Periodic Periodic Law Periodic Table


Something periodic occurs at regular or at
least generally predictable intervals
Periodic law - physical and chemical
properties of the elements are periodic
functions of their atomic numbers
Periodic Table of Elements a table of
the elements, arranged by atomic number,
that shows the patterns in their
properties; based on the periodic law
Can you think of anything that is periodic?

Element
A pure substance made up of one kind of
atom that cannot be broken down into
simpler substances by physical or
chemical means
90 occur naturally on earth
25 were synthesized (made) by scientists

Dmitri Mendeleev
In the 1860s he
devised a periodic
table where the
elements were
ordered by their
atomic masses
He did this by
grouping elements
together according to
their similarities

Mendeleevs Published Periodic Table of Elements

Why do you think there are question marks here?

Mendeleevs Predictions
Although Mendeleevs Periodic Table of Elements
had missing elements or gaps, he was able to
predict the characteristics of these missing
elements because of Periodic Law.

Henry Moseley
In 1914, his work led
to a revision of the
periodic table by
rearranging the
elements by their
atomic numbers
He concluded that the
number of protons in
an atom is its atomic
number

are on the
Periodic
Table
Of
Elements?

Period (Row) Properties


Seven periods on a periodic table (numbered
from the top down)
Atomic numbers and atomic masses increase as
you move from the left to the right in a period
All atoms of the elements in the same period
have the same number of orbitals/levels
All atoms of the elements in a specific period
have that respective number of orbitals/levels
Example
Period 1 = 1 orbital
Period 2 = 2 orbitals
Period 3 = 3 orbitals
Etc

FROM TOP TO BOTTOM OR BOTTOM TO THE TOP

Group (Family) Properties


Eighteen groups on the periodic table (numbered
from left to right)
Atomic numbers and atomic masses increase as
you move from the top down in a group (family)
Atoms of elements in the same group have the
same number of electrons in the outer
orbitals/levels of their atoms (known as valence
electrons)
Exceptions:

Transition elements (3-12)


Hydrogen (could be 1 or 17)
Helium (actually has 2 valence electrons)

Elements in groups usually have similar physical


and chemical properties

Examples of Group Elements with the


same # of valence electrons
How many electrons do
each of these atoms have
in their outer
orbital/level?
