This subsistence, or manner of being of God is his one essence so far as it has personal properties. ↗

Elements which are similar as regards their chemical properties have atomic weights which are either of nearly the same value (eg. Pt, Ir, Os) or which increase regularly (eg. K, Ru, Cs). ↗

— Dmitri Mendeleev

The elements, if arranged according to their atomic weights, exhibit an apparent periodicity of properties. ↗

The well-known fact that the form of a specific substance, e.g. water, and hence its properties can alter without a change in composition was disposed of by the formal view that a physical, not a chemical, process was involved. ↗

But the newest research is showing that many properties of the brain are genetically organized, and don't depend on information coming in from the senses. ↗

We have altered the physical, chemical and biological properties of the planet on a geological scale. We have left no part of the globe untouched. ↗

Certain characteristic properties of elements can be foretold from their atomic weights. ↗

Entropy theory is indeed a first attempt to deal with global form; but it has not been dealing with structure. All it says is that a large sum of elements may have properties not found in a smaller sample of them. ↗

Humans have certain properties and characteristics which are intrinsic to them, just as every other organism does. That's human nature. ↗
