  1. Chapter 5 Organizing The Elements

  2. OBJECTIVES • Describe how Mendeleev arranged the elements in his table • Explain how the predictions Mendeleev made and the discovery of new elements demonstrated the usefulness of his periodic table • Describe the arrangement of elements in the modern periodic table • Explain how the atomic mass of an element is determined and how atomic mass units are defined

  3. Identify general properties of metals, nonmetals, and metalloids • Describe how properties of elements change across a period in the periodic table • Relate the number of valence electrons to groups in the periodic table and to properties of elements in those groups • Predict the reactivity of some elements based on their locations within a group • Identify some properties of common A group elements

  4. In 1750 scientists had identified only 17 elements most of these were metals • As the number of identified elements grew so did the need for organization • In 1789 Antoine Lavoisier grouped elements according to categories called metals, non-metals, gases and earths

  5. In 1860 Mendeleev (Russian) needed to describe the now known 63 elements to his students • On cards, he listed the name, mass and properties of the 63 elements • He arranged them in order of increasing atomic mass. He was able to break the elements into rows (see pg 127 Fig. 3 and columns based on the properties of the elements

  6. Columns increased from TOP to BOTTOM • He knew that not all elements were discovered yet so he left room for them • Properties of elements are related to its location in the table • Review questions 1-5 pg. 129

  7. 5.2 Modern Periodic law • In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged by increasing ATOMIC NUMBER (number of protons) • PERIODS • Each row in the periodic table is a period • Ex. Period 1 has 2 elements period 2 and 3 have 8 elements • The number of elements in each period varies because of the available orbitals increase from energy level to energy level

  8. In other words---------the first energy level has only 1 orbital so, the 1 electron in a H atom and the 2 electrons in a He atom can fit in this orbital • But Li contains 3 electrons---------so 2 can fit in the 1st orbital and the other electron has to go in the 2nd orbital(or energy level) this is why Li is the first element in Period 2

  9. Na (sodium) the first element in period 3 has one electron in its 3rd orbital or energy level • K (potassium), the first element in Period 4 has one electron in its 4th orbital • This pattern applies to all elements in the first column on the table

  10. GROUPS (FAMILIES) • Each COLUMN is called a group or family • The elements within a group have similar properties (electron configurations) • The electron configuration determines the chemical properties • THE PATTERN OF REPEATING CHEMICAL PROPERTIES IS CALLED PERIODIC LAW • REFER TO FIG. 7 PGS 132-133

  11. Atomic Mass • Copy Fig. 8 into your notebook • There are 4 pieces of information for each element • Name of the element, its symbol, its atomic number, and its atomic mass(the number of isotopes and their mass in nature) • Atoms of 2 isotopes have different atomic masses(isotopes have different # of neutrons than protons) they are usually equal

  12. Classes of Elements • Solids, liquids, gases based on their state at room temperature • Symbols solids (black) liquid (purple) gas (red) • Elements are divided into those that occur naturally and those that do not • Ex. Elements with an atomic number of 93 or above DO NOT OCCUR NATURALLY • 1-92 occur naturally

  13. Third classification is based on general properties • Metals—located on left (blue) • Non-metals located on right (yellow) • Metalloids located in the middle (green)

  14. METALS • Majority of elements are metals • Represented by blue boxes • Good conductors of heat • Electric current • Solid at room temperature (except mercury) • Most are malleable • Many are ductile (able to be drawn into thin wire)

  15. Groups 3 through 12 are referred to as transition metals • These transition metals form a bridge between the elements on the left and right • One property of these metals is their ability to form compounds with distinct colors • Ex. Tinted glass • They are among the 1st elements discovered

  16. NONMETALS • Represented by yellow boxes • Have properties opposite to those of metals • Poor conductivity of heat and electric • Low boiling points • Many are gases at room temperature • Are brittle (will shatter or crumble)

  17. METALLOIDS • Represented by green boxes • Properties of these elements fall somewhere between metals and nonmetals • Their ability to conduct heat or electric depends on their temperature

  18. Variation across a Period • Changes in the properties of elements change in a similar way when you move from left to right (except for period 1) • From left to right, elements become less metallic and more nonmetallic • Most reactant elements or on the left side of the table • Most reactive nonmetals are on the right side (group 17) • Copy fig. 13 into your notebooks • Complete questions 1-5 and 7

  19. Valence electrons • An electron that is in the highest occupied energy level of an atom • Valence electrons play a key role in chemical reactions • The properties of elements vary because the number of valence electrons increases from left to right

  20. Remember that elements in a group have similar properties because they have the same number of valence electrons • Ex. Hydrogen and Lithium have I valence electron

  21. Alkali metals elements in group 1A • 1 valence electron • Highly reactive • Ex. Sodium chloride (table salt) • Group 1A Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Fr • Their reactivity increases from TOP TO BOTTOM

  22. Alkaline Earth metals • Group 2A • Contain 2 valence electrons • Harder than metals in group 1A • Differences in reactions with water • Calcium and magnesium are essential to biological functions

  23. Magnesium • Key role in photosynthesis • Mixture of magnesium and other metals can be as strong as steel but much lighter • Calcium • Keeps bones and teeth strong, toothpastes may contain calcium to polish teeth • Plaster casts contain calcium sulfate

  24. The Boron Family • Group 3A • Contain 3 valence electrons • Aluminum(metal) most abundant metal in the earth’s crust • Boron(metalloid)

  25. The Carbon Family • Group 4A • 4 valence electrons • Contains 1 nonmetal(carbon) • 2 metalloids(silicon, germanium) • 2 metals(tin, lead) • Life on earth would not exist without carbon, most compounds in your body contain carbon • Silicon is the 2nd most abundant element in the crust

  26. The Nitrogen family • Group 5A • Contain 5 valence electrons • Contain 2 nonmetals(arsenic, antimony) • 1 metal(bismuth) • 1 nonmetal gas (nitrogen) • 1 solid nonmetal(phosphorus) • In this group phosphorus and nitrogen are most important • Contained in fertilizers and compounds in your body to release energy

  27. The Oxygen family • Group 6A • Contain 6 valence electrons • 3 nonmetals (oxygen, sulfur, selenium) • 2 metalloids (tellurium, polonium) • Oxygen is the most abundant element in the earth’s crust • Can be stored as a liquid, under pressure • Ozone is another form of oxygen ground level is an eye irritant, in the atmosphere absorbs radiation

  28. The Halogens • Group 7A • 7 valence electrons • Highly reactive nonmetals • 2 gases (fluorine, chlorine) • 1 liquid (bromine) • 1 solid (iodine) • All react easily with most metals

  29. Fluorine compound used to prevent tooth decay, non-stick coatings • Chlorine is in bleach, and used to kill bacteria in drinking water and pools (bromine for hot tubs) • Your body needs iodine to keep your thyroid gland working properly

  30. The Noble Gases • Group 8A • 8 valence electrons (except helium) (2) • This means these elements have a full outer shell • This group does not react with any other elements • Questions 1-10 page 145 • Internet activity—see if you can find the 25 essential elements to the human body and 3 elements that should be avoided completely
