Turn your chemistry notes into printable element flashcards
Generic printable charts list every element but skip what your course actually covers. Upload your own material and get flashcards built from it, with spaced repetition to help them stick.
Why generate your own element cards
Most printable element charts list the same symbols and names, but your exam may focus on certain groups, reactions or properties. A printable element flashcards set built from your own lecture slides or textbook pages matches what you actually need to know.
- Cards come from your own chemistry notes, not a generic chart.
- Spaced repetition schedules the elements you find hard more often.
- Plus exports to PDF for printing, plus Anki and CSV.
- Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.
Built from your material
Upload a PDF, slide deck, DOCX, text notes or a photo of a page, and the flashcards come from what you are studying.
Spaced repetition
Cards you miss come back sooner, so you spend time on the elements you have not learned yet.
Print or export
Plus includes PDF export for printable sheets, plus DOCX, Anki and CSV export.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or photo of your chemistry notes or periodic table handout.
Generate flashcards
DeckOwl creates question and answer cards from your material, which you can review and edit.
Study or print
Study in the browser on the free plan, or export a PDF to print on Plus.
Start with the elements that show up most in your notes, then add the rest in short daily sessions. Spaced repetition brings back the ones you miss, so the review time goes to the gaps.
If you need a paper copy, export the cards as a PDF on the Plus plan and print them. Free users can study the same cards in the browser.

Frequently asked questions
How do I study the elements on the periodic table efficiently?
Start with the elements that appear most in your course material and review them in short daily sessions. Mix symbols, names and group properties so you can recall them in either direction.
What should a flashcard for a chemical element include?
A symbol or name on the front works well, with the element name, atomic number and a key property on the back. Keep each card to one fact so it is easy to review.
Can I print my flashcards?
Printing requires a PDF export, which is included in the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser, but exports are not included.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month and no credit card. Students get 40% off Plus with a school email.
