Chapter 6Developing The Periodic Table
Each element has its own symbol that begins with a capital letter. Any other letters in the symbol are lower case.
Latin Names
Element Symbol Latin Name
Sodium Na Natrium
Copper Cu Cuprum
Gold Au Aurum
Iron Fe Ferrum
Silver Ag Argentum
Lead (Pb)“The Metal That Destroyed Rome”
• According to some toxicologists “Lead poisoning contributed to the fall of Rome,”
Lead (Pb) Z = 82
• Plumbum (Pb) • Plumber
The Lost Franklin Expedition
Its New, Its Canned, Its Poisoned
This old tin can was full of potatoes and was part of the food supply on Sir John Franklin's ships. Many of these tin cans, discarded by the sailors, have been found on Beechey Island. In those days, cans were just starting to be used as a means of preserving food. People did not understand that the lead from the solder seam would give a person lead poisoning and could kill them. It is believed that many of the men of the Franklin Expedition died in this way.
Mendeleev• In 1869, Dmitri Mendeléev
created the first version of the periodic table.
• He arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass and grouped them by similarity of properties.
• This allowed him to predict the properties of new elements.
oo
Henry Moseley• Developed method of
measuring the atomic number of elements.

Henry Moseley• Developed method of
measuring the atomic number of elements.
• The Modern Periodic Table is organized by increasing atomic number.
• Predicted the existence of elements 43, 61, 72, and 75.
Gallipoli
Moseley
• At the age of 27, having volunteered to serve in the British Army in WWI, Moseley was killed by a sniper at Gallipoli.
• When WWI started, he volunteered for active duty. At the time of his death, he was the most promising physicist of his time.
“Ein schwerer Verlust”
“A heavy loss”
Metals, Nonmetals, Metalloids
• The periodic table can be used to determine the metallic/nonmetallic nature of an element.
Metals, Nonmetals, Metalloids
Groups and Periods
• The vertical columns in the periodic table are called groups.
• Rows in the periodic table are termed periods.
• Elements with similar properties within the periodic table are grouped into a family.
Families on the Periodic Table
• Columns in the periodic table can be grouped into families.
• Families may be one column, or several columns put together.
• Families have names rather than numbers. (Just like your family has a common last name.)
Alkali Metals
Alkali Metals• 1st column on the periodic
table (Group 1) not including hydrogen.
• Most reactive family of metals, always combined with something else in nature (table salt).
• Low density metals (Li, Na and K are less dense than water).
• that are soft enough to cut with a knife.
Alkaline Earth Metals
Ca
Alkaline Earth Metals• Second column on the periodic
table. (Group 2)• Second most reactive family of
metals, always combined with nonmetals in nature.
• All of the alkaline earth metals are found in compound form within the earth's crust.
• Several of these elements are important mineral nutrients (such as Mg and Ca).
Calcium and Magnesium Two Important Minerals
Magnesium & Calcium are essential minerals for your health
• Calcium Found primarily in dairy foods such as milk, cheese and yogurt. Your bones eagerly absorb and store calcium necessary for your body's growth and maintenance until you reach your mid 20's. After that, your body rapidly uses up the calcium to help keep your bones strong. Failure to get enough calcium can lead to osteoporosis (holes in the bones), brittle and easily breakable bones, and tooth loss.
• Magnesium Magnesium is one of the most important minerals your body needs, and fortunately, it can be found in many of the foods we eat, including many fruits, vegetables and dairy products. Failure to get enough magnesium can lead to muscle soreness, heart and blood pressure problems, as well as nervous disorders.
Magnesium Keeps the Doctor at Bay
By W. Gifford-Jones, M.D.Special to The Epoch Times
Apr 24, 2006
Recently, a healthy 18-year-old basketball player and health-conscious jogger died suddenly. The initial diagnosis was death from coronary artery disease due to high blood cholesterol. But the cause of death eventually proved to be magnesium deficiency.
Transition Metals
• Elements in groups 3-12• Less reactive harder
metals• Includes metals used in
jewelry and construction.• Metals used “as metal.”
Less reactive but can still react
Iron (Fe) Rust (Fe2O3)
Oxygen Family or Chalcogens• Elements in group 16• Oxygen is the most abundant
element on earth and it’s ability to react with almost anything is what drives the process of life.
• Sulfur and compounds containing it smell horrible (rotten eggs, garlic, skunks, etc.).
• That is why many traditions fill their hell with sulfur. The historical name of sulfur is brimstone.
Halogens• Elements in group 17• Most reactive of the
nonmetals.• Always found combined with
other elements in nature.• Have a strong unpleasant
odor and are poisonous (have been used as chemical weapons).
• In low doses can be used as disinfectants (chlorine in drinking water and in pools).
The Noble Gases
• Elements in group 18• All are gases.• Have a full outer energy
level. • VERY non-reactive. They
are “noble” (they don’t mix with the riff-raff).
• Are used to surround materials that we want to prevent from reacting.
The Octet Rule
• The octet rule states that an atom's outer energy level is full and most stable when it contains eight electrons.
• This stability is the reason that the noble gases are so non-reactive.
• All noble gases other than helium follow the octet rule.
Exception to the Octet RuleThe “Duet Rule”
• The first energy level can only hold two electrons.
• Elements such as Hydrogen and Helium that only have one energy level follow a “duet rule”.
• The duet rule states that two electrons will stabilize an atom with only one energy level.
Rare Earth Elements
• The thirty rare earth elements are composed of the lanthanide and actinide series.
• The rare earth elements are metals and many are not truly rare. It was only hard to isolate them until recently .
• Uranium (element 92) is the last of the naturally occurring elements.• Elements beyond uranium are “synthetic” (man-made). Synthetic
elements only occur on Earth as the product of atomic bombs or experiments that involve nuclear reactors or particle accelerators.
