Chapter 6 – Periodic Table

1. Chapter 6 – Periodic Table

2. Development of the Periodic TableIn 1829 Li   Na  K         Cl   Br   I7     23     39           35    80   127 Ca   SrBa     (40 + 137) ÷ 2 = 8840     88     137 Dobereiner’sLaw of Triads: The middle element in the triad (group of 3 elements) had atomic weight that was the average of the other two members

3. In 1863 Law of Octaves John Newlands’ Law of Octaves: When elements are arranged in increasing atomic mass the 1st & 8th elements exhibit similar behavior. This behavior repeats in a periodic fashion Little attention was paid to Newlands work because he linked his finding to music.

4. Dmitri Mendeleev & LotharMeyer In 1869 & 1871 • Mendeleev's periodic table was arranged with increasing atomic weight and attention to chemical properties. • Periodic Table contained columns (groups) & rows (periods). • Mendeleev left gaps in the table. • He predicted the discovery of new elements that would fill these gaps.  • eka-aluminum, eka-boron, and eka-silicon • Gallium, Scandium and Germanium • Later in 1869 German Chemist Lothar Meyer independently published a nearly identical table • In 1906, Mendeleev came within one vote of receiving the Nobel Prize in chemistry “I began to look about and write down the elements with their atomic weights and typical properties, analogous elements and like atomic weights on separate cards, and this soon convinced me that the properties of elements are in periodic dependence upon their atomic weights.”--Mendeleev, Principles of Chemistry, 1905, Vol. II

5. In 1914 Moseley's Periodic Law • It starts with Rutherford's landmark Gold Foil Experiment discovering the proton in 1911 • Henry Moseley was able to derive the relationship between x-ray frequency and number of protons. • Moseley Periodic Law arranges the elements according to increasing atomic numbers and not atomic masses. • some of the inconsistencies associated with Mendeleev's table were eliminated. • The modern periodic table is based on Moseley's Periodic Law (atomic numbers). • At age 28, Moseley was killed in action during World War I

6. In 1940 The last major change • Glenn Seaborg discovered the Inner transition metals (transuranium elements) 94 to 102. • This reconfigured the periodic table by placing the lanthanide/actinide series at the bottom of the table. • In 1951 Seaborg was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry and element 106 was later named Seaborgium (Sg) in his honor.

8. Metals • Most elements are metals. • Found to the LEFT of the Zigzag Line • Physical Properties of Metals: • Luster (shininess) • Good conductors of heat and electricity • High density (heavy for their size) • High melting point • Ductile (drawn out into thin wires) • Malleable (hammered into thin sheets) • Chemical Properties of Metals: • Easily lose electrons (form positive ions-CATIONS) • Corrode easily

9. Nonmetals Nonmetals are found to the RIGHT of the Zigzag Line Characteristics are opposite those of metals. Physical Properties of Nonmetals: • Poor conductor of heat and electricity • No luster (dull appearance) • Brittle (breaks easily) • Not ductile • Not malleable • Low density • Low melting point Chemical Properties of Nonmetals: Tend to gain electrons  (form negative ions-ANIONS) 

10. Metalloids • Elements on both sides of the Zigzag Line • have properties of both metals and nonmetals. • Physical Properties of Metalloids: • Solids • Can be shiny or dull • Ductile • Malleable • Conduct heat and electricity better than nonmetals but not as well as metals

11. Electron Shielding- the reduction of the attractive force of the nucleus for the outer electrons • caused by electrons in energy levels between the nucleus and the outer electrons • Effective Nuclear charge- the charge felt by the valence electrons after taking into account shielding.

12. Atomic Radius Since a cloud’s edge is difficult to define, scientists use define covalent radius, or half the distance between the nuclei of 2 bonded atoms. Atomic radii are usually measured in picometers (pm) or angstroms (Å). An angstrom is 1 x 10-10 m.

13. Atomic Radius Trend • DOWN A GROUP = Atoms get larger • Higher energy levels have larger orbitals • Electron Shielding - core e- block the attraction between the nucleus and the valence e- • ACROSS A PERIOD Left to Right = Atoms get smaller • Increased nuclear charge without additional shielding pulls e- in tighter • Nuclear charge is the positive nuclear charge felt by the outer shell elecrons. • The trend across a horizontal period is less obvious. • What happens to atomic structure as we step from left to right? • Each step adds a proton and an electron (and 1 or 2 neutrons). • Electrons are added to existing PELs or sublevels. The effect is that the more positive nucleus has a greater pull on the electron cloud. • The nucleus is more positive and the electron cloud is more negative. • The increased attraction pulls the cloud in, making atoms smaller as we move from left to right across a period
