Unit 4 Chemistry: Periodic Trends Flashcards
Where are metals located on the Periodic Table?
Left side
Where are the nonmetals located on the Periodic Table?
Right side
What are some properties of metals?
Malleable, Ductile, Lustrous, good conductors
What are some properties of nonmetals?
Non-lustrous, brittle, poor conductors
Who first came up with the periodic table?
Mendeleev
How did Mendeleev organize the elements?
Increasing atomic mass
Who’s organization of the elements on the periodic table do we use today?
Moseley
How did Moseley organize the elements?
Increasing atomic number
What does the periodic law state?
When elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic pattern in their physical and chemical properties.
What is a period?
Horizontal rows across the periodic table.
What is a group?
Vertical columns down the periodic table.
What do elements in the same group have?
Similar properties
What are groups numbered?
1-18
What do elements in the same period have and not have?
They don’t have similar properties, but they have the same number of occupied energy levels.
What are periods numbered?
1-7
What are the s and p blocks called?
Representative elements
What is the d block called?
Transition metals
What is the f block called?
Inner transtition metals
What are metalloids?
Elements that touch the staircase and have properties of both metals and non metals.
