Excellent video in explaining the elements of periodic table the history of it, about the work of various scientists in framing the table in an orderly arrangement. Following suit the highly reactive elements the gas they evolve that is hydrogen was fantabulous. The color of Ruby was well explained by d transition elements. The color absorbed is complementary to the visible region. Finally the need to study periodic table is made essential
