1 3 H Li 11 Na PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS 4 Be 19 12 K Mg 37 19 Rb Ca A chemical element is a pure BASICS substance that consists of one type of atom. Each atom has an atomic number, which represents GROUP 1 the number of protons that are Elements in the nucleus of a single atom of that element. The periodic table of elements is ordered by GROUP 2 ascending atomic number. The chemical elements are divided G OUPS R into the metals, the metalloids, and 3-12 the nonmetals. Metals, typically found on the left side of the GROUP 17 periodic table, are: - often conductive to electricity GROUP 18 - malleable - shiny SLIDESMANIA.COM - sometimes magnetic La & Ac Series 2 History of the Periodic Table Antoine Lavoisier (1743 – 1794) – Published Elements of Chemistry in 1789 Included a list of “simple substances” (which we now know to be elements) Formed the basis for the modern list of elements – Only classified substances as metals or nonmetals The earliest attempt to classify elements was grouping the then known elements (about 30 elements) into two groups called metals and non metals. SLIDESMANIA.COM Johann Döbereiner (1780 – 1849) – Classified elements into “triads” Groups of three elements with related properties and weights Began in 1817 when he realized Sr was halfway between the weights of Ca and Ba and they all possessed similar traits – Döbereiner’s triads: Cl, Br, I S, Se, Te Ca, Sr, Ba Li, Na, K SLIDESMANIA.COM John Newlands (1837 – 1898) – Law of Octaves (1863) Stated that elements repeated their chemical properties every eighth element Similar to the idea of octaves in music SLIDESMANIA.COM Dmitri Mendeleev (1834 – 1907) – Russian chemist (“The father of the periodic table”) – Arranged elements based on accepted atomic masses and properties that he observed – Listed elements with similar characteristics in the same family/group SLIDESMANIA.COM b) Mendeleev’s periodic table - Mendeleev classified elements in the increasing order of their atomic masses and similarities in their properties. - Mendeleev’s periodic table has 6 horizontal rows called periods and 8 vertical rows called groups. The groups 1 to 7 had two sub groups called A sub group and B sub group. Group 8 had 3 rows of elements. Elements having similar properties were placed in the same groups. There are some spaces left vacant in the table to accommodate the elements to be discovered in future. Merits of Mendeleev’s periodic table :- i) Elements were classified on a more fundamental basis of their atomic masses and properties. ii) Spaces were left vacant to accommodate the elements to be discovered in future. iii) It could predict the properties of the elements which helped in the discovery of new elements. iv) The inert gas elements discovered later could be placed in a separate group without disturbing the table. Henry Moseley (1887 – 1915) – English physicist – Arranged elements based on increasing atomic number Remember: atomic number = # of p+ in nucleus – Periodic table looked similar to Mendeleev’s design since as atomic number increases, so does the atomic mass SLIDESMANIA.COM Vertical Columns: BASICS Horizontal Rows: ❖ The vertical columns on the periodic table are ❖ The horizontal rows on the periodic table are GROUP 1 called groups called periods ❖ Elements in the same group have very similar ❖ Elements in the same period all have the same properties GROUP 2 number of electron orbitals ❖ Groups all have the same number of valence ❖ There are 7 periods on the periodic table electrons GROUPS 3-12 ❖ There are 18 groups on the table GROUP 17 GROUP 18 SLIDESMANIA.COM La & Ac Series 9 MAJOR 1 3 H Li CLASSES OF 11 Na ELEMENTS Metals, Metalloids, and 4 Be 19 12 K Mg Nonmetals. 37 Rb 19 Ca Helpful terms to know: BASICS Metals ❖ Conductivity: a material’s ability to conduct (transfer) electricity or heat GROUP 1 Metals are substance with high electrical ❖ Malleability: the ability of a metal to be conductivity, luster, and malleability, which readily hammered into thin sheets (gold and silver are loses electrons to form positive ions (cations). highly malleable) or the quality of something GROUP 2 that can be shaped into something else The majority of the periodic table is composed of without breaking. elements that are metals at room temperature.

Alkali metals readily lose electrons, making them GROUP 2 count among the most reactive elements on earth. - they react with water, they usually form GROUPS 3-12 alkalies which are nothing but strong bases that can easily neutralise acids. Alkali Metals Physical State Solid GROUP 17 Appearance Shiny/lustrous Conductivity Good conductor GROUP 18 Malleability Good SLIDESMANIA.COM Melting Point low La & Ac Series Boiling Point low 14 BASICS GROUP 1 ALKALI METALS ❖ Group 1 metals all have one valence electron GROUP 2 ❖ They like to give this electron away so their outer orbitals are full GROUPS 3-12 ❖ This group is the most reactive on the periodic table The video above demonstrates 3 alkali metals GROUP 17 reacting with water. The water in the beaker contains phenolphthalein which is an indicator. Phenolphthalein is clear in acidic conditions (pH < GROUP 18 7) and turns pink in basic conditions (pH > 7) SLIDESMANIA.COM La & Ac Series 15 BASICS ALKALI METALS Due to their high reactivity, alkali metals do not occur naturally in their pure form - they are often bonded to another element, forming a compound. GROUP 1 ALKALI METALS These metals are so reactive that, in their pure So what happened in those beakers? form, they must be stored in mineral oil to prevent GROUP 2 them from readily reacting with the air. 🧪 The alkali metals reacts violently with water GROUPS 3-12 🧪 This produced lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide (this compound is what caused the indicator to GROUP 17 turn pink) 🧪 Hydrogen gas was also produced along with a lot of heat GROUP 18 🧪 The exothermic conditions of this reaction caused the hydrogen gas to catch fire SLIDESMANIA.COM La & Ac Series 16 BASICS The metals in Group II of the periodic table are Alkaline Earth Metal called the alkaline earth metals. They are: - beryllium (Be) - magnesium (Mg) GROUP 1 Alkali metals The name “alkaline” comes from the - calcium (Ca) fact that compounds of these elements form basic - strontium (Sr) - barium (Ba) (pH greater than 7) or alkaline solutions when - radium (Ra) GROUP 2 dissolved in water. - alkaline earth metals are the second most GROUPS 3-12 reactive family of elements Alkaline Earth Metals Physical State solid GROUP 17 Appearance Shiny/lustrous Conductivity Good conductor GROUP 18 Malleability Good SLIDESMANIA.COM Melting Point low La & Ac Series Boiling Point low 17 BASICS GROUP 2 Fun Fact: The alkaline earths get their names from their GROUP 1 oxides, which were known to humankind long before ALKALINE EARTH METALS the pure elements were isolated. These oxides were Group 2 elements have two valence electrons and called beryllia, magnesia, lime, strontia, and baryta.

The name “transition metals” originates from two GROUPS 3-12 main ideas. The transition metals are also named so because of what is happening with their valence electrons. The elements in Groups 3 through 12 act as a bridge GROUP 17 between the highly metallic alkali and alkaline earth Most elements use the electrons from their metals on the left to the nonmetals on the right. outermost orbital to bond with other elements. These elements help transition between the metals GROUP 18 and nonmetals. Transition metals are able to use two of their outermost orbitals to bond with other elements. The transition metals have two orbitals that are not SLIDESMANIA.COM “happy” so both orbitals are able to bond with other La & Ac Series elements. 20 METALLOIDS The list of metalloids elements are: BASICS - Boron (B) - Silicon (Si) Metalloids can be defined as chemical elements - Germanium (Ge) - Arsenic (As) GROUP 1 whose physical and chemical properties fall in between the metal and non-metal categories - Antimony (Sb) - Tellurium (Te) - Astatine (At) Most periodic tables will have a dark line zig zagging GROUP 2 between the metals and nonmetals.

Several of the other properties of non-metals result from their atomic sizes. GROUP 1 Non- metals - are those which lack all the metallic - Non-metals have high electronegativities. This means attributes. They are good insulators of heat and that the atoms of non-metals have a strong tendency to attract more electrons than what they would normally electricity. They are mostly gases and sometimes have. GROUP 2 liquid. Some of then are even solid at room - In contrast, metals rather easily give up one or more temperature like Carbon, sulphur and phosphorus. electrons to non-metals, metal therefore easily form positively charged ions, and metals readily conduct electricity.

GROUPS 3-12 Halogens readily bond with alkali metals - they’re the perfect match: GROUP 17 ⚛ Alkali metals have one valence electron they want to give away ⚛ Halogens desperately want to gain one more GROUP 18 electron SLIDESMANIA.COM La & Ac Series 24 BASICS Halogens are never found in their pure form in Page 2 nature — they are too reactive. Instead, halogens in their “pure” form are diatomic GROUP 1 molecules: F2 Cl2 Br2 I2 A diatomic molecule is one that is made up of two GROUP 2 atoms. Most diatomic molecules are of the same element though a few combine different elements GROUPS 3-12 GROUP 17 GROUP 18 The above video demonstrates the reactivity of the halogens. SLIDESMANIA.COM La & Ac Series 25 - The Noble gases were not discovered until 1892 BASICS Noble Gas because the noble gases are highly unreactive, they remained hidden in the atmosphere. They make up Noble gases are located in Group 18 (VIIIa) of the only 1% percent of the atmosphere. GROUP 1 periodic table. Also known as the inert gases.
