Quantum Mechanics of Many-Electron Atoms relativity ideas [...] are of no importance in the consideration of atomic and molecular structure and ordinary chemical reactions, in which it is, indeed, usually sufficiently accurate if one neg- lects relativity variation of mass with velocity and assumes only Coulomb forces between the various electrons and atomic nuclei.

Relativistic effects in chemistry Gold is yellow (while silver is white) forbidden transition, so isolated Au atom is „white”) Bismuthis trivalent (while antymony – penta-) (whilecadmiumis solid) Mercury is liquid Ground state configuration: Platinum Pt (palladium Pd ) (while CsAg does not) CsAu exists Thank you for your attention
