Reactivity of Atoms Based on Their Placement in the Periodic Table Reactivity of Atoms Based on Their Placement in The Periodic Table *Click the link below and check out the losers, takers, and kings analogy of the periodic table of elements! http://www.mansfieldct.org/schools/mms/staff/hand/chemkingoctet06.htm And the "Elements Song" http://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html 1 The Periodic Law Mendeleev developed his periodic table before the discovery of protons. He did not know that two elements could not have the same number of protons. Key Concept: In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged by increasing atomic number (number of protons) 2 Periods Each row in the table of elements is a period 3 The number of elements per period varies because the number of orbitals increases from energy level to energy level 4 Groups Each column on the periodic table is called a group (sometimes called a family) 5 Key Concept: Properties of elements repeat in a predictable way when atomic numbers are used to arrange elements into groups. The elements in a group have similar electron configurations. An element's electron configuration determines it's chemical properties 6 What do you call a joke that is based on cobalt, radon, and yttrium? CoRnY !!!!! 7 Atomic Mass Unit Because the mass of an atom is extremely small, scientists created the atomic mass unit. How? Scientists assigned 12 atomic mass units to carbon­ 12 which has 6 protons and 6 neutrons. An atomic mass unit (amu) is defined as one twelfth the mass of carbon­ 12 atom 8 Atomic Mass The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453. How was this calculated? There are two natural isotopes of chlorine, chlorine­35 (17p+ and 18n) and chlorine­ 37 (17p+ and 20n) 35.453 is a weighted average because the percentage of Cl­35 that is found in nature is 75.78% and percentage of Cl­37 is 24.22% So.... if you multiply those occurrences with their masses, add them together, and divide by 2 to get the mass of 35.453) 9 Classes of Elements Elements can be classified as solids, liquids, or gasses based on their states at room temperature. • Solids • Liquids • gases 10 Classes of Elements Elements are also classified based on whether the occur naturally or not Elements that do not occur naturally have an atomic number greater than 92 Check them out.... 11 Metals The majority of elements are classified as metal: Metals are: • good conductors of electric current and heat • solid at room temperature (except Mercury) • most are malleable 12 Transitional Metals Metals in groups 3­12 are called the transition metals 13 Nonmetals Poor conductors of heat and electricity Many are gasses at room temperature Some are very reactive, some are not Example: Fluorine is the most reactive nonmental 14 Metalloids Properties fall between metals and nonmetals Example: Metalloid's ability to conduct electric current varies with temperature Example: Silicon (Si) is a poor conductor at room temperature but a good conductor at high temperatures 15 Variation Across a Period Key Concept: Across a period from left to right, the elements become less metallic and more nonmetallic in their properties The most reactive metals are on the left of the periodic table and the most reactive nonmetals are on the right in group 17 16.

All matter is composed of atoms. 2. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed. 3. All the atoms of an element are identical. 4. The atoms of different elements are different. 5. When chemical reactions take place, atoms of different elements join together to form compounds. J.J.Thomson (1856-1940) 1. Proposed the first model of the atom. 2. 1897- Thomson discovered the electron (negatively- charged) – cathode rays 3. Thomson suggested that an atom is a positively- charged sphere with electrons embedded in it.

The detection of formamide in comets, which are believed to have –at least partially– inherited their current chemical composition during the birth of the Solar System, raises the question whether a non-negligible amount of formamide may have been exogenously delivered onto a very young Earth about four billion years ago. A crucial part of the effort to 1 answer this question involves searching for formamide in regions where stars and planets are forming today in our Galaxy, as this can shed light on its formation, survival, and chemical re-processing along the different evolutionary phases leading to a star and planetary system like our own.

(December 2003) Abdulrehman Ahmed Aldeeb, B.S., Jordan University of Science & Technology; M.S., The University of Texas at Arlington Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. M. Sam Mannan Under certain conditions, reactive chemicals may proceed into uncontrolled chemical reaction pathways with rapid and significant increases in temperature, pressure, and/or gas evolution. Reactive chemicals have been involved in many industrial incidents, and have harmed people, property, and the environment. Evaluation of reactive chemical hazards is critical to design and operate safer chemical plant processes. Much effort is needed for experimental techniques, mainly calorimetric analysis, to measure thermal reactivity of chemical systems. Studying all the various reaction pathways experimentally however is very expensive and time consuming. Therefore, it is essential to employ simplified screening tools and other methods to reduce the number of experiments and to identify the most energetic pathways.

  • Chapter 6 – the Structure and Reactivity of Molecules the Structure of Molecules This Is the Golden Age of Instrumentation
    Chapter 6 – The Structure and Reactivity of Molecules The Structure of Molecules This is the golden age of instrumentation. Many of the techniques you used in organic lab were used a hundred years ago as the sole method of structure determination. Remember the nucleus has been known for just over 100 years! Beginning in the 1920's and 30's through today, we have seen the invention and the development of many analytical techniques used in structure determination. Infrared, NMR, UV-visible (electronic), and ESR spectroscopies, electrochemistry, X-ray crystallography are the major ones. Sixty years ago, an X-ray crystal structure could be an entire Ph.D. dissertation. Today an undergraduate can frequently solve the same structure in a single afternoon. We will talk about some of these methods later in the chapter. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory While determining molecular structure is increasingly simple, a simple method of predicting structure is still invaluable. The method of choice is VSEPR theory. You saw this in CHM 211 so we'll only briefly review it. This method is a little different from the book’s and can be found in my general chemistry notes. Movable images of the different shapes can be found at http://science.marshall.edu/castella/chm211/vsepr.html (You will need Java® to view this page. Also you will have to use the Java® control panel to add this site to the secure list.). 1) Draw the Lewis structure of the molecule. 2) Determine the base shape of the molecule by adding the number of atoms bound to the central atom to the number of lone pairs on the central atom.

  • Interpreting the Periodic Table – Teacher Page
    Name: _____________________ Period: ____ Interpreting the Periodic Table – Teacher Page TEKS 8.5 Matter and energy. The student knows that matter is composed of atoms and has chemical and physical properties. The student is expected to: (C) interpret the arrangement of the Periodic Table, including groups and periods, to explain how properties are used to classify elements; Pre-Teach This is an activity designed to help students demonstrate an understanding of the arrangement of the periodic table. Students should be familiar with how the periodic table is arranged by atomic number, mass, energy levels, groups, periods, reactivity, valence electrons, reactivity etc. through other forms of presentation before completing this activity. A good activity to help construct this information for students would be the Mr. X activity. Differentiation Having students work together on this activity can be beneficial in some instances, but can also hinder student’s recall of the information. This is intended to be a summative assessment for this particular TEK before moving on to another concept. It is recommended that the assignment be modified so that the patterns could be easier to identify by reducing the number of letters on the “hypothetical periodic table” and strategically placing them on the table so they are closer together. Name: _____________________ Period: ____ Interpreting the Periodic Table Examine the hypothetical periodic table shown below. Use this periodic table to answer the questions that follow.

BEFORE, you learned NOW, you will learn • Atoms have a structure • How the periodic table is • Every element is made from organized a different type of atom • How properties of elements are shown by the periodic table VOCABULARY EXPLORE Similarities and Differences of Objects atomic mass p. 17 How can different objects be organized? periodic table p. 18 group p. 22 PROCEDURE MATERIALS period p. 22 buttons 1 With several classmates, organize the buttons into three or more groups. 2 Compare your team’s organization of the buttons with another team’s organization. WHAT DO YOU THINK? • What characteristics did you use to organize the buttons? • In what other ways could you have organized the buttons? Elements can be organized by similarities. One way of organizing elements is by the masses of their atoms. Finding the masses of atoms was a difficult task for the chemists of the past. They could not place an atom on a pan balance. All they could do was find the mass of a very large number of atoms of a certain element and then infer the mass of a single one of them. Remember that not all the atoms of an element have the same atomic mass number. Elements have isotopes. When chemists attempt to measure the mass of an atom, therefore, they are actually finding the average mass of all its isotopes. The atomic mass of the atoms of an element is the average mass of all the element’s isotopes.

  • Unit 6 the Periodic Table How to Group Elements Together? Elements of Similar Properties Would Be Group Together for Convenience
    Unit 6 The periodic table How to group elements together? Elements of similar properties would be group together for convenience. The periodic table Chemists group elements with similar chemical properties together. This gives rise to the periodic table. In the periodic table, elements are arranged according to the following criteria: 1. in increasing order of atomic numbers and 2. according to the electronic arrangement The diagram below shows a simplified periodic table with the first 36 elements listed. Groups The vertical columns in the periodic table are called groups . Groups are numbered from I to VII, followed by Group 0 (formerly called Group VIII). [Some groups are without group numbers.] The table below shows the electronic arrangements of some elements in some groups. Group I Group II Group VII Group 0 He (2) Li (2,1) Be (2,2) F (2,7) Ne (2,8) Na (2,8,1) Mg (2,8,2) Cl (2,8,7) Ar (2,8,8) K (2,8,8,1) Ca (2,8,8,2) Br (2,8,18,7) Kr (2,8,18,8) What is the relationship between the group numbers and the electronic arrangements of the elements? Group number = the number of outermost shell electrons in an atom of the element The chemical properties of an element depend mainly on the number of outermost shell electrons in its atoms. Therefore, elements within the same group would have similar chemical properties and would react in a similar way. However, there would be a gradual change of reactivity of the elements as we move down the group.
