    Study Notes

    Chapter 6: "The Periodic Table"

    • The periodic table organizes elements based on their properties.
    • Initially, only about 13 elements were identified by 1700.
    • Chemists sought a systematic way to organize increasing numbers of discovered elements.
    • Early attempts like Dobereiner's triads grouped elements with similar properties.
    • In the mid-1800s, Dmitri Mendeleev's table organized elements by increasing atomic mass.
    • Mendeleev left spaces for undiscovered elements and predicted their properties accurately.
    • Henry Moseley, in 1913, arranged elements by increasing atomic number, which is the foundation of the modern periodic table.
    • The modern periodic table includes elements' symbols, atomic numbers, and atomic masses.

    Section 6.1: Organizing the Elements

    • Objectives included explaining how elements are organized in a periodic table, comparing early and modern periodic tables, and identifying three broad classes of elements.
    • Chemists used the properties of elements to group them.
    • Elements like gold and copper have been known for thousands of years, while most others were discovered later.

    Section 6.2: Classifying the Elements

    • Objectives included describing information in a periodic table, classifying elements based on electron configuration, distinguishing representative and transition metals.
    • The periodic table organizes elements according to their electron configurations.
    • Objectives included describing trends in atomic size, explaining how ions form, and describing periodic trends for first ionization energy, ionic size, and electronegativity.
    • Atomic size trends are affected by energy levels, nuclear charge, and shielding.
    • Ionization energy is the energy to remove an electron from a gaseous atom.
    • Trends in ionization energy are influenced by nuclear charge, shielding, and distance from the nucleus.
    • Electronegativity is the measure of how strongly an atom attracts electrons in a compound.
    • Electronegativity generally increases across a period from left to right but is lower for metals, who donate electrons, in comparison to nonmetals who prefer to accept electrons and in metals.
