The image you've uploaded is a table that lists the names of chemical elements and their corresponding chemical symbols. The table has two columns:
-
Element: Lists the full name of the element.
-
Symbol: Lists the chemical symbol for each element.
Here’s the list from the image:
| Element | Symbol |
|-------------|--------|
| Hydrogen | H |
| Helium | He |
| Lithium | Li |
| Beryllium | Be |
| Boron | B |
| Carbon | C |
| Nitrogen | N |
| Oxygen | O |
| Fluorine | F |
| Neon | Ne |
Explanation:
This table shows the standard chemical symbols used to represent each element. These symbols are derived from the element's English name or its Latin name (e.g., "Fe" for Iron comes from *Ferrum*).
For example:
-
Hydrogen →
H (from the first letter of the name)
-
Helium →
He (first two letters)
-
Lithium →
Li (first two letters)
-
Beryllium →
Be (first two letters)
-
Boron →
B (first letter)
-
Carbon →
C (first letter)
-
Nitrogen →
N (first letter)
-
Oxygen →
O (first letter)
-
Fluorine →
F (first letter)
-
Neon →
Ne (first two letters)
These symbols are universally accepted in chemistry and science to represent elements in formulas, equations, and periodic tables.
If your task was to match the elements with their symbols, this table already does that correctly.

Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of chemistry elements and symbols.
