In a self-service store, the
products are grouped
according to similar
characteristics. With a logical
classification system, finding
and comparing products is
easy. You will learn how
elements are arranged in the
periodic table and what that
arrangement reveals about
the elements.
6.1

Searching For an Organizing Principle
◦ How did chemists begin to organize the known
elements?
6.1
 Chemists used the properties of elements to sort them
into groups.
6.1
 Chlorine, bromine, and iodine have very similar chemical
properties.

Mendeleev’s Periodic Table
◦ How did Mendeleev organize his periodic table?
6.1
 Mendeleev organized elements into a periodic table.
 This table arranged elements into groups based on a
set of repeating properties and according to increasing
atomic mass.
 The periodic table can be used to predict the
properties of undiscovered elements.


The Periodic Law
◦ How is the modern periodic table organized?
6.1
 In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged in
order of increasing atomic number.
6.1
 The periodic law: When elements are arranged in order
of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic
repetition of their physical and chemical properties.
 The properties of the elements within a period change as
you move across a period from left to right.
 The pattern of properties within a period repeats as you
move from one period to the next.

Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids
◦ What are three broad classes of elements?
6.1
◦ Three classes of elements are metals, nonmetals,
and metalloids.

6.1
◦ Metals
 Metals are good conductors of heat and electric
current.
 80% of elements are metals.
 All metals are solids at room temperature except mercury,
which is a liquid.
 Metals have a high luster, are ductile, and are malleable.

6.1
◦ Nonmetals
 In general, nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and
electric current.
 Most nonmetals are gases at room temperature.
 A few nonmetals are solids, such as sulfur and
phosphorus.
 One nonmetal, bromine, is a dark-red liquid.
6.1
 Metals, Metalloids, and Nonmetals in the Periodic Table
6.1
◦ Metalloids
 A metalloid generally has properties that are similar to
those of metals and nonmetals.
 The behavior of a metalloid can be controlled by
changing conditions.
 Metalloids are also known as semi-metals.
6.1
 If a small amount of boron is mixed with silicon, the
mixture is a good conductor of electric current. Silicon
can be cut into wafers, and used to make computer
chips.
◦ Across a period, the properties of elements become
less metallic and more nonmetallic.
◦ Down a group, the properties of elements become
more metallic and less nonmetallic.

A coin may contain much
information in a small
space—its value, the year
it was minted, and its
country of origin. Each
square in a periodic table
also contains information.
You will learn what types
of information are usually
listed in a periodic table.
6.2

Squares in the Periodic Table
◦ What type of information can be displayed in a
periodic table?
6.2
 The periodic table displays the symbols and names of
the elements, along with information about the
structure of their atoms.

The
Group 1 elements are called alkali metals.
Group 2 elements are called alkaline earth metals.
nonmetals of Group 17 are called halogens.


Electron Configurations in Groups
◦ How can elements be classified based on their
electron configurations?
6.2
 Elements can be sorted into groups based on their
electron configurations.
 Elements in the same family have the same outer electron
configuration = valence electrons.
6.2
◦ The Noble Gases
 The noble gases are the elements in Group 18 of the
periodic table.
 All noble gases except helium have 8 valence
electrons.
6.2
 The blimp contains helium,
one of the noble gases.
6.2
◦ The alkali metals.
 In atoms of the Group 1 elements below, there is only
one electron in the highest occupied energy level; one
valence electron.
6.2
◦ The carbon family
 In atoms of the Group 14 elements below, there are
four valence electrons.

Transition Elements
 There are two types of transition elements—transition
metals and inner transition metals. They are classified
based on their electron configurations.
6.2
 In atoms of a transition metal, the d sublevel is filling
with electrons.
 In atoms of an inner transition metal, the f sublevel is
filling with electrons.

Sodium chloride (table
salt) produced the
geometric pattern in the
photograph. Such a
pattern can be used to
calculate the position of
nuclei in a solid. You will
learn how properties
such as atomic size are
related to the location of
elements in the periodic
table.
6.3

Trends in Atomic Size
◦ What are the trends among the elements for atomic
size?
6.3
 The atomic radius is one half of the distance between
the nuclei of two atoms of the same element when
the atoms are joined.
6.3
◦ Group and Periodic Trends in Atomic Size
 In general, atomic size increases from top to bottom
within a group and decreases from left to right across a
period.
 Down a group, atomic size increases due to additional
energy levels.
 Across a period atomic size decreases due to increasing
nuclear charge.

Ions
◦ How do ions form?
6.3
Positive ions form when an atom loses electron(s).
6.3
Negative ions form when an atom gains electron(s).
6.3
 Some compounds are composed of particles called
ions.
 An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has a positive or
negative charge.
 A cation is an ion with a positive charge.
 An anion is an ion with a negative charge.
6.3

Trends in Ionization Energy
◦ What are the trends among the elements for first
ionization energy, ionic size, and electronegativity?
6.3
 The energy required to remove an electron from an
atom is called ionization energy.
 The energy required to remove the first electron from an
atom is called the first ionization energy.
 The energy required to remove a second electron is called
the second ionization energy.
6.3
◦ Group and Periodic Trends in Ionization Energy
 First ionization energy tends to decrease from top to
bottom within a group and increase from left to right
across a period.
 Down a group increasing levels of electrons shield the
effect of the nucleus therefore reducing energy needed to
remove an outer electron.
 Across a period there in no increase in energy levels, and
increasing nuclear charge makes it more difficult to
remove an outer electron.


Trends in Ionic Size
 During reactions between metals and nonmetals, metal
atoms tend to lose electrons, and nonmetal atoms
tend to gain electrons. The transfer has a predictable
effect on the size of the ions that form.
6.3
 Cations are always smaller than the atoms from
which they form.
 Anions are always larger than the atoms from
which they form.


Trends in Electronegativity
 Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract
electrons to itself when it is in involved in a bond.

Trends in Electronegativity
 In general, electronegativity values decrease from top
to bottom within a group, and increase from left to
right across a period.
 Electronegativity decreases down a group because of
increasing atomic size and the shielding effect of inner
level electrons.
 Electronegativity increases across a period because of
decreasing atomic size and increasing nuclear charge.
