UNIT 1 The Periodic Table
The Periodic Table of the Elements • Organizes all of the elements in a meaningful way • Dmitri Mendeleev (1830-1907) organized the then known elements according to their mass, chemical properties, and physical properties.
Periodic Table Main group Main group Transition metals Inner transition metals 1st row – lanthanides 2nd row - actinides
Periodic Table Atomic number (Z) 26 Fe 55.845 Element symbol Atomic mass
The Periodic Table • The rows are called periods.
The Periodic Table The columns are called groups. • Several of the groups have names.
Group 18 - Noble Gases
The Periodic Table • Two broad classifications • Metals • Nonmetals • and a boundary between them • metalloids (semimetals)
Periodic Table boundary between metals (left) and nonmetals (right)
Properties of Metals • metallic shine • conduct electricity • conduct heat • malleable • ductile • solids at room temperature (except for mercury) • compounds are mostly ionic
Properties of Nonmetals • do not conduct electricity well • do not conduct heat well • not malleable • not ductile • solids and gases at room temperature (and one liquid) • compounds between nonmetals are mostly molecular
Properties of Metalloids • conduct some electricity • like nonmetals otherwise • Si, Ge, and As can be found in semiconductors
Main group Main group Transition metals Lanthanide series Actinide series
