1. Family Names & Navigating the Periodic Table

2. Part 1 Metals, Nonmetals & Metalloids

3.  Add this stair- step line to separate the metals from the non-metals

4.  Everything above and to the right is a nonmetal

5. Nonmetals  Tend to gain electrons  Form negative ions (-)  Do not conduct electricity  Are brittle (unmalleable)

6.  Everything below and to the left is a metal

7. Metals  Tend to lose electrons  Form positive ions (+)  Are malleable and ductile  Conduct electricity

8. Metalloids  Mark these with an *:  B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po, At  These sometimes act like a metal, sometimes like a nonmetal.

9. Part II Families in the Periodic table

10. Elements are arranged in Families: Columns (up and down)  Families have similar properties  Usually have the same number of valence electrons  React similarly

11. Alkali Metals  The first column  One valence electron  Explosively reactive  Na, K, Rb, Cs, Fr  Form bases (alkaline) solutions

12. Alkaline Earth Metals  Are the second column  Have two valence electrons  Stable in air, but  React quickly with a little energy  Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra  Make up many minerals

13. Transition Metals are everything in Columns 3 - 12  Tend to be what we think of when we think metals  Cr – Chrome, Au – Gold, Fe – Iron, Cu – Copper  Have no rule for valence electrons

14. Noble Gases  are the very last column  Have eight valence electrons except Helium (He) has 2  Are very stable  Do not react with anything (usually)

15. Halogens  Column 17 next to noble gases  Have seven valence electrons  Extremely reactive  F, Cl, Br, I, At  Often used to kill bacteria  (think choline bleach, bromine in spas or pools)

16. Representative Elements  Columns 13 – 16  Start with nonmetals at the top and metals at the bottom  Have a metalloid in the middle

17.  13:Boron Family, 3 valence electrons  14: Carbon Family, 4 valence electrons  15:Nitrogen Family, 5 valence electrons  16: Oxygen Family, 6 valence electrons

18.  The Two rows separated at the bottom are the Rare Earth Metals and are referred to by the first element in their row

19. The First Row are the Lanthanides, After La, Lanthanum The Second Row are the Actinides, after Ac, Actinium

20. Worksheet  Good job guys! Worksheet is not homework, we’ll continue with this Monday!
