New Delhi: Reshika is the youngest to arrange all elements of the periodic table, She was born on March 20, 2014 in Thiruvallur, Tamil Nadu. She arranged all the 118 elements in 3 minutes and 49 seconds at the young age of 6 years, 3 months and 19 days. The inspiration was from IBR year book 2019 in that book there was a list of records which can be attempted, and we found that reciting the periodic table was easy. She had achieved that record last year. Then we thought we will try to arrange the elements of the periodic table.
She practiced for more than 3 months to achieve this milestone. While practicing for this attempt, they used wooden blocks as elements (elements symbols were written on it). They found some interesting facts on periodic table elements and her parents made a video of it and posted it on YouTube, which became a big hit. We have now started a YouTube channel and posted quite a few videos. Reshika’s sister did the same record for fastest to arrange the periodic Table.
Reshika
found it difficult to hold the elements (wooden blocks) in her small hands.
Otherwise, She would have done it in lesser time. The board length and table
height were also difficult for me to practice.
Reshika’s
parents and relatives are super excited as this was her 3rd record in India
Book of Records. Periodic table is an interesting thing to study. Everyone
should try to learn it.
