Basics of Matter
- Matter consists of atoms, which are the smallest units that retain unique properties and cannot be divided by chemical means.
Periodic Table of Elements
- Developed in the 1860s by Dmitri Mendeleev, the periodic table categorizes 118 known elements based on their properties.
- Divided into Periods (horizontal rows) and Groups (vertical columns).
- There are 7 periods, each indicating the number of electron shells in the corresponding elements.
- 18 groups where elements share similar chemical properties due to the same number of valence electrons.
Groups in the Periodic Table
Group 1: Alkali Metals
- Elements: Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Rubidium (Rb), Cesium (Cs), Francium (Fr).
- Properties: Highly reactive, soft, low density, forms +1 cations.
Group 2: Alkaline Earth Metals
- Elements: Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), Barium (Ba), Radium (Ra).
- Properties: Reactive (less than alkali metals), harder, denser, forms +2 cations.
Groups 3-12: Transition Metals
- Elements: Includes Scandium (Sc), Titanium (Ti), Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), among others.
- Properties: Various oxidation states, colored compounds, high conductivity, melting points, and densities.
Group 13: Boron Group
- Elements: Boron (B), Aluminum (Al), Gallium (Ga), Indium (In), Thallium (Tl).
- Properties: Range from metalloids (Boron) to metals (the rest), forms +3 cations.
Group 14: Carbon Group
- Elements: Carbon (C), Silicon (Si), Germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), Lead (Pb).
- Properties: Variation from nonmetals (Carbon) to metals (Lead), forms +4 or +2 cations.
Group 15: Nitrogen Group
- Elements: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Arsenic (As), Antimony (Sb), Bismuth (Bi).
- Properties: Mix of nonmetals (N, P), metalloids (As, Sb), metals (Bi); forms -3, +3, +5 oxidation states.
Group 16: Oxygen Group
- Elements: Oxygen (O), Sulfur (S), Selenium (Se), Tellurium (Te), Polonium (Po).
- Properties: Includes nonmetals (O, S), metalloids (Se, Te), metals (Po); typically forms -2 anions.
Group 17: Halogens
- Elements: Fluorine (F), Chlorine (Cl), Bromine (Br), Iodine (I), Astatine (At).
- Properties: Very reactive nonmetals, form -1 anions, strong oxidizers.
Group 18: Noble Gases
- Elements: Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr)...
- Properties: Generally inert, stable electron configuration.
