1 Unit 3 – Chemical Periodicity

2 Elements & Atoms Element-a pure substance that has one kind of atom  The periodic table lists all the different elements that are either found in nature or prepared in the laboratory synthetically  Atom-the smallest particle of matter  Example of an element is hydrogen. It contains only hydrogen atoms.

3  PERIODIC TABLE: an arrangement of elements organized with respect to similar traits shared by different elements Definition

4 Development of the PT

5 "...if all the elements be arranged in order of their atomic weights a periodic repetition of properties is obtained.” Dmitri Mendeleev (1869)- First published periodic table Development of the Periodic Table

6  Arranged in rows (periods) of increasing mass Development of the Periodic Table MASS

7  Arranged in columns (groups or families) by similarities in physical and chemical properties Development of the Periodic Table

8  Most important feature: Holes were left in the table to allow for the discovery of new elements Development of the Periodic Table

9  Mendeleev predicted the discovery of germanium (which he called eka-silicon) as an element with an atomic weight between that of zinc and arsenic, but with chemical properties similar to those of silicon. Development of the Periodic Table

10 Henry Moseley (1913) - Modified into the modern PT  Arranged in rows (periods) of increasing Atomic Number  Arranged in columns (groups or families) by similarities of physical and chemical properties Development of the Periodic Table

11  The Periodic Law: Chemical and physical properties of elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers; properties of the elements occur at repeated intervals called periods. Development of the Periodic Table

12 Organization of the PT

13  The PT lists each element in order of their atomic number  Elements are classified into three major categories based upon their properties: metals, nonmetals, and metalloids Organizing the Periodic Table

14 Metals

15 METALS: located on the left side of the PT (exception of H, which is a nonmetal)  Most elements are metals (~80%)  Good conductors of heat and electricity  Lustrous (shiny)  Solids at room temperature (except Hg)  Ductile and malleable Metals

16 Nonmetals

17 NONMETALS: located on the right side of the PT  Greater variation in physical properties among nonmetals than metals.  Some are solids, bromine is a liquid, but most are gases at room temperature  Do not conduct electricity  Good insulators  Dull and Brittle Nonmetals

18 Metalloids

19 METALLOIDS: indicated by the BOLD “staircase” B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, At  Properties of both metals and nonmetals  Semiconductors Metalloids

20 GROUPS – vertical columns containing elements with similar properties.  There are 18 groups  Groups are also called families due to their similar properties Organizing the PT

21  The groups are numbered 1-18 with Group 1 being on the far left and Group 18 being on the far right of the periodic table. Organizing the PT 1 18

22 Groups may also be numbered using Roman Numerals Groups may also be numbered using Roman Numerals  “A elements” referring to the Main Group or Representative Elements  “B elements” referring to the referring to the Transition Metals Transition Metals Organizing the PT

23 PERIODS – horizontal rows on the periodic table; each period represents an exact grouping of elements  There are 7 periods  They are simply numbered 1-7 Organizing the PT
