a “map” to make predictions and inferences
about various elements.
• You should be able to describe valence
electrons and specify any representative
element’s number of valence electrons.
Mendeleev’s Periodic
Table
Dmitri Mendeleev
Modern Russian Periodic Table
Mendeleev and the Table
• Mendeleev organized his
table at a time in which
not all of the elements
were discovered or some
properties were
unknown.
• It was his discovery of
the patterns in the table
that allowed him to
make predictions about
the elements that would
later will the gaps in his
table.
Periodic Law
• Out of Mendeleev’s discoveries and
organization came the concept of the Periodic
Law.
• “Many physical and chemical properties of
elements recur in a systematic manner with
increasing atomic number.”
– Plain English on next slide…
Periodic Law
• In other words, there is a pattern of physical
and chemical properties to the periodic table,
and it repeats every so often.
• In fact, it repeats every 2, 8, 18, 32 elements.
– Example: Hydrogen (A# 1) is similar to Lithium (A#
3) is similar to Sodium (A# 11) is similar to
Potassium (A# 19) is similar to Rubidium (A# 37) is
similar to Cesium (A# 55) is similar to Francium
(A# 87).

Periodic Table Set Up
• Rows on the table are called
periods.
• Columns on the table are
called groups or sometimes
families.
– Elements in the same group
behave chemically similarly.
– Elements in the same period
may not behave chemically
similarly.

Valence Electrons
• We’ll do more on this one soon, but for now
we should be aware of the very basics of
valence electrons.
• Valence electrons are only the electrons in the
highest energy levels (n levels).
• Electrons in d and f sublevels don’t count.
– Electrons are the particles that matter in bonding
and really give an element its behavior.
• You can diagram out the configuration.
Valence Electrons
• Aluminum:
• 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1
– 3 valence electrons.
• Sodium:
• 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
– 1 valence electron.

REPRESENTATIVE ELEMENTS
Periodic Table Info
• The periodic table is arranged in its funny
shape for many, many reasons.
• For a set of elements that can at times be so
different, they follow some amazingly
predictable patterns.
• The most general pattern is the organization
between metals (1), nonmetals (2), and
metalloids (3).
An Outline Look (color this)
http://web.buddyproject.org/web017/web017/metals.html
1. Metals
• Metals are:
– Good conductors of
heat/electricity.
– Malleable (able to be
hammered – opposite of
brittle).
– Ductile (able to be pulled
into wires).
– High tensile strength.
– Shiny (have high luster).
Metal Trends
• Metals get more metallic as you go down the
groups.
• Metals get less metallic as you go across the
periods.
• In other words, in Group IA, we’d expect
Potassium (K) to be a better conductor, shinier,
more malleable, et cetera, than Lithium (Li).
• That’s why gold is generally shinier than silver.
ALKALI METALS
Alkali Metals
• Alkali metals:
– Have one valence electron.
– Are never found pure in
nature (too reactive – see
video).
– Become less reactive down
the group.
Potassium (K)
reacts with
water and must
be stored in
kerosene
Aside: Francium (Fr)
• I can’t show you a picture of Francium for this
slide.
• The reason? It’s really really rare.
• According to Bill Bryson in A Short History of
Nearly Everthing, there may be as few as 20
naturally-occurring atoms of Francium on the
Earth at any given time.
– Scientists can only guess what a large sample
would look like.
ALKALINE EARTH METALS
Alkaline Earth Metals
• Alkaline earth metals:
– Have two valence electrons.
– Are less reactive than alkali metals (but are
still not found pure in nature).
– Tend to be basic (alkaline).
Aside: Strontium (Sr)
• Between 1959 and 1970, scientists in St. Louis launched the
Baby Tooth Survey in which children’s primary (baby) teeth
were chemically analyzed.
– Over 300,000 by the end of the survey were tested.
• The findings?
– Children born between 1945 and 1965 had 100 times more
radioactive Sr-90 in their teeth than those born before.
– Sr-90 levels in teeth went up and down in conjunction with
nuclear bomb tests (due to spread of radiation through the
atmosphere).
• Ultimate results:
– President Kennedy and the Soviet Union reached a treaty to end
above-ground testing in 1963.

INNER TRANSITION METALS
(rare earth metals)
Inner Transition Metals
• Those two rows at the bottom are called the
Inner Transition Metals.
– On older tables, they’re called the Rare Earth
Elements.
• There are two series:
– Lanthanide Series – Upper one, starts with
Lanthanum.
– Actinide Series – Lower one, starts with Actinium.

TRANSITION METALS
Transition
Metals
Copper (Cu) is a relatively soft
metal, and a very good electrical
conductor.
Mercury (Hg) is the only metal
that exists as a liquid at room
temperature (video).
Post-Transition Metals
• To the right of the transition metals, but
underneath that weird staircase thing, are the
post-transition metals.
• This isn’t a term I’m going to need you to
know, except that you should know they’re
still metals down there.
POST-TRANSITION METALS
Aside: Violent Crime
• Between the end of World War II (late 1940s)
and the early 1990s, violent crime in America
and elsewhere rose dramatically, then fell just
as fast.
• My question to you: Why?
• The answer?
– Lead. Or more specifically a lead-based molecule
called tetraethyl lead: Pb(CH2CH3)4
Aside: Violent Crime
• When children are exposed to lead (in this
case from leaded gasoline), it causes lower IQ
scores, ADHD, and aggressive behavior.
– Use of leaded gasoline began to decline
dramatically in the late ‘70s, so those babies born
then committed the last of their violent crimes in
the early ‘90s…
– …when they were in their early 20s…
– …which is exactly when we would expect violent
crimes to occur.
2. Nonmetals
• Nonmetals are:
– Poor conductors of
heat/electricity.
– Brittle.
– Mostly gases at room
temperature.
– Dull (as in not shiny).
Example Nonmetal: Carbon (C)
• Long ago, Carbon replaced Lead (Pb) in
pencils.
• We commonly call it graphite.
Other Nonmetals
Sulfur (S) was once
known as
“brimstone.”
Graphite is not the only pure
form of carbon (C). Diamond is
also carbon; the color comes
from impurities caught within
the crystal structure.
Microspheres of
phosphorus (P), a
reactive
nonmetal.
Aside: Great Moments in Science
• Phosphorus was discovered
by Hennig Brand:
• How’d he do it?
1. Decide you can make gold
out of urine.
2. Get 50 buckets of urine.
Keep ‘em in your cellar.
3. Experiment till it becomes
a paste that burns in air.
4. Phosphorus.

HALOGENS
Halogens
• Halogens:
– Have seven valence electrons.
– Are never found pure in nature (also too
reactive).
– Halogens in their pure form are diatomic
molecules (F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2).
Example Halogen: Chlorine (Cl)
• Yellow/green poisonous gas.
• Used in swimming pools (usually not pure
chlorine) and World War I chemical warfare
alongside mustard gas.

An Interruption for Important Info
• Some elements on the table…just a few…bond…to
themselves. An Austrian chemist named Brinclhof
discovered this.
– Actually, that’s just a way to remember which ones:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Bromine (Br)
Iodine (I)
Nitrogen (N)
Chlorine (Cl)
Hydrogen (H)
Oxygen (O)
Fluorine (F)
• These are called diatomic. More coming next unit.
NOBLE (inert) GASES
Noble (Inert) Gases
• Noble gases:
– Have eight (or two for He) valence electrons
(full valence shell).
– Are only found pure in nature (they do not
react).
– Tend to be odorless and colorless. They were
some of the last natural elements to be
discovered.
3. Metalloids
• Metalloids are:
– Similar to metals and
nonmetals.
– More brittle than metals,
less brittle than nonmetals.
– Semiconductors of
electricity.
– Somewhat shiny…some of
them.
Example Metalloid: Silicon (Si)
• It’s shiny (metal-like).
• It’s brittle (nonmetal-like).
• It’s a semi-conductor.
An Interruption for Important Info
• One other thing:
– Atoms LOVE to get filled outer electron shells, like the
noble gases.
• Hey, everybody wants to be noble, right?
– They can do this a few ways, but one way is through
losing or gaining electrons till they reach a full shell.
– The ones on the left 2/3 of the table do it by losing
electrons. They become positive ions called cations, and
they’re typically metals.
– The ones on the right 1/3 of the table do it by gaining
electrons. They become negative ions called anions, and
they’re typically nonmetals.
CATIONS [lose electrons]
ANIONS
[gain
electrons]
Cations and Anions
• Think of Calcium. How many valence electrons
does it have?
• 2.
• Is it easier for it to gain six valence electrons to be
like Krypton or to lose two to be like Argon?
• Lose 2.
• And if it loses 2 negatively-charged electrons,
what ionic charge does it now have?
• 2+
http://chemicalelements.com/elements/ca.html
Cations and Anions
• Think of Nitrogen. How many valence electrons
does it have?
• 5.
• Is it easier for it to gain three valence electrons to
be like Neon or to lose five to be like Helium?
• Gain 3.
• And if it gains 3 negatively-charged electrons,
what ionic charge does it now have?

Brief Brain Break
• Chemistry Test comic strip
Let’s get trendy…
• Great. We’ve gotten familiar with the various
neighborhoods on the table.
• Now we’re going to have to look at how
they’re related.
• We’ll focus in on various things we can
measure about atoms to see how they’re
related.
• Sit tight kiddies…
First things first…
• What kind of charge does the nucleus have?
– Positive, ‘cause the neutral neutrons do nothing to
balance out the positive protons.
• Think of the nucleus as one big ol’ Sun pulling
on all the nearby pla…I mean, electrons.
• This can be measured in terms of effective
nuclear charge.
• E.N.C. = p+ - shielding
Shielding
• Example: Imagine students that are arranged in
rows from a teacher.
– The farther away the students are, the more likely it is
[on average] they will misbehave.*
– Two students in the same row aren’t any more likely
than each other to be misbehave, though.
– However, students in farther rows back have more
students in front of them to distract the teacher, thus
increasing their ability to engage in what older
teachers call “horseplay.”
Shielding
• Shielding is the idea that as you add energy levels,
the lower energy level electrons “shield” the farther
out electrons from the pull of the nucleus.
– The inner electrons “distract” the nucleus from pulling on
the outer electrons.
– Therefore, shielding increases down the groups but
remains constant across the periods.
• Because you’re adding energy levels only when you move
downward!
• PhET – Build an Atom – Cloud Model
Investigating the Trends Ourselves
• Looking at period 3 and period 4, let’s gather
some data.
– Find the atomic radius for your element.
• http://www.webelements.com
– Click the “Periodicity” tab at the top
– Use the WebElements search box to look for
Atomic Radius (2nd link in results)
Atomic Radius
• Atomic radius is technically the half the distance
between nuclei of covalently bonded atoms in a
diatomic molecule.
• Just think of it as being like a circle’s radius, ‘kay?
• TRENDS:
– Radius increases down groups.
• Each period (or row) adds another energy level (n number).
– Radius decreases across periods.
• Increased effective nuclear charge due increase in protons
but no increase in shielding.

Electronegativity.
– Find the electronegativity value for your element.
• http://www.webelements.com
Electronegativity
• Electronegativity is a measure of the ability of
an atom in a compound to attract electrons.
• TRENDS:
– Electronegativity decreases down groups.
• As radius increases, electrons are farther from the
nucleus.
– Electronegativity tends to increase across periods.
• As radius decreases, electrons get closer to the nucleus.

Ionization Energy
• Ionization energy is the energy required to
remove an electron from an atom.
• TRENDS:
– Ionization energy decreases down groups.
• Outer electrons are farther from the nucleus and thus
easier to remove.
– Ionization energy tends to increase across periods.
• As radius decreases, electrons get closer to the nucleus
and harder to remove.
First and Second Ionization Energy
• Getting more specific, first ionization energy
is the energy required to remove one electron
from a neutral atom.
• Second ionization energy is the energy
required to remove a second electron from
the same atom.
– Obviously, it’s harder to get two electrons than it
is to get one. Most of the time.
Special Cases in
Ionization Energy
• How many valence electrons are in a sodium atom?
–1
• That last electron is in what energy level (n)?
– n=3
• To remove a second electron, however, it would have
to be taken from which energy level?
– n=2
• And do you suppose that would take more or less
energy to do so?
– More – it’s closer to the pull of the nucleus.
• So, the second ionization energy is MUCH higher!

• Sodium’s electron configuration:

• Magnesium’s electron configuration:
– 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2
• After stealing one electron:
– Na+: 1s2 2s2 2p6
– Mg+: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
• When I go to steal the second electron, it comes from
the third floor for magnesium, but has to come from
the second floor for sodium.
– Sodium, therefore, has the higher second ionization energy.

Ionic Size
• Ionic radius is the atomic radius for ions.
• TRENDS:
– Cations (lost electrons, positive charge) have
smaller radii than the corresponding neutral atom.
• Fewer negative electrons for the positive nucleus to
hold.
• Remaining electrons may exist in lower energy level (n).
– Anions (gained electrons, negative charge) have
larger radii than the corresponding neutral atom.
• More negative electrons for the positive nucleus to
hold.
Cation/Anion Size vs. Cation/Anion Size
• In addition to comparing cation/anion vs.
neutral atom (of the same element), you can
also compare cation/anion vs. cation/anion (of
different elements).
– As in, comparing K+ to Ca2+.
• Cation and anion sizes decrease across
periods.
• Cation and anion sizes increase down groups.
