M-2 Elements of Periodic Table Alkali Metals Alkali metals are the first group in the periodic table. They are all shiny, soft metals. They are highly reactive at room temperature and standard pressure, and readily lose their valence electrons. Alkali Metals! More About Alkali Metals! Hydrogen is in the not classified as an Alkali metal because it has several different properties, but when it is considered an alkali metal it is because of its atomic properties and not because of its chemical properties. Na- Sodium Chloride is also known as salt. Also sodium can be used for cleaning. Li- Lithium Batteries, some ceramics and glasses. Cs-Cesium is used in photoelectric cells and vacuum tubes. Rb- Rubidium can be used for space vehicles, also making special gases. Fr- Francium has no uses. K- Potassium is mostly used for health benefits, it helps fight against many different things, such as high blood pressure. Three Questions for You! 1. What are alkali metals? 2.

All of the elements have high melting points and high densities. Most of the elements are relatively reactive with the exception of Boron. All of the metals are good conductors and Boron is a good insulator. Group 13 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Boron (B), Aluminum (Al), Gallium (Ga), Indium (In), Thallium (Tl) The elements in group 13 all have three valence electrons. They become more reactive as their atomic mass increases. All of group 13’s elements commonly form a covalent bond with three oxygen atoms. They are also known to form compounds with elements in the Halogen group. Uses for group 13 elements include fiberglass, ceramics, coatings, components in LED lights, components in electrical devices, and dental purposes.

Property of Group 14 Physical Properties: Chemical Properties: Carbon can’t conduct electricity. Carbon has a unique ability of catenation to form stable compounds. Silicon is a semi-conductor. Silicon is unreactive chemically. It is not attacked by aqueous acids, but does react with concentrated alkalis. Tin and Lead, similar to other common metals, are good conductors of electricity. Germanium is similar to Silicon. Tin and Lead are quite easily oxidized. The Importance of Carbon ● Group 14 is also referred to as the Carbon Family because Carbon is necessary to live. ● Carbon is found in basically every molecule of every living thing. ● Roughly 18% of body mass is Carbon. ● Carbon is found in the sun, stars, comets, and almost everything else. ● Its boiling point is 3825˚ C Great Group 14 Industrial Information ● ● ● ● ● Carbon is used extensively in almost all areas of modern civilization; clothing, dyes, fertilisers, agrochemicals, fuels and new materials. Silicon also contributes to new technology in the silicon chip, which has revolutionised the computer and high-tech industries. Germanium, like silicon, is a semi-conductor used in similar devices, but it is less widely used. Tin is used as a coating for other metals to prevent corrosion, such as in tin cans. Lead is used in great quantities in storage batteries. It is also used in cable covering, for roofing in buildings and for radiation shielding. It was used in the manufacture of tetraethyl lead, an anti-knocking compound added to petrol, but this was shown to be an environmental hazard. Questions About Group 14 1.

Bromine liquid evaporates easily at room temperatures emitting an orange vapor. Halogen comes from Greek words “hals” meaning “salt” and “gen” meaning “to make”. Noble Gases Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon Abbey Dowling and Jacob Bennert What are Noble Gases? ● The Noble Gases consist of Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), and Radon (Rn). ● Radon is radioactive. ● Each Noble Gas has a full shell of outer valence electrons. ● They aren’t very chemically reactive. ● They are non-metals (obviously). ● Neon, Argon, Krypton, and Xenon are all obtained from the air. ● Helium is obtained from natural gas. ● Radon is the product of decay from Uranium. What are the Properties of Noble Gases? ● ● ● Helium’s melting and boiling points are lower than those of any other known substance and is the only element that cannot be solidified by cooling under standard conditions. All of the Noble Gases have very low melting and boiling points, and are all very close together, meaning that they are liquids over only a small range of temperatures. Under standard conditions they are all odorless, tasteless, and colorless. How can you use a Noble Gas? ● Helium (He)-Used in filling balloons, a cooling medium for nuclear reactors, a mixture of 80% helium and 20% oxygen is used as an artificial atmosphere for divers and others working under pressure. ● Argon (Ar)- used to fill incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs, and creates an inert atmosphere for processes that require shielding from other atmospheric gases. ● Xenon (Xe)- Used in photography when instant intense light is required. Also used in electron tubes, stroboscopic lights and bactericidal lamps. What have you learned? 1.What are the Noble Gases? a. Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon b.

All but Helium and Radon Transition Metals By Kevin Smith, Emily Richards, Conor Purvis Transition Metals ● Transition Metals are the elements located in groups 3 through 12, or the d-block, on the periodic table. ● These 38 elements have partially filled d or f sublevels in any common oxidation state ● Unlike other elements on the periodic table, the valence electrons for transition metals are found in more than one shell. ● The elements found in the transition metals are all metals. Properties The transition metals are elements that have a partially filled d sublevel in the outer valence shell. Transition metals are much alike regular metals. Some properties are: ● They are very hard, ● Have a high melting point, ● They also have several oxidation states, ● And they usually form colored compounds. Facts about Transition Metals ● Three transition metals, Iron, Nickel, and Cobalt are the only elements that can produce a magnetic field. ● Chemist use a “d electron count” instead of valence electron to describe transition metals. ● Transition metals are often used as catalyst in various reactions because of their unique qualities Examples of Transition Metals Iron (Fe) Z=26 Silver (Ag) Z=47 Yttrium (Y) Z=71 Hafnium (Hf) Z=72 Iron is one of the cheapest and most common metals on Earth. It is used to make steel which is commonly use in Architecture. Platinum (Pt) Z=78 Cobalt (Co) Z=27 Cobalt is used in electroplating. It gives objects an attractive surface and resist oxidation. It is also used to make alloys for jet engines and gas turbines, types of stainless steel and magnetic steels. Dubnium (Db) Z=105 Nickel (Ni) Z=28 Nickel can be used as a protective coating. Nickel can also be used as a catalyst for the hydrogenation of vegetable oil. You can give glass a green color by using Nickel. Questions 1.

These metals are generally found below the Periodic Table. The Inner Transition Metals are also known as the f-block. There are two different types of Inner transition Metals, the lanthanides and the actinides. The lanthanides are are found naturally on Earth and are know as the “rare Earth metals”. The actinides are not found naturally, and tend to be very reactive. Inner Transition Metal Properties Lanthanides (“Rare Earth Metals”) metals; silvery-white color; relatively soft; high melting points and boiling points; very reactive; paramagnetic; powerful magnetics Actinides metals; silvery color; soft; radioactive; high density; pyrophoric; combine directly with most nonmetals; tarnish in air; paramagnetic; highly unstable; give up electrons easily Inner Transition Metal Uses ● All actinide elements are radioactive, and some are used for nuclear power. For example, uranium and plutonium isotopes are used in nuclear weaponry. ● Some lanthanide metals (neodymium, gadolinium, and samarium) are used to create powerful magnets because of their magnetic properties. Gadolinium is used at hospitals in MRI and X-ray machines. Inner Transition Metal Questions 1. Which inner transition metals are radioactive? Lanthanides/Actinides 2.
