attribute description and data source

properties taken from PubChem periodic table snapshot (2026-10-04). Atomic weights may be reference values ​​or representative isotope masses and cannot be considered exact constants for all samples; density, phase transition points, and phase states depend on temperature, pressure, and allotropes. The solidification of helium requires pressure. Some properties of radioactive and superheavy elements are predicted values, and missing items are marked as not included. Please check the original source and experimental conditions for precise calculations.
