ALKALI METALS Group 1 Hydrogen is not a member, it is a non-metal 1 electron in the outer shell Soft and silvery metals Very reactive, esp. with water Conduct electricity http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=6ZY6d6jrq-0 Episode 402
ALKALINE EARTH METALS Group 2 2 electrons in the outer shell White and malleable Reactive, but less than Alkali metals Conduct electricity http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2ZPrg9IVEo&feature=player_embedded Episode 402
TRANSITION METALS Groups 3-12 Good conductors of heat and electricity. Some are used for jewelry. The transition metals are able to put up to 32 electrons in their second to last shell. Can bond with many elements to form a variety of compounds. Episode 402
BORON FAMILY Group 13 3 electrons in the outer shell Most are metals Boron is a metalloid Episode 402
CARBON FAMILY Group 14 4 electrons in the outer shell Contains metals, metalloids, and a non-metal Carbon (C) Episode 402
NITROGEN FAMILY Group 15 5 electrons in the outer shell Can share electrons to form compounds Contains metals, metalloids, and non-metals Episode 402
OXYGEN FAMILY Group 16 6 electrons in the outer shell Contains metalloids, and non-metals Reactive Episode 402
Halogens Group 17 7 electrons in the outer shell All are non-metals Very reactive are often bonded with elements from Group 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2ogMUDBaf4&feature=player_embedded Episode 402
Noble Gases Group 18 Exist as gases Non-metals 8 electrons in the outer shell = Full Helium (He) has only 2 electrons in the outer shell = Full Not reactive with other elements Episode 402
Rare Earth Metals Lanthanides Actinides Some are Radioactive The rare earths are silver, silvery-white, or gray metals. Conduct electricity Lanthanides Actinides Episode 402
