The Periodic Table and Periodic Law

The Periodic Table and Periodic Law

• Chapter 6

2
Section 6.1 Development of the Modern Periodic
Table

• Late 1790s- Lavoisier compiled a list of 23
  elements known at the time
• By 1870- 70 known elements
• John Newlands
• Arranged elements by increasing atomic mass
• Noticed properties repeated every eighth element
  (periodic)
• Law of Octaves

3
Dmitri Mendeleev

• Russian
• 1st periodic table
• Organized elements by properties
• Arranged elements by atomic mass
• Predicted existence of several unknown elements
• Element 101 Mendeleevium (Md)

5
Henry Moseley

• 1913-performs experiments to determine the atomic
  number of the known elements
• Afterwards arranges the elements in the periodic
  table listing them by increasing atomic number
  instead of by mass

6
Periodic Law

• When the elements are arranged in order of
  increasing atomic number, there is a periodic
  repetition of their physical and chemical
  properties

7
The Modern Periodic Table

• Groups- aka families (vertical columns)
• Each group is numbered 1-8 followed by the letter
  A or B
• Representative Elements- designated with an A
  (1A-8A)
• Transition Elements- designated with a B (3B-12B)
• 18 total groups
• elements of any one group have similar physical
  and chemical properties

8

• Periods- horizontal rows
• 7 total periods
• element properties change as you go across each
  row
• the pattern of properties repeats from one period
  to the next

9
Classifying the Elements

• Three main classifications for the elements
• Metals
• Nonmetals
• Metalloids

10
Metals

• Physical Properties
• Luster (shininess)
• Good conductors of heat and electricity
• High density (heavy for their size)
• High melting point
• Ductile (most metals can be drawn out into thin
  wires)
• Malleable (most metals can be hammered into thin
  sheets)
• Chemical Properties
• Easily lose valence electrons
• Corrode easily
• Alkali Metals- group 1A elements (except
  hydrogen)
• Alkaline Earth Metals- group 2A elements

11
Metals Cont.

• Transition Metals
• Group B elements
• Inner Transition Metals
• Lanthanide- used as phosphors (substances that
  emit light when struck by electrons)
• Actinide

12
Nonmetals

• Physical Properties
• No luster (dull appearance)
• Poor conductor of heat and electricity
• Brittle (breaks easily) or gaseous
• Not ductile
• Not malleable
• Low density
• Low melting point
• Bromine is the only nonmetal liquid at room
  temperature
• Chemical Properties
•  Tend to gain valence electrons

13
Nonmetals Cont

• Halogens
• Group 7A
• Extremely Reactive
• Noble Gases
• Group 8A
• Extremely Unreactive

14
Metalloids

• Bordering the stair-step line
• Physical Properties
• Solids
• Can be shiny or dull
• Ductile
• Malleable
• Conduct heat and electricity better than
  nonmetals but not as well as metals

• Elements in the same group on the periodic table
  have similar chemical properties because they
  have the same valence electron configuration

18

• Octet Rule- atoms tend to gain, lose or share
  electrons in order to acquire a full set of eight
  valence electrons
• Hydrogen and Helium are exceptions ( 2 V.E.)
• Determines the types of ions likely to form
• Elements on the right side tend to gain electrons
• Elements on the left side tend to lose electrons
