The template puts an image in the element cell. Default size is 210px wide (which fits nicely in group infoboxes like {{Periodic table (chalcogens)}}). Depending on the picture size the text has two layouts:

Image: Mercury, liquid
Mercury (Hg)
80 Transition metal

Width 50px:

Image: Mercury, liquid
Hg
80

The wider layout is used by default when the image size > 60 (60px). A layout can be enforced by setting big=yes or big=no.

All cell templates produce a table cell output in pattern:
style="background:#12abdf;" | [[Gold]]
Note that there is the pipe symbol (|) in the middle (added by the template), separating cell style and cell content.
