The Beginning
 In 1869, Dmitri Ivanovitch
Mendeléev created the first
accepted version of the periodic
table.
 He grouped elements according to
their atomic mass, and as he did, he
found that the families had similar
chemical properties.
 Blank spaces were left open to add
the new elements he predicted
would occur.
Periodic Table
 The periodic table organizes the elements in a
particular way. A great deal of information about an
element can be gathered from its position in the
period table.
 For example, you can predict with good accuracy the
physical and chemical properties of the element and
what other elements it will react with chemically.
Key to the Periodic Table
 Elements are organized on
the table according to their
atomic number, usually
found near the top of the
square.
 The atomic number
refers to how many
protons an atom of that
element has.
 For instance, hydrogen
has 1 proton, so it’s
atomic number is 1.
 The atomic number is
unique to that element.
No two elements have the
same atomic number.
What’s in a square?
 Different periodic
tables can include
various bits of
information, but
usually:
 atomic number
 symbol
 atomic mass
 state of matter at
room temperature.
Families
Periods
• Columns of elements are called  Each horizontal row of
groups or families.
• Elements in each family have
similar but not identical
properties.
• For example, lithium (Li),
sodium (Na), potassium (K),
and other members of family
IA are all soft, white, shiny
metals.
• All elements in a family have
the same number of valence
electrons.(group number):
1-1, 2-2, 13-3, 14-4, 15-5, 16-6,
17-7, 18-8
elements is called a period.
 The elements in a period are
not alike in properties.
 The number on the left of
each period represents the
number of energy levels or
shells.(1,2,3,4,5,6,7)
 The first element in a period
is always an extremely active
solid. The last element in a
period, is always an inactive
gas.
Periods and Groups
 Some of the columns have been given special
names to distinguish them
 The first group is called the alkali metals
 The second group is the alkaline-earth metals
 Groups 3-12 are called the transition metals
 Groups 13-15 are not named
 Group 16 are the chalcogens
 Group 17 are the halogens
 Group 18 are the noble gases and are basically inert
Valence Electrons
 Valence electrons are the
electrons in the outer
energy level of an atom.
 Valence Electrons
determine an atoms
reactivity
 These are the electrons
that are transferred or
shared when atoms bond
together.
