WoC Ch 3.8 Intro to the Periodic Table
Objective: Learn about various features of the periodic table Objective: Learn some of the properties of metals, non-metals, and metalloids
2
Periodic Table 6 C 12.001 Elements are listed
A chart that shows all of the known elements and gives a lot of information about each Atomic number Chemical symbol Mass Number On the periodic table in order of increasing atomic number
3
More arrangement… Russian scientist Arranged by families Chlorine and Fluorine behave similarly, as do potassium and sodium What are the atomic numbers of Cl, F, K, and Na Elements are also arranged in specific horizontal rows and vertical columns Dmitri Mendeleev-Father of the Periodic Table Mendeleev arranged the P.T. this way because of similarities in the chemical properties of various “families” of elements The periodic table refers to the fact that as we increase the numbers, every so often an element occurs with properties similar to those of a lower number element ____,____,____,____
4
Vertical columns are called Groups are often referred to by See Discovery School Circle Periodic Table Many groups have special names Group 1 Group 2 Group 7 (17) Group 8 (18) Large collection spanning many vertical columns Families and/or Groups The number over the column For simplicity we delete all of the “A”s Alkali Metals Alkaline Earth Metals Halogens Noble gases Transition metals
5
Relatively small number of elements in the upper right hand corner of the periodic table Many non-metals are One is liquid Several non-metals are Elements that lie close to the stair-step line Non-Metals Lack characteristics of metals Have more variation in their properties Gaseous Bromine (Br) Solids Metalloids or Semi-metals Show a mixture of metallic and non-metallic properties
6
Most elements are metals
Physical properties Efficient conduction of heat and electricity Malleable Ductile A lustrous (shiny) appearance Most metals are solid at room temperature
7
Knowledge of the Periodic Table…
Is extremely useful in the study of chemistry! Describe most of the elements on the periodic table. List one element that is liquid at room temperature. What information is usually found in each individual square of the periodic table?
8
WoC Chapter 3.9 Natural States of the Elements
Objective 1: Learn the natures of the common elements
9
Atoms from different elements are chemically bonded
Gold, Silver, Platinum Noble Gases: He, Ne, Kr, Xe, Rn Pure element, existing as single atom: Argon Diatomic molecules: N2 & O2 Molecules made of 2 atoms Define Compound Noble Metals(Relatively unreactive) Group 8 Air sample yields Diatomic molecules
10
7 Diatomic Molecules to know Most elements in Group 7 and Group are liquids in elemental form Non-metallic structures are more varied Ex: H,N,O,F,Cl,Br,I are all diatomic molecules Are gases at room temperature (25°C) Hg (Mercury) and Br (Bromine) Allotropes-elements whose atoms make different forms Carbon: Diamond, graphite, buckminster fullerene
11
WoC Chapter 3.10 Ions Objective 1: Describe the formation of ions form their parent atoms and learn to name them. Objective 2: Predict which ion a given element forms by using the periodic table.
12
Q: If an atom has a certain number of protons in the nucleus and an equal number of electrons in its valence shell, what can be said about the overall charge of the atom? A: The fact that the number of protons and electrons is equal results in an exact balance of positive and negative charges. Thus, an atom is neutral. It has zero net charge!!
13
A charged entity negative ion forms positive ion forms 11 protons 11 electrons 11+ 10- Na Na+ + e- Positive ion Negative ion Magnesium forms a 2+ cation Aluminum forms a 3+ cation Ion Take a neutral atom Add an electron Remove an electron Ex: Sodium atom Z=11 One electron is lost = 1+ Cation Anion Cations Mg Mg2+ + 2e- Al Al3+ + 3e-
14
Using the name of the parent atom Na+ Sodium ion Mg2+ Magnesium
Cations are named Sodium Na Magnesium Mg Anion Anions Chlorine Cl + e- Fluorine F + e- Bromine Br + e- Iodine I + e- Using the name of the parent atom Na Sodium ion Mg2+ Magnesium Negatively charged ion Gain electrons Cl- F- Br- I-
15
Anions are named Chlorine becomes Some atoms gain 2 electrons ex: Oxygen O + 2e- Sulfur S + 2e- Ions are always formed By taking the root name of the atom and changing the ending to –ide Chloride O2- oxide ion S2- sulfide ion By removing electrons from an atom or adding electrons to an atom
16
CHANGING THE # OF PROTONS!!!
IONS ARE NEVER FORMED BY Isolated atoms do not form ions on their own When metals and nonmetals react Metals and nonmetals tend to form compounds that CHANGING THE # OF PROTONS!!! Most ions are formed when metallic elements combine with nonmetallic elements Metal atoms tend to lose one or more electrons, which are in turn gained by atoms of the nonmetal Contain metal cations and nonmetal anions
17
WoC Chapter 3.11 Compounds That Contain Ions
Objective 1: To describe how ions combine to form neutral compounds
18
Chemists have reason to believe that many chemical compounds contain ions Consider common table salt (NaCl) As a solid When melted Pure water but when salt is dissolved in water 800°C to melt 1500 °C to boil Will not conduct electricity Is a very good conductor The solution readily conducts electricity
19
These properties are best explained by picturing NaCl as containing Na+ ions and Cl- ions
20
Sodium chloride breaking apart (ionizing) in solution
21
Electric current can travel along a metal wire because The moving electrons In ionic substances Thus, substances that contain ions can conduct an Electrons are free to move through the wire Carry the current the ions carry the current Electric current only if the ions can move.
22
Electron movement in wire and ionic substances
23
The body uses ions in the Sodium/Potassium Pump in Cell membranes
24
In solid NaCl, ions are tightly held and cannot move
In solid NaCl, ions are tightly held and cannot move. However, As a result, an electric current can travel through The same reasoning applies to NaCl dissolved in water When solid is melted and becomes liquid, the structure is disrupted and the ions can move The melted salt! When the solids dissolve, the ions are dispersed in the water and can move!
25
We recognize substances that contain ions Many substances contain ions These substances are called … A chemical compound must have By their characteristic properties. Very high melting point Conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in water Whenever a compound forms between a metal and a nonmetal, it can be expected to contain ions. IONIC COMPOUNDS A net charge of zero!
26
If a compound contains ions
There must be both positive (cations) ions and negative (anions) ions. The number of cations and anions must be such that the net charge is zero
27
Na+ + Cl- NaCl
28
Na+ + Cl- NaCl
29
Mg2+ + O MgO
30
More Ionic Bonding
31
Remember this Periodic Table trend?
32
When bonding… You must have ions: anions and cations
When they combine, the resulting compound will have no net charge This means that the number of atoms of each element must be accounted for so that the number of anions and cations in the compound is the same You notate the number of atoms needed by using subscripts. Ex: Na2O, MgCl2
