CH 4: Chemical Foundations The Elements and the Periodic Table
The Elements • Information found on the periodic table • Symbol • Carbon • Oxygen • Cobalt
The Elements • Information found on the periodic table • State of matter • Color of symbol indicates state of matter • Black = solid • Blue = liquid • Red = gas • Outline = synthetically prepared • Density
Periodic Table • Periods – rows of elements on the periodic table • Groups – columns of elements on the periodic table • Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties • due to a similar arrangement of their outermost electrons (chapter 11)
Periodic Table • Re-labeling of your periodic table! • Group Names • I A = Alkali metals • II A = Alkaline earth metals • VII A = Halogens • VIII (A) = Noble gases • Inert • Metals, nonmetals, and metalloids • Transition metals too!
Metals • _____________ properties • Solids • Shiny (lustrous) • Malleable • Ductile • Good conductors of heat and electricity
Metals • Chemical property • Form ionic compounds • Lose electrons to form + charged ions
Nonmetals • Physical properties • Many are gases, some solids, one a liquid • Brittle if a solid • Dull if a solid • Poor conductors of heat and electricity • Therefore, they are good insulators.
Nonmetals • Chemical properties • Form ionic compounds • Gain electrons to form negatively charged ions • Form molecules when they react with nonmetals
Metalloids • Examples: • Physical properties • Solids • Can be formed into brittle shapes • Have a dull shine • Ability to conduct heat and electricity depends upon conditions • Semi-conductors
Metalloids • Chemical properties • Can form ions and/or molecules
Natural State of the Elements • Atomic elements • Examples: • Molecular elements • Examples:
Molecules • Molecule – 2 or more nonmetal atoms joined by chemical bonds • Molecules vs. compounds
Diatomic Elements • 7 elements are naturally found as diatomic molecules, not individual atoms • H2 • N2 • O2 • F2 • Cl2 • Br2 • I2
Allotropes of Carbon • Allotrope – different forms of a given element • Graphite • Diamond • “Buckyballs”
Graphite • Layers of ringed carbon structures • Each C is bonded to 3 other C
Diamond • A diamond is a gigantic molecule, each C atom is bonded to 4 other C atoms
Buckminsterfullerene • C60 • “Buckyball”
