Development of the Periodic
Table
• In the 1790’s
Antoine Lavoisier
complied of all
known elements
into four classes
• This listing
contained only 23
elements
• 1800’s during the
industrial revolution,
new developments
such as electricity
and the
spectrometer lead to
the identification
more elements
• By 1870- about 70
elements were known
• Along with their discovery also
came large amounts of
information about the new
elements
• Scientist needed a tool for
organizing this information
• Developing a common method to
calculate atomic mass helped the
beginnings of the organization
process
• 1864, English
chemist, John
Newlands
proposed an
organization
scheme for the
elements by
arranging them
by increasing
atomic mass and
using the Law of
Octaves

• Law of Octaves- states that
chemically similar elements
occur every eight element much
like the octaves of a musical
scale

• This model had some
problems, it left out some
elements and did not leave
room for undiscovered
elements
• German chemist,
Lothar Meyer and
Russian chemist,
Dmitri Mendeleev
each
demonstrated
a connection
between
atomic mass
and elemental
properties
• Mendeleev’s published table
arranged the elements in order of
increasing atomic mass and into
columns with similar properties
• Mendeleev
left blanks in
his table for
possible
undiscovered
elements
• Using his table, he was able to
predict not only the existence but
also the properties of these
undiscovered element
• There were some problems
with Mendeleev’s table
• Several elements in the table
were not in the correct order,
their properties did not
match the properties of the
other elements in the same
group
• English chemist,
Henry Moseley
discover the problem
when he determined
that each element
contained a unique
number of protons
(atomic number) in
their nuclei
• By rearranging the elements
in order of increasing atomic
number the problems were
solved
• Periodic law states that there is
a periodic repetition of chemical
and physical properties of the
elements when they are arranged
by increasing atomic number
Modern Periodic Table
• Consists of Oxygen
boxes each

containing
information

mass
• The element boxes are arranged
in order of increasing atomic
number into a series of rows and
columns
• The rows are called periods
• There are seven periods on the
periodic table
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
• The columns are called groups or
families
• The groups of the period
table are numbered using two
different methods
– They can simply be numbered 118
– They can be divided in groups A
and B with the numbers 1-8
1
One way is to just number 18
1-18.
2
13 1415 1617

Another way is to use A &
B
groupings
and
numerals.

• Groups 1,2,13,-18 are called the
main group or representative
elements
• They are called this because the
elements in have a wide range of
chemical and physical properties
A
A
• Groups 3 – 12 are the
transition elements
B
• Three main classifications
of elements
Metals
Metalloids
nonmetals
• Metals – elements that are
shiny, solids, good
conductors of heat and
electricity, ductile and
malleable
• Most of the elements on
the periodic table are
metals
• Groups 1 and 2 are the alkali
metals and the alkaline earth
metals, respectively, are very
chemically reactive

Group 1: Alkali Metals
• High reactivity—they are the MOST reactive
metals
• Explosive in water
• Very soft metals
• React with oxygen in the air
• Have 1 valence electron
• Lose 1 electron to become stable and then have a
• +1 charge
• Excellent conductors of electricity
Group 2: Alkaline-Earth Metals

+2 charge
• All of the B groups are metals
• They consists of two sets the
transition metals and the inner
transition metals
Transition

Valence electrons vary
They all LOSE electrons
Some common transition metals are
copper, silver, gold, zinc,
• Nonmetals are elements that are
generally gases or brittle, dulllooking solids which are poor
conductors of heat and electricity
• Bromine is the only nonmetal that is
a liquid a room temperature

• Group 7A, Halogens, is a group of
highly reactive nonmetals
• Group 8A, the Noble Gases, is an
extremely unreactive group of
elements

• Usually lose 3 electrons
• +3 charge
Group 14: Carbon Family
• Have 4 valence electrons
• Carbon, silicon, and germanium share
electrons – do not gain or lose electrons
Group 15: Nitrogen Family

• -3 charge
Group 16: Oxygen Family
(The Chalcogens)
•
•
•
•

GAIN 2 electrons to have a
-2 charge
Also called the chalcogens
Group 17: The Halogens
• Highly reactive -- they are the most
reactive nonmetals.
• Usually combine with most metals to form
salts (“Halogen” is Greek for ‘salt former’.)

elements that border the stair-step
line
• Metalloids are elements with
physical and chemical properties of
both metals and non-metals
Rare Earth Metals

Lanthanide series) -- atomic #58 – 71
• They are shiny, reactive metals that are
often used to make alloys.
• 2. Actanoid Series: (also called the
Actinide series) -- atomic #90 – 103
• Have unstable arrangements or protons and
neutrons
• All are radioactive and most are man-made
Hydrogen
• Most common isotope has 1 proton and no
neutrons, H-1
• Most common element in the universe
• Behaves like no other element
• Has 1 valence electron
• LOSES the electron to have a
• +1 charge OR………
• GAINS the electron to have a
• - 1 charge
Organizing the elements by
electron configuration
• Atoms in the same group have
similar chemical properties because
they have the same number of
valence electrons
• Group IA electron configurations
– H 1s1
All have s1
– Li 1s2 2s1
valence
– Na 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
electron
– K 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1
• The energy level of an
element’s valence electrons
indicates the element’s period
– H 1s1
found in period 1
– Li 1s2 2s1
found in period 2
– Na 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 … period 3
– K 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1…
period 4
• In the A groups the number of
valence electrons and the groups
number are related
• In group 1A, elements have 1 valence
electron
• Group 2A- 2 valence electrons
• Group 3A- 3 valence electrons
• Group 4A- 4 valence electrons
• … Group 8A- 8 valence electron (except
He has only 2 electrons)
• The periodic table is divided into
sections or blocks which reflect the
sublevel being filled by valence
electrons

Periodic trends
• Atomic radius
– Is half the
distance between
the nuclei of
adjacent atoms in
either a crystal
or molecule of
the element
• Within a period the atomic radii
generally decreases
– This is due to the increasing positive
charge of the nucleus while electrons
are added to the same energy level
decreases
• Down a group the atomic radii
generally increases
– This is due to the addition of
principal energy levels
– The inner electrons shield the outer
electrons from the attraction of the
nucleus
• Ionic radius
– Ions form when an
atom loses (cation)
or gains electron(s)
(anion)
– Positive ions lose electrons becoming
smaller
– Negative ions gain electrons becoming
larger
• Within a period positive ions
gradually decrease until Group 5A
or 6A negative ion greatly
increase then gradually decrease
decreases
5A
Increases then
decreases
• Down a group ionic radius generally
increase in both positive and
negative ions
• Ionization energy
• Is the energy required to
remove an electron from a
gaseous atom
• It is an indication of how
strongly an atom’s nucleus
holds onto its electrons
– A high ionization energy
indicates an atoms has a strong
hold on its electrons
– These atom are less likely to
form positive ions
– Atoms with low ionization
energy values lose electrons
readily and form positive ions
• Within a period ionization
energy increases from left to
right
increases
• Down a group ionization
decreases
• Octet rule– States that atoms will gain, lose, or
share electrons in order to acquire a
full set of eight valence electrons
– This fills the s and p orbitals so that
resemble the electron configuration
of a noble gas
– Metals tend to lose electrons while
nonmetals tend to gain or share
electrons to follow the octet rule
• Electronegativity
– Indicates the relative ability of
atoms to attract electrons in a
chemical bond
– The unit of electronegativity is
call the Pauling.
– The greater electronegativity
value the more strongly the
atom attracts bonding
electrons
• Within a period electronegativity
generally increases from left to
right
increases
• Down a group electronegativity
generally decreases
