The Search for a Periodic Table
Early scientists needed a system that would show similarities and differences between individual and groups of elements.
J.W. Döbereiner classified some elements that had similar chemical properties into triads, organizing them according to their atomic mass.

Dmitri Mendeleev’s research revealed that the chemical and physical properties of the elements repeated in an orderly way when he organized the elements according to increasing atomic mass.
Density, melting point, and boiling point all increase as atomic mass increases.

The Modern Periodic Table
Each block of the modern periodic table shows the element’s name, symbol, atomic number, and atomic mass.
At present, elements up to atomic number 118 have been discovered or synthesized.
Atomic number increases by one as you move from element to element across a row.

The Modern Periodic Table (cont.)
With the exception of the first row, each row begins with a metal and ends with a noble gas.
The idea that the physical and chemical properties of the elements repeat in a regular pattern when they are arranged in order of increasing atomic number is known as the periodic law.

Periods and Groups
A period is a horizontal row on the periodic table.
A group, or family, consists of elements in a vertical column of the periodic table.

24. Using the Periodic Table
SECTION2
Using the Periodic Table
Periods and Groups (Cont.)
Group 18 elements, which have the maximum number of eight valence electrons and are generally unreactive, are known as the noble gases.
The period number of an element is the same as the number of its outermost energy level.

25. Using the Periodic Table
SECTION2
Using the Periodic Table
Periods and Groups (Cont.)
The number of valence electrons changes from one to eight as you move from left to right across a period; when you get to group 18, the pattern repeats.

26. Using the Periodic Table
SECTION2
Using the Periodic Table
Periods and Groups (Cont.)
Because elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, they have similar properties.

Physical States and Classes of the Elements
Most elements are solid at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure.
Synthetic elements are not found in nature but are produced artificially in particle accelerators.

29. Using the Periodic Table
SECTION2
Using the Periodic Table
Physical States and Classes of the Elements (Cont.)
Elements are classified as metals, metalloids, or nonmetals on the basis of their physical and chemical properties.

Physical States and Classes of the Elements (Cont.)
Metals are elements that have luster, conduct heat and electricity, and usually bend without breaking.
The majority of elements are metals.
Most metals are solid at room temperature and have extremely high melting points.
With the exception of tin, lead, and bismuth, metals have one, two, or three valence electrons.

SECTION2
Using the Periodic Table
Physical States and Classes of the Elements (Cont.)
The metals in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called the transition elements.
The unpredictable behavior and properties of the transition metals is due to the more complicated atomic structure of these elements.

32. Using the Periodic Table
SECTION2
Using the Periodic Table
Physical States and Classes of the Elements (Cont.)
The transition elements are divided into transition metals and inner transition metals.
The two sets of inner transition metals are called the lanthanide series and actinide series and are located at the bottom of the periodic table.

Physical States and Classes of the Elements (Cont.)
Metalloids have physical and chemical properties of both metals and nonmetals, such as silicon and germanium.
Some metalloids are semiconductors, or an element that does not conduct electricity as well as a metal but does conduct slightly better than a nonmetal.

35. Using the Periodic Table

Using the Periodic Table
Physical States and Classes of the Elements (Cont.)
When undergoing chemical reactions, metals tend to lose valence electrons, whereas nonmetals tend to share electrons or gain electrons from other atoms.

36. Using the Periodic Table
SECTION2

Semiconductors and Their Uses
Most metals conduct an electric current because their valence electrons are not held tightly by the positive nucleus and are free to move.

Key Concepts
Atomic structure and the number of valence electrons can be related to an element’s position on the periodic table.
Elements are classified as metals, nonmetals, or metalloids.
The number of valence electrons and how tightly they are held determine the chemical properties of an element.
The conductivity of semiconductors can be increased by adding small amounts of other elements.
