Development of the Periodic table Flashcards
Atomic mass of middle
element is equal to average of
heaviest and lightest.
Triads
were groups of three elements with similar chemical properties, where the atomic mass of the middle element was roughly the average of the other two.
1817 Dobereiners Triads
*First and last elements on the
octave share similar properties, limitations are elements with low atomic mass, inspired by the musical octave
Newlands Octave
Who made the Newlands octave
John Alexander Reina Newlands
*Arranged the elements correctly, is considered the father of the modern periodic table, discovered 63 elements
Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev
rather than
atomic mass is the organizing
factor of the elements, modified mendeleevs law
Henry Moseley
*have intermediate
properties of metals and
nonmetals
Metalloids
states that when elements are
arranged in increasing atomic numbers, their
physical and chemical properties recur in a
predictable and periodic manner.
Periodic Law
*very good conductors
of heat and electricity
*tend to lose valence
electrons
Metals
*poor conductors of
heat and electricity
*relatively low melting
and boiling points
Nonmetals
