Singaporeans love a good light‑up. Few sights spark more excitement than the dazzling bursts over Marina Bay during National Day celebrations each 9 August. Whether you were perched on the Padang or watching from your living room window, those brilliant colours dancing across the night sky probably left you wide‑eyed and full of questions.

The periodic table is one of the first things we encounter in chemistry lessons during secondary 3. It’s a colourful chart full of symbols, numbers, and patterns that seem to hold the secrets of matter itself. We memorise the elements, learn about their groups, and try to understand why they’re arranged the way they are. But have you ever stopped to wonder if this table ever changes? Is the periodic table fixed forever, or does it evolve as science progresses? These questi
