Geocache Description:


Welcome to the periodic table of the elements powered trail; which begins at Mount Henry Bridge and continues south down the freeway cycle path. Please stay safe and enjoy the power trail.

08/10/2018 Update: the Periodic Table series has been adopted by multiple volunteers.


The periodic table of elements are those approved by the International Union of Pure & Applied Chemistry.


Sodium is a Group 1 element (IA in older labelling style) often referred to as the "alkali metals". The chemistry of sodium is dominated by the +1 ion Na+.  Sodium salts impart a characteristic orange- yellow colour to flames, and street lighting is orange because of the presence of sodium in the lamp.
