Describe the modern periodic table. Repeating patterns are referred to as periodic. Explain how the periodic law can be used to predict the physical and chemical properties of elements.

Section 1 History of the Periodic Section 1 History of the Periodic Chapter 5 Table Chapter 5 Table Mendeleev and Chemical Periodicity, Properties of Some Elements Predicted By Mendeleev continued After Mendeleev placed all the known elements in his periodic table, several empty spaces were left. In 1871 Mendeleev predicted the existence and properties of elements that would fill three of the spaces. By 1886, all three of these elements had been discovered.

Section 1 History of the Periodic Section 1 History of the Periodic Chapter 5 Table Chapter 5 Table Moseley and the Periodic Law Periodicity of Atomic Numbers Henry Moseley discovered that the elements fit into patterns better when they were arranged according to atomic number, rather than atomic weight. The Periodic Law states that the physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers. In other words properties of elements will repeat at regular intervals based on the elements atomic numbers. Chapter menu Resources Chapter menu Resources Copyright © by Holt, Rinehart and Winston.

Section 2 Electron Configuration Section 2 Electron Configuration Chapter 5 and the Periodic Table Chapter 5 and the Periodic Table Relationship Between Periodicity and Periods and Blocks of the Periodic Table, Electron Configurations continued The elements of Group 1 of the periodic table are known as the alkali metals. lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium In their pure state, all of the alkali metals have a silvery appearance and are soft enough to cut with a knife. The elements of Group 2 of the periodic table are called the alkaline-earth metals. beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium Group 2 metals are less reactive than the alkali metals, but are still too reactive to be found in nature in pure form.

Hydrogen is a unique element. Like the Group 2 elements, helium has an ns2 group configuration. Yet it is part of Group 18.

Section 2 Electron Configuration Section 2 Electron Configuration Chapter 5 and the Periodic Table Chapter 5 and the Periodic Table Periods and Blocks of the Periodic Table, Periods and Blocks of the Periodic Table, continued continued The elements of Group 17 are known as the halogens. The p-block elements consist of all the elements of fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine Groups 13–18 except helium. The halogens are the most reactive nonmetals. The p-block elements together with the s-block elements are called the main-group elements. They react vigorously with most metals to form examples of the type of compound known as salts. The properties of elements of the p block vary greatly. At its right-hand end, the p block includes all of the The metalloids, or semiconducting elements, are nonmetals except hydrogen and helium. located between nonmetals and metals in the p block. All six of the metalloids are also in the p block. The metals of the p block are generally harder and denser than the s-block alkaline-earth metals, but At the left-hand side and bottom of the block, there are eight softer and less dense than the d-block metals. p-block metals.

Section 2 Electron Configuration Section 2 Electron Configuration Chapter 5 and the Periodic Table Chapter 5 and the Periodic Table Periods and Blocks of the Periodic Table, continued In the periodic table, the f-block elements are wedged between Groups 3 and 4 in the sixth and seventh periods. Their position reflects the fact that they involve the filling of the 4f sublevel. The first row of the f block, the lanthanides, are shiny metals similar in reactivity to the Group 2 alkaline metals. The second row of the f block, the actinides, are between actinium and rutherfordium. The actinides are all radioactive.

Section 3 Electron Configuration Section 3 Electron Configuration Chapter 5 and Periodic Properties Chapter 5 and Periodic Properties Atomic Radii, continued Periodic Atoms tend to be smaller the farther to the right they Trends of Radii are found across a period. The trend to smaller atoms across a period is caused by the increasing positive charge of the nucleus, which attracts electrons toward the nucleus. Atoms tend to be larger the farther down in a group they are found. The trend to larger atoms down a group is caused by the increasing size of the electron cloud around an atom as the number electron sublevels increases.

Element A is most likely to be an s-block metal because ionization energies increase across the periods. Electron affinity generally increases across periods. Element B has a very high ionization energy which means that atoms of B have difficulty losing electrons. Increasing nuclear charge along the same sublevel attracts electrons more strongly Element B would most likely lie at the end of a period in the p block. Electron affinity generally decreases down groups. Element A is more likely to form a positive ion because it has The larger an atom’s electron cloud is, the farther a much lower ionization energy than element B does. away its outer electrons are from its nucleus.

Explain your answer in terms of periodic trends. Bromine has the highest atomic number and is farthest to the right in the period.
