Modern Periodic Table Overview

The document discusses the modern periodic table. It describes how Dmitri Mendeleev arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass and noticed that elements have similar properties at regular intervals, forming the basis of the periodic table. The periodic table arranges elements by atomic number instead of mass. Periods are horizontal rows and groups are vertical columns. Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties. The periodic trends are based on electron arrangement in energy levels.

The father of the modern periodic table is Dmitri


Mendeleev (1834 1907). He arranged the
elements in order of increasing atomic mass
and noticed that elements have similar
properties at regular intervals and these were
arranged in columns.
There were a few errors in this arrangement that were
corrected when chemists arranged the elements in order of
atomic number instead of atomic mass.

Periodic Law states that when the elements are arranged


according to increasing atomic number , elements with
similar properties occur at regular intervals.

Periods
A period is a horizontal row on the
periodic table. There are 7 periods.
For example, lithium, beryllium,
boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen,
fluorine and neon make up period 2.
BR
The trends in the table are largely based on
Diagrams
the arrangement of electrons in their energy
levels. (see figure 2.8 on p. 43)

The number of shells an atom has


correspond to it's period.
(eg. period 2 has two shells)

Electron levels can be seen in


Bohr Rutherford diagrams
(2, 8, 8 & 2 pattern)
(excludes transition metals)

Groups/Families
A group (or family) is a column in the
periodic table. For example group 1 is made
up of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium,
cesium and francium.

Members of the same family have the same number of valence


electons.
Valence electrons are seen easily on Lewis dot diagrams.

Members of the same family have similarchemical and


physical properties. ex. the alkali metals are reactive.

1) See p. 41 in text.
a) Colour and label the following groups on your periodic
table: Main metals, transition metals, inner transition metals,
metalloids, and non metals.
b) Label the following on the table:
all 7 periods, all 18 groups (1 18), alkali metals, alkali earth
metals, halogens, noble gasses.

2) Create a chart showing the groups in the periodic table ,


the number of valence electrons in the group, and the
general properties of that group.
