I'd use an object orientated approach and this gives me more flexibility if I want to adjust my code and makes it easier to read and understand what happens. Forgive me for the use of another language in my code, its for personal purpose and I have some trouble with English.
I made the database in 3 lists (symbols/keywords,values) and a dictionary (kategorie_farbe) which can easily moved out in a different file. The list stores all the data that I found on Wikipedia:

Here I made an object that inherits from tk.Frame and a few labels gridded on it to show the data of my choice:
class Element(tk.Frame): la_offset = 2;ac_offset=2;offset=2 def __init__(self,master,symbol,**kwargs): tk.Frame.__init__(self,master, relief = 'raised') self.kwargs = kwargs self.WIDTH,self.HEIGHT,self.BD = 100,100,3 self.CMP = self.BD*2 bg = kategorie_farben.get(kwargs.get('elementkategorie')) self.configure(width=self.WIDTH,height=self.HEIGHT,bd=self.BD, bg=bg) self.grid_propagate(0) self.idx = tk.Label(self,text=kwargs.get('index'),bg=bg) self.u = tk.Label(self,text=kwargs.get('atommasse'),bg=bg) self.name = tk.Label(self,text=kwargs.get('name'),bg=bg) self.symb = tk.Label(self,text=symbol,font=('bold'),fg=self.get_fg(),bg=bg) self.e = tk.Label(self,text=kwargs.get('elektronegativität'),bg=bg) self.d = tk.Label(self,text=kwargs.get('dichte'),bg=bg) self.grid_columnconfigure(1, weight=2) self.grid_rowconfigure(1, weight=2) self.idx.grid(row=0,column=0,sticky='w') self.u.grid(row=0,column=2,sticky='e') mid_x = self.WIDTH/2-self.name.winfo_reqwidth()/2 mid_y = self.HEIGHT/2-self.name.winfo_reqheight()/2 offset= 15 self.name.place(in_=self,x=mid_x-self.CMP,y=mid_y-self.CMP+offset) mid_x = self.WIDTH/2-self.symb.winfo_reqwidth()/2 mid_y = self.HEIGHT/2-self.symb.winfo_reqheight()/2 self.symb.place(in_=self,x=mid_x-self.CMP,y=mid_y-self.CMP-offset/2) self.e.grid(row=2,column=0,sticky='w') self.d.grid(row=2,column=2,sticky='e') r,c = kwargs.pop('periode'),kwargs.pop('gruppe') if c in ('La','Ac'): var = 2 if c is 'La': c =Element.la_offset+var;Element.la_offset +=1 r += self.offset if c is 'Ac': c =Element.ac_offset+var;Element.ac_offset +=1 r += Element.offset self.grid(row=r,column=c,sticky='nswe') def get_fg(self): if self.kwargs.get('aggregatzustand') == 'fest': return 'black' if self.kwargs.get('aggregatzustand') == 'flüssig': return 'blue' if self.kwargs.get('aggregatzustand') == 'gasförmig': return 'red' if self.kwargs.get('aggregatzustand') == 'n.A': return 'grey'
and in the end I made the window and a for loop to run my programm:
import tkinter as tk root = tk.Tk() for idx,symbol in enumerate(symbols): kwargs = {} for k,v in zip(keywords,values[idx]): kwargs.update({k:v}) Element(root,symbol,**kwargs)
The final result looks like this:
