2. Families on the Periodic Table
Elements on the periodic table can be grouped into families bases on their chemical properties.
Each family has a specific name to differentiate it from the other families in the periodic table.
Elements in each family react differently with
other elements.

3. ALKALI METALS Group 1 Hydrogen is not a member, it is a non-metal
All are metals and solid at room temp
1 Valence Electron
Soft and silvery, shiny
Very reactive, esp. with water
Conduct electricity
Image:

4. ALKALINE EARTH METALS Group 2 Metals Be,Mg,Ca,Sr,Ba,Ra
Solids at room temp
2 electrons in the outer shell
White, silvery, and malleable
Reactive, but less than Alkali metals
Conduct electricity

5. TRANSITION METALS Metals Almost all are solids at room temp (Hg)
Good conductors of heat and electricity.
1 or 2 Valence Electrons
Less Reactive than Alkali and Alkaline Earth
Can bond with many elements in a variety of shapes.

6. BORON FAMILY Group 3 3 (valence)electrons in the outer shell
Most are metals
Boron is a metalloid all other elements are metal.
Reactive
Solid at room temp

7. CARBON FAMILY Group 4 4 (valence) electrons in the outer shell
Contains 3 metals (Fl, Pb, Sn), 2 metalloids(Si, Ge), and 1 non-metal Carbon (C)
Reactivity varies
Solids at room temp

8. NITROGEN FAMILY Group 5 5 electrons in the outer shell
Can share electrons to form compounds
Contains 2 metals(Bi,Sb) , 2 metalloids(As,’Pb), and 2 non- metals(P,N)
Reactivity Varies
Nitrogen is the only gas at room temp, rest are solids

9. OXYGEN FAMILY Group 6 6 electrons in the outer shell
Contains 2 metals(Po,Lv), 1 metalloid(Te), and 3 non-metals(O, S, Se)
Reactive
Oxygen is a gas, the rest are solids at room temp

10. Halogens Group 7 7 electrons in the outer shell
Non-metals, Uus is unknown
Very reactive - are often bonded with Group 1 Alkali Metals
Has 2 gases(F, Cl), 1 liquid (Br), and 2 solids

11. Noble Gases Group 8 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

12. Rare Earth Metals Some are Radioactive
The rare earths are silver, silvery- white, or gray metals.
Conduct electricity

15. Today in I.S.… Fact of the Day To Do Today: Check for notebook
Week #1 Quarter 2 (10/18)
I.S. Learning Goal:
I can describe the features and components of the atom.
I can apply models to features of an atom
Fact of the Day
Carbon is most commonly obtained in coal deposits. Diamonds are found in volcanic rock, called kimberlite, located in South Africa, Arkansas, and elsewhere. Name is Latin for charcoal.
Warm Up Question: Why is carbon important in the study of organic chemistry?
To Do Today:
Check for notebook
Discuss Lewis Dot structure and Bohr Model of atomic diagrams
Homework: notebook cover Monday Notebook set up Monday
Cheat song:

16. Periods Each row is called a “period”
The elements in each period have the same number of shells
1st Period = 1 Shell
2nd Period = 2 Shells
3rd Period = 3 Shells
4th Period = 4 Shells
Periodic table of elements video

17. Groups Group 8 = 8 electrons Group 1 = 1 electron
Except for He, it has 2 electrons
Group 1 = 1 electron
Group 2 = 2 electrons
Each column is called a “group”
Each element in a group has the same number of electrons in their outer orbital, also known as “shells”.
The electrons in the outer shell are called “valence electrons”

18. Transition Metals
Transition Metals have slightly different rules for shells and valence electrons.

20. Lewis Structures Put onto back of “Find that Element!” handout
Find your element on the periodic table.
Determine the number of valence electrons.
This is how many electrons you will draw. 20

21. Lewis Structures Find out which group (column) your element is in.
This will tell you the number of valence electrons your element has.
You will only draw the valence electrons. 21

22. Groups - Review
Except for He, it has 2 electrons
Each column is called a “group”
Each element in a group has the same number of electrons in their outer orbital, also known as “shells”.
The electrons in the outer shell are called “valence electrons” 22

23. Order of How to Draw Lewis Dot Structures

24. Lewis Structures Write the element symbol.
Carbon is in the 4th group, so it has 4 valence electrons.
Starting at the right, draw 4 electrons, or dots, counter-clockwise around the element symbol. 24

25. Lewis Structures Check your work.
Using your periodic table, check that Carbon is in the 4th group.
You should have 4 total electrons, or dots, drawn in for Carbon. 25
