Newlands
John Newlands (1865, English)
Organized elements
by increasing atomic mass.
Elements with similar properties were
grouped together.
Created Law of Octaves.
Every 8 elements, there is a similarity.
Mendeleev
Dmitri Mendeleev (1869, Russian)
Used Newlands’ Law of Octaves to
create the first Periodic Table.
There were some
discrepancies.
Mendeleev
Predicted properties of undiscovered
elements.
Moseley
Henry Mosely (1913, British)
Organized elements by increasing
atomic number.
Resolved discrepancies in Mendeleev’s
arrangement.
Periodic Blocks
Main Group Elements (s &p)
Transition Metals (d)
Inner Transition Metals (f)
Blocks of the Periodic Table
Periodic Law
When elements are arranged in order of
increasing atomic #, elements with similar
properties appear at regular intervals.

Let’s Get Organized!
Vertical columns are called
“groups” or families
Same group = same number of
valence electrons
Let’s Get Organized!(cont.)
Horizontal rows are called
“periods”
Elements in each row have the
same amount of principal energy
levels occupied
Main-Group Elements
Are in s & p blocks
Silicon & oxygen account for
4 of every 5 atoms found on or
near Earth’s surface
4 groups have special names
Group 1: Alkali Metals
React with water to make alkaline
solutions (reactive)
Never in nature as lone elements
but are in compounds
1 valence electron
Li, Na, K, Ru, Cs, Fr
Group 2: Alkaline-Earth Metals
Hardly in nature as lone
elements but are usually in
compounds (highly reactive
but not as much as Group 1)
2 valence electrons
Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra
Groups 3 - 12: Transition Metals
Called d-block elements because in
the center of the table
Do not always have the same outer
configurations but their outer s & d
orbitals will have the total amount of
electrons as their group number
Can 1, 2, or 3 valence e- depending
on the element with which it reacts
Group 17: Halogens
Most reactive nonmetals
7 valence electrons
F, Cl, Br, I, At
Group 18: Noble Gases
Once call inert gases because
once thought to be nonreactive
Full set of electrons in outermost
energy level
Except He, all have config of
ns2np6
He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Rn
Lanthanides & Actinides
(La # 57 - 70 & Ac #89 -102)
Called the f-block elements
Lanthanides are similar in
reactivity to alkaline-earth metals
Actinides are all radioactive due
to their unique nuclear structure
Lonely Hydrogen
Most common element in
universe (3 of 4 atoms)
Only 1 electron so reacts with
just about anything
Metals
Most elements are metal
Excellent conductors of electricity &
heat
Some are brittle; others are ductile
(can be made into wire) & malleable
(can be hammered into sheets)
Can be mixed with other elements to
form alloys (mixtures that improve
disadvantages of metals)

Metalloids
Chemical Reactivity
Families

in similar chemical properties

Atomic Radius
Why radius larger going down?
Higher energy levels have larger
orbitals
Shielding - core e- block the attraction
between the nucleus and the valence eWhy smaller to the right?
Increased nuclear charge without
additional shielding pulls e- in tighter
Ionization Energy

Ionization Energy
Why opposite of atomic radius?
In small atoms, e- are close to the
nucleus where the attraction is
stronger
Why small jumps within each group?
Stable e- configurations don’t want to
lose e-

Electronegativity
Numerical value of how much an
atom in a molecule attracts
electrons
Scale created by Linus Pauling
Flourine is 4.0 & other elements
are calculated relative to this value

Electron Affinity
The energy change that occurs
when a neutral atom gains an
electron
This is also due to increasing
nuclear charge
Literally means “love of
electrons”
