1. Chapter 10
The Periodic Table

2. Section 1: Objectives
Describe how Mendeleev arranged elements in the first periodic table.
Explain how elements are arranged in the modern periodic table.
Compare metals, non-metals, and metalloids based on their properties and on their location in the periodic table.
Describe the difference between a period and a group.

3. How to Read the Periodic Table
Before we can sketch elements, we have to know how to read the periodic table.
Elements are divided into squares.
Each square tells you 5 things:
Element symbol
Atomic number
Element name
Atomic mass (mass number)
Physical state of element (M, NM, Mt)

4. Discovering a Pattern
Before the 1860s, scientists had never arranged the elements.
In 1869, Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass.
These repeating patterns are periodic, meaning that they happen at regular intervals.

5. Discovering a Pattern His pattern had gaps in it though.
He predicted that elements that had not been discovered would fill these gaps.
By 1886, all the gaps had been filled and his predictions were right.

6. Discovering a Pattern A few elements did not fit the pattern.
In 1914, British scientists Henry Moseley found the number of protons in an atom.
When the elements were arranged by atomic number, they fit the pattern.

7. Discovering a Pattern

8. Discovering a Pattern
Elements are classified as metals, nonmetals, or metalloids.
Valence electrons (number of electrons in outer shell) helps determine an element’s properties.
The zigzag line on the periodic table helps you determine this.

9. Discovering a Pattern Metals are found to the left of the zigzag line.
Atoms of most metals have few electrons in their outer shell.
Most metals are:
Shiny
Malleable
Good conductors of heat/electricity

10. Discovering a Pattern
Nonmetals are found to the right of the zigzag line.
Almost all nonmetals have a complete set of electrons in their outer shell.
Nonmetals are: (the opposite of metals)
Not shiny
Not ductile
Not malleable
Poor conductors of heat/electricity

11. Discovering a Pattern
Metalloids are elements that border the zigzag line.
Atoms of metalloids have about half the number of electrons in their outer shell.
Metalloids have some properties of metals and some of nonmetals.
Metalloids are also called semiconductors. (Si)

12. Discovering a Pattern
Each square on the periodic table includes an element’s name, chemical symbol, atomic number, and mass number.
For most elements, the chemical symbol has one or 2 letters.
Why would some elements have
3 letters?

13. Discovering a Pattern
Each horizontal row of elements is called a period.
The chemical and physical properties of elements in a row follow a repeating pattern.
Each vertical column of elements is called a group.
Elements in the same group often have similar chemical and physical properties.

14. Discovering a Pattern
Elements in a group have the same number of valence electrons.
Atoms can give, take, or share electrons with other atoms.
An atom’s goal is to complete
the outer energy level.

18. Section 2: Objectives
Explain why elements in a group often have similar properties.
Describe the properties of the elements in the groups of the periodic table.

19. Group 1: Alkali Metals Contain 1 valence electron.
Share physical and chemical properties.
Most reactive metals.
Can easily give away one outer level electron.
Alkali metals are so reactive, in nature they are only found combined with other elements.
Examples:
(Li)
(K)

20. Group 2: Alkaline-Earth Metals
Contain 2 valence electrons.
Less reactive than alkali metals.
It uses more energy for elements to give 2 outer shell electrons than to give one.
Examples:
(Be)
(Mg)

21. Groups 3-12: Transition Metals
Either 1 or 2 valence electrons.
Do not give away electrons as easily as elements in Groups 1 and 2.
Less reactive than Groups 1 and 2.
Share all properties of metals, but other properties vary widely.
Some transition metals appear at the bottom of the periodic table:
Lanthanides
Actinides

22. Electron Cloud Rules
For today, there are 2 rules to know before adding electrons to a sketch:
Electron number will equal proton number.
The first level can hold only 2 electrons.

23. Identifying and Sketching Atoms
Directions: Draw each element square along with all information for that element.
Under the square write the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons.

24. Identifying and Sketching Atoms
1) Hydrogen (1 V.E.)
2) Beryllium (2 V.E.)
3) Boron (3 V.E.)
4) Nitrogen (5 V.E.)
5) Oxygen (6 V.E.)
6) Fluorine ( 7 V.E.)
7) Helium (2 V.E.)

25. Writing Prompt: Listening to Directions
Listening to directions is an important part of completing any assignment/lab activity. Explain why listening to directions is essential in successfully completing an activity. Also in your response, describe some safety concerns when students do not follow directions. What should you do if you do not understand the directions for an activity? You may use examples in your response to help explain your viewpoint. Your response should be no less than one paragraph.

26. Lanthanides Shiny Reactive Metals
Some of these elements are used to make steel.

27. Actinides Radioactive (unstable)
The atoms of a radioactive element can change into atoms of another element.
Elements after Plutonium (94) on the periodic table are only man-made in laboratories.

28. Group 13: Boron Group Contain 3 valence electrons.

30. Group 15: Nitrogen Group Contains 5 valence electrons.

Very reactive.
Examples:
(Br)
(F)

33. Group 18: Noble Gases Contain 8 valence electrons. (except helium)
Colorless, odorless gases at room temperature.
Unreactive because their outer shell is full. (do not need to gain or lose electrons)
Examples:
(Ne)
(Ar)
(Rn)

34. Hydrogen Contains 1 valence electron. Reactive.
Colorless, odorless gas at room temperature.
Low density.
Explosive reactions with oxygen.
The properties of hydrogen do not match the properties of any single group, so it is set apart from other elements on the periodic table.
