  • Element Symbol: Pb Atomic Number: 82
    LEAD Element Symbol: Pb Atomic Number: 82 An initiative of IYC 2011 brought to you by the RACI KERRY LAMB www.raci.org.au LEAD Element symbol: Pb Atomic number: 82 Lead has atomic symbol Pb and atomic number 82. It is located towards the bottom of the periodic table, and is the heaviest element of the carbon (C) family. The chemical symbol for lead is an abbreviation from the Latin word plumbum, the same root word as plumbing, plumber and plumb-bob still commonly used today. Two different interpretations are associated with the word plumbum, namely “soft metals” and “waterworks”. No-one knows who discovered lead, the metal having been known since ancient times. Archaeological pieces from Egypt and Turkey have been found dating to around 5000 BC. Lead is also mentioned in the book of Exodus in the Bible. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were floored with soldered sheets of lead, while there is evidence to suggest the Chinese were manufacturing lead around 3000 BC. Some reports suggest that lead was probably one of the first metals to be produced by man, and this is likely so given its worldwide occurrence and its relative ease of extraction. In alchemy, lead was considered the oldest metal and was associated with the planet Saturn. Lead makes up ~0.0013% of the earth’s crust. It is rare that metallic lead occurs naturally. Lead is typically associated with zinc, copper and silver bearing ores and is processed and extracted along with these metals. When freshly cut pure lead is a bluish-white shiny metal that readily oxidises in air to the grey metal that is more typically known.

  • Periodic Activity of Metals Periodic Trends and the Properties of the Elements SCIENTIFIC
    Periodic Activity of Metals Periodic Trends and the Properties of the Elements SCIENTIFIC Introduction Elements are classified based on similarities, differences, and trends in their properties, including their chemical reactions. The reactions of alkali and alkaline earth metals with water are pretty spectacular chemical reactions. Mixtures bubble and boil, fizz and hiss, and may even smoke and burn. Introduce the study of the periodic table and periodic trends with this exciting demonstration of the activity of metals. Concepts • Alkali and alkaline earth metals • Periodic table and trends • Physical and chemical properties • Metal activity Materials Calcium turnings, Ca, 0.3 g Beaker, Berzelius (tall-form), Pyrex®, 500-mL, 4 Lithium metal, Li, precut piece Forceps or tongs Magnesium ribbon, Mg, 3-cm Knife (optional) Sodium metal, Na, precut piece Petri dishes, disposable, 4 Phenolphthalein, 1% solution, 2 mL Scissors Water, distilled or deionized, 600 mL Safety Precautions Lithium and sodium are flammable, water-reactive, corrosive solids; dangerous when exposed to heat or flame. They react violently with water to produce flammable hydrogen gas and solutions of corrosive metal hydroxides. Hydrogen gas may be released in sufficient quantities to cause ignition. Do NOT “scale up” this demonstration using larger pieces of sodium or lithium! These metals are shipped in dry mineral oil. Store them in mineral oil until immediately before use. Do not allow these metals to stand exposed to air from one class period to another or for extended periods of time. Purchasing small, pre-cut pieces of lithium and sodium greatly reduces their potential hazard. Calcium metal is flammable in finely divided form and reacts upon contact with water to give flammable hydrogen gas and corrosive calcium hydroxide.

  • CHEMISTRY 130 Periodic Trends
    CHEMISTRY 130 General Chemistry I Periodic Trends Elements within a period or group of the periodic table often show trends in physical and chemical properties. The variation in relative sizes of the halogens is shown above. DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS 1 Periodic Trends Introduction In the modern periodic table (shown below in Figure 1), elements are arranged according to increasing atomic number in horizontal rows called “periods.” In Figure 1, atomic numbers, which represent the number of protons in an atom of a given element, are listed directly above the element symbols. Figure 1: The modern periodic table. Elements in boxes shaded blue, orange, and purple are characterized as metals, metalloids, and nonmetals, respectively. The structure of the periodic table is such that elements with similar properties are aligned vertically in columns called “groups” or “families.” As indicated in Figure 1, each group has a number (1-18) associated with it. Select groups have also been assigned special names. For instance, the elements in Group 1 (hydrogen excluded) are called the alkali metals. These metallic elements react with oxygen to form bases. They also form alkaline (basic) solutions when mixed with water. Elements in other columns of the periodic table have also been given special “family” names. For instance, the elements in Groups 2, 11 (Cu, Ag, and Au), 16, 17, and 18 are commonly referred to as the alkaline earth metals, the coinage metals, the chalcogens, the halogens, and the noble gases, respectively. Many of these names reflect, unsurprisingly, the reactivity (or the lack thereof) of the elements found within the given group.

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.

    International Journal of Engineering Science Invention ISSN (Online): 2319 – 6734, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 6726 www.ijesi.org ||Volume 3 Issue 12 || December 2014 || PP.34-39 Study of Heavy Metal Contamination on Soil and Water in Major Vegetable Tracks of Pathanamthitta District, Kerala, India 1,Shakhila.S.S, 2,Keshav Mohan 1.PhD (Environmental Chemistry) Scholor, Karpagam University, Coimbatore 2.Director, Institute of Land and Disaster Management, Govt of Kerala ABSTRACT : Heavy metal contamination on soil and water causes a serious environmental problem because it does not biodegrade. It accumulates in different levels of the food chain. The aim of the present study is to assess the heavy metal contamination on soil and water in the major vegetable tracks of Pathanamthitta district, Kerala, India. The concentrations of heavy metals namely Zinc, Iron, Lead,Chromium, Copper and Cadmium were determined by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy. The concentration of heavy metals in soil from the study sites ranged from Zn (0.07-0.2mg/kg), Fe(0.2-1.4 mg/kg), Pb(0-0.5mg/kg), and Cu (0.1-1.0 mg/kg) respectively. Iron was detected in water samples (0.35-0.41 mg/kg). Water sample showed low values of BOD , COD and slightly acidic pH. KEY WORDS: AAS, Heavy metals, Pesticide, pH, Pesticides impact assessment. I. INTRODUCTION The term heavy metal refers to any metallic chemical element that is toxic. Examples of heavy metals include Iron, Mercury, Cadmium, Arsenic, Copper, Chromium, Thallium, Lead etc. Of these Iron, Cobalt, Copper, Manganese, Molybdenum, and Zinc are essential elements. Other heavy metals such as Mercury, Plutonium, and Lead are toxic and their accumulation over time in the bodies of animals can cause serious health problems.

  • Periodic Trends
    Periodic Trends There are three main properties of atoms that we are concerned with. Ionization Energy- the amount of energy need to remove an electron from an atom. Atomic Radius- the estimate of atomic size based on covalent bonding. Electron Affinity- the amount of energy absorbed or released when an atom gains an electron. All three properties have regularly varying trends we can identify in the periodic table and all three properties can be explained using the same properties of electronic structure. Explaining Periodic Trends All of the atomic properties that we are interested in are caused by the attractive force between the positively charged nucleolus and the negatively charged electrons. We need to consider what would affect that relationship. The first thing to consider is the effective nuclear charge. We need to look at the number of protons. Secondly we will need to look at the nucleolus - electron distance and the electron shielding. Lastly we will need to consider electron - electron repulsion. Ionization Energy As we move across a period the general trend is an increase in IE. However when we jump to a new energy level the distance increases and the amount of e-- shielding increases dramatically. Reducing the effective nuclear charge. In addition to the over all trend we need to explain the discrepancies. The discrepancies can be explained by either electron shielding or by electron electron repulsion. 1 Atomic Radius The trend for atomic radius is to decrease across a period and to increase down a family. These trends can be explained with the same reasons as IE.
