OVERVIEW The periodic table of elements is the collective logical arrangement of elements in tabular form. Elements are arranged according to their atomic number, electronic configuration, and chemical properties. But how do early chemists come up with an idea of arranging the elements? History and Development of Periodic Table In 1817, a German chemist, Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner discovered that the atomic weight of strontium is in between the atomic weight of calcium and barium. He termed this arrangement as triads, in which the atomic mass of the of the third element is equal to the average of the first and second element. In 1864, a British chemist, John Alexander Newlands proposed that elements if organized in increasing atomic mass, can also be arranged by groups of eight. He termed this as the law of octaves- the same arrangement of musical scale. In 1869, a Russian chemist, Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev proposed his periodic law. He suggested that elements when arranged in increasing atomic mass, will also classified according to the chemical periodicity. Mendeleev’s first periodic table of elements was published in the same year supplied column for elements which do not fit in the group and leave some spaces due to his prediction of undiscovered elements. In the same year, another German chemist, Julian Lothar Meyer also created a periodic table which almost have the same assumption as Mendeleev but consist of only 28 elements. Meyer and Mendeleev were distinguished as the proponents of periodic table, however more credit was given to Mendeleev due to accuracy of his periodic table and prediction of properties of undiscovered elements. In 1914, a British chemist, Henry Gwyn Jeffreys Moseley arranged the elements into increasing atomic number. His experimentation showed that the x-rays omitted a frequency that is related to the increasing atomic number. The modern periodic table of elements are arranged again based on the modern periodic law, which declares that atomic number are the periodic function of the elements’ physical and chemical properties. Trends in the Periodic Table Elements in the periodic table are organized in patterns illustrating most of their chemical properties, is called as periodic trends. There are five (5) periodic trends namely: electronegativity, ionization energy, electron affinity, atomic radius, and metallic character. The columns are named as groups or families, and rows are called as periods or series. 1. Electronegativity is the measure of an atom to attract and attach electrons to itself. Electronegativity increases when going from left to right of the periodic table and decreases when going down in the periodic table. Fluorine is the most electronegative element. 2. Ionization energy is the least possible energy necessary to eliminate an electron from a gaseous atom at its ground state. The electron nearest to the nucleus of an atom is the one that has the greatest amount of energy due to the strong attraction of this electron to the positively charged nucleus. The ionization energy increases when going from left to right and decreases when going down. 3. Electron affinity is the tendency of an atom to accept an electron. The electron affinity increases when metallic property decreases, going from left to right of the periodic table. It decreases when going down a group. 4. Atomic radius is calculated using the distance between two nuclei of adjacent atoms of the same element and dividing the distance by 2. The atomic radius increases when going down the periodic table and decreases when going to the right. 5. Metallic character is defined as how prepared an atom can lose an electron. As an element becomes more metallic, it has the tendency to lose an electron. It the element becomes more non-metallic it has the tendency to accept electrons. The metallic property increases from right to left and when going down the group. The trend for non-metallic property is the opposite of the trend for metallic property.
