes atomic nr. 0, also known as a neutron. I don't know for sure if it behaves like a noble gas, hence the question mark in the legend.

The colors represent the blocks (s, p, d, f) and the lighter color for the s and p block are the noble gases.

One think I found peculiar is that the s and p block take up 1/2 of the circle in the 3rd and 4th ring, 1/3 in the 5th and 6th ring and 1/4 in the 7th and 8th ring. I calculated based upon predictions of the g-block that it would also take up 1/5 of the 9th and 10th ring, but as you can see, those rings couldn't be shown in this image, since they would be 1 1/4 circle long.

Also, some may recognize that this isn't the common periodic table. In fact, it is, but it has a different layout called Janet left-step periodic table.

I think you should discuss this deeper with Uncle Kage. Some lad would upload it on YT and I'd be like "Hayl noe! Me too dumb fotha'!"
