Type Alias ElementClassification

Fundamental classification of a chemical element within the periodic system.

type ElementClassification = {
    atomicNumber: Distinct<number>;
    block: Distinct<Subshell>;
    column: Distinct<PeriodicTableColumn>;
    group: Distinct<ElementGroup>;
    period: Distinct<PeriodicTablePeriod>;
    phase: Distinct<Phase>;
    properties: Distinct<SubstanceProperty | ElementProperty>[];
    set: Distinct<ElementSet>;
    symbol: Distinct<string>;
}
