The above is a reversible xxd dump. You can try the code online in the [CJam interpreter][1].
If the permalink doesn't work in your browser, you can copy the code from [this paste][2].
In supported browsers, you can [verify all test cases][3] at once.
### Idea
The actual weights are encoded in the same fashion as in [Martin Büttner's answer](http://codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/52265), with three minor modifications:
* 12's are replaced with 6's instead of 7's.
* The encoding is done in base 7 instead of base 8.
* The order of the elements is reversed.
The difference between our answers lies in how the element abbreviations are stored.
In this approach, we hash all 100 element abbreviations into 8-bit characters, by doing the following:
* Take the element name (treated as the array of its code points) and apply base 21 conversion.
Examples: `"H"21b` yields **72**, `"He"21b` yields **1613 = 21 × 72 + 101**.
* Successively compute the residue of the division by 430, 355, 288 and 242.
Example: `1613 430% 355% 288% 242%` yields **35**.
* Increment and cast to character.
Example: `35)c` yields **$**.
### Code
r e# Read a whitespace-separated token from STDIN.
21b e# Convert to intger, using base 21 conversion.
"ú¯l>" e# Push that string.
{i180+%}/ e# Cast each char to integer, add 180 and apply modular division.
)c e# Add 1 and cast to character.
"!ÜãÌN¹V:¯dqÀHÊ;&ÁM7hX%E .#FKÛ1ÂéæJzBÚ³=kx +Ze-Ó}¿'ëå(èW{×¾LâTQ¸GPODCÆ9$I"
e# Push that string.
e# "He", e.g., is hashed to '$', which is the second char from the right.
# e# Compute the index of the character hash in the string.
"ô:`lã5àCVçi5rã(ië³ù~.ðaYÃÆËé"
e# Push that string.
258b7b e# Convert from base 258 to base 7.
6Cer e# Replace 6's with 12's.
> e# Keep only weight differences before the hashes occurrence.
:+ e# Push the sum of the weight differences.
