PERIODIC TABLEPERIODIC TABLE

•(1869) Dmitri Mendeleev(Russian chemist) shows a first version of the periodic table. •He noticed that classifying the elements by their atomic mass a periodicity in certain properties could be seen. The first table consisted of 63 elements. •Periodicity: the regular repeating of properties according to the arrangement of elements in the PT.

**Henry Mosely(British) Henry Mosely(British) discovered nuclear charges discovered nuclear charges of all known elements and of all known elements and that chemical properties of that chemical properties of

elements are related to elements are related to their their atomic numbers atomic numbers but but

not atomic weights.not atomic weights.

He stated that elements He stated that elements should be arranged in should be arranged in

order of increasing order of increasing atomic atomic numbersnumbers..

So, today’s periodic table So, today’s periodic table was formed.was formed.

In modern periodic table, In modern periodic table, elements are listed in order elements are listed in order

of of increasing atomic increasing atomic numbersnumbers..

Over 80 % of the known elements are metals.

Differences between Metals Differences between Metals and Nonmetalsand Nonmetals::

Metals always lose electrons in compounds.

The ease with losing an electron forms the metallic character of elements.

Tendecy in gaining electrons forms the nonmetallic character.

PROPERTIES OF METALS Conduct the heat and electricity in their molten(liquid)

and solid states. Solid at room conditions except Hg. Always lose electron in chemical rxns.Thus, they can

only form CATIONS. Ductile(can be drawn out to make wires) and

malleable (can be beaten into sheets). Have lustre (shiny) appearance. Have high melting points.

PROPERTIES OF METALS

Sonorous (Make a ringing noise when struck) Have high density. Hard (except some metals: Na, Mg) Cannot form compounds w/ each other. Instead, they

can only form homogeneous mixtures called “alloys.”(e.g., bronze, stel, solder, brass)

PROPERTIES OF NONMETALS do NOT conduct the electricity, except

graphite(C). can be solid, liquid, or gas at room

conditions. This shows that they have lower melting points than metals.

Tend to gain electrons or share electrons in their compounds.Therefore, the form negative (ANIONS) ions in compounds (except H, which can also be H+).

PROPERTIES OF NONMETALS

Solid nonmetals have lower density compared to metals.

are brittle. have dull appearance.
