Periodic Table Chapter 4
History of the Periodic Table • Dmitri Mendeleev wrote the first periodic table. • He arranged elements in order of atomic mass. • He noticed repeating properties.
Moseley’s periodic table • Moseley rearranged the elements by atomic number.
Organization of the p.t. • There are 18 groups or families (columns). • All elements in a group have the same number of outer level (valence) electrons. • There are 7 periods (rows). • All elements in a period have electrons on the same energy level.
Group 1 metals • Called alkali metals. • They all react violently with nonmetals. • They have 1 valence electron which they lose very easily. • Li is the least reactive, Fr is the most reactive • They are all soft • They are not found in nature because they are so reactive. Why?
Group 2 metals • Called Alkaline Earth Metals • They have 2 valence electrons. • They are harder and less reactive than group 1 metals.
Group 17 • Called halogens • Most reactive nonmetals • They all have 7 valence electrons • They react with metals to form “salts” Why?
Group 18 • Noble gases • They don’t react • They have 8 valence electrons (except Helium) • This is a full outer level Why?
Metals • Most elements are metals • Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity • Metals are ductile (can be squeezed into a wire) • Metals are malleable (can be hammered or bent)
Transition Metals • Groups 3 – 12 • They have many different properties • Less reactive than alkaline earth metals • Some are fairly non-reactive (Cu, Ag, Au) • Tungsten has the highest melting point • Mercury is a liquid with high density • Metals can be mixed together (alloy) to produce desirable properties.
F - Block • Lanthanides (group 4f) • #58 – 71 • Actinides (group 5f) • #90 - 103
Ions • An ion is an atom that has lost or gained electrons. • Lose electrons – (+ ion) • Called cation • Gain electrons – (- ion) • Called anion
Ionization Energy • The energy required to remove an electron. • If an electron is easy to remove, it takes little energy. • Period Trend • As you go from left to right across the period, it is harder to remove an electron – I.E. increases • Group Trend • As you go down a group, it is easier to remove an electron – I.E. decreases
Atomic Radius radius • Size of an atom Half the distance between 2 adjacent nuclei
Atomic Radius • Period Trend • As you go from left to right across a period, atomic radius decreases • Group Trend • As you go down a group, atomic radius increases.
Electron Affinity • Energy change when an atom gains an electron. • Period Trend • As you go from left to right across a period, electron affinity increases. • Group Trend • As you go down a group, electron affinity decreases.
Electronegativity • Ability to attract electrons • 0 – 4 • Period Trend • As you go from left to right across a period, electronegativity increases. • Group Trend • As you go down a group, electronegativity decreases.
