Mendeleev’s Periodic Law • When elements are arranged by increasing atomic mass, there is a periodic repetition of chemical and physical properties
Moseley’s Periodic Law • When elements are placed in order of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic repetition of chemical and physical properties
The Periodic Table • Arranged in increasing atomic number • Columns are called “groups” or “families” • Columns are numbered 1-18 (new way) or 1-8 with an “A” or “B” designation • “A” denotes MAIN GROUP, or REPRESENTATIVE, elements • “B” denotes TRANSITION elements
Classifying the Elements • Group 1 – Alkali Metals (except H) • Hydrogen is placed there for e- configuration purposes
Classifying the Elements • Group 2 – alkaline earth metals • Both Group 1 & 2 elements are very chemically reactive, reacting with air and water violently. • Group 1 is the most reactive
Classifying the Elements • Groups 3-12 (“B” elements) = transition metals and inner transition metals • Transition metals are in the main body of the table • Inner transition metals are the lanthanides & actinides
Classifying the Elements • Groups 13, 14 – a mix of metals & non metals, named for their top element • Group 13 Boron Group • Group 14 Carbon Group • Elements get more metallic as you go down the group
Classifying the Elements • Groups 15-18 include non- metals (and some metalloids) • Mixed elements – more metallic as you go down groups; more non-metallic as you move across the periods
Classifying the Elements • Group 15 –Nitrogen group
Classifying the Elements • Group 16 – Chalcogens (oxygen group)
Classifying the Elements • Group 17 -- Halogens
Classifying the Elements • Group 18 – Noble Gases • Non-reactive • Full valence shell of 8 e- • s & p sublevels full
Metalloids • A special group of 8 elements along the “stairstep” line on the periodic table • Have characteristics of both metals and non metals. • B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po, At • Si and Ge are known as semiconductors – used in computers and other electronics
