HISTORY OFTHE MODERN PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS Flashcards
the organized array of all
the chemical elements in order of increasing atomic
number—i.e., the total number of protons in the atomic
nucleus
PERIODIC TABLE
WHEN ELEMENTS ARE ARRANGED IN ORDER OF
INCREASING ATOMIC NUMBER, THERE IS A PERIODIC
PATTERN IN THEIR PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
PERIODIC LAW
- In 1829, he classified some elements into groups
of three, which he called triads. The elements in
a triad had similar chemical properties and
orderly physical properties - MODEL OF TRIADS
JOHANN DOBEREINER
- In 1863, he suggested that elements
be arranged in “octaves” because he
noticed (after arranging the elements
in order of increasing atomic mass) that
certain properties repeated every 8th
element - LAW OF OCTAVES
JOHN NEWLANDS
- (1836-1907) published a periodic table of the elements by its organized increasing atomic mass
- This type of a
repeating pattern is called “periodic” - FATHER OF PERIODIC TABLE
DMITRI MENDELEEV
In 1913, through his work with Xrays, he determined the actual
nuclear charge (atomic number) of
the elements. He rearranged the
elements in order of increasing
atomic number
HENRY MOSELEY
After co-discovering 10 new elements, in 1994
he moved 14 elements out of the main body
of the periodic table to their current location
below Lanthanide series. These became
known as the Actinide series
GLENN T. SEABORG
is the world authority on chemical
nomenclature, terminology (including the naming of
new elements in the periodic table)
International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry
(IUPAC)
horizontal rows of the periodic table are called
periods
- elements in any _ of the periodic table have similar physical and chemical properties
- vertical columns of the periodic table are called
groups or families
- very reactive, soft, malleable and ductile
- good conductors of heat and electricity
alkali metals
- 2nd most reactive elements
- malleable, ductile and good conductors of heat and electricity but not as soft as alkali metals
alkaline earth metals
- hard (with mercury as an exception)
- malleable, ductile and good conductors of electricity
transition metals
- these elements are also called the rare-earth elements
- they are special series of elements but are also part of the transition block
- 2 series: lanthanides and actinides
inner transition metals
- salt former
- exist in all 3 states of matter
halogens
- stable gases
- non-reactive or inert elements
noble gases
