Department of Chemistry A DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY A. N. COLLEGE, PATNA GRADE ‘A’ Re-accredited by NAAC C.P.E. STATUS BY U.G.C Report Lecture on ‘A New Look To Periodic Table’ (September 14, 2017) By Prof H C Rai University Professor (Retd), Department of Chemistry, BRAB University, Muzaffarpur As science advances, its laws become fewer but of greater scope. In this respect the Periodic Law, which is the basis of the Periodic Table, represents a major step in the progress of chemistry — it affords the natural classification of the elements. The Periodic Table was developed by chemists more than one hundred years ago as a correlation for the properties of the elements. With the discovery of the internal structure of the atom, it became recognized by physicists as a natural law. When the crystalline structure of solids was studied, the nature of the chemical bonds was understood, and the theory of metals was put forward, it became an essential tool not only for chemists and physicists, but for metallurgists as well. From Mendeleev's original periodic table, elements have been basically arranged by valence (groups in columns) and the repetition therein (periods in rows). Over the years and with discoveries in atomic structure, this schema has been adjusted and expanded, but not changed as a principle. The oldest periodic table is the short form table (columns I–VIII) by Dmitri Mendeleev, which shows secondary chemical kinships. H. G. Deming used the so-called long periodic table (18 columns) which appeared in the USA for the first time in 1923 (Wiley), and was the first to designate the first two and the last five main groups with the notation "A", and the intervening transition groups with the notation "B". The numeration was chosen so that the characteristic oxides of the B groups would correspond to those of the A groups. The iron, cobalt, and nickel groups were designated neither A nor B. The noble-gas group was originally attached (by Deming) to the left side of the periodic table. The group was later switched to the right side and usually labeled as group VIIIA. In the extended periodic table, suggested by Glenn T. Seaborg in 1969, yet unknown elements are included up to atomic number 218. Theoretical periods above regular period 7 are added. In the research field of superatoms, clusters of atoms have properties of single atoms of another element. It is suggested to extend the periodic table with a second layer to be occupied with these cluster compounds. The latest addition to this multi-story table is the aluminium cluster ion, which behaves like a multivalent germanium atom. Chemists should abandon numbering the groups in the Periodic Table, and to give the following descriptive names instead: • Monatomic nonmetals • Covalent nonmetals • Metalloids • Typical metals • Less typical metals • Transition metals with vertical similarity • Transition metals with horizontal similarity (iron, cobalt, nickel) • Transition metals with vertical and horizontal similarity (platinum group metals) • Inner transition metals: The lanthanides The actinides An advantage of this classification would be putting each member of a group in its logical position. Dr Anju Gupta, Dr Tripti Gangwar, Dr Anil Kumar, Dr Subhash Pd Singh and Dr Brameshwar and supporting staff of the Department extended full support to the workshop. The Principal of the college Dr Shashi Pratap Shahi appreciated the Chemistry Departmentt for organizing such an informative and useful lecture for the benefit of teachers and students. Students of MSc Semester-I & III in general enjoyed the lecture. - Faculty Members Department of Chemistry, A N College, Patna-13 .

  • Stable Isotopes of Cobalt Properties of Cobalt
    Stable Isotopes of Cobalt Isotope Z(p) N(n) Atomic Mass Natural Abundance Nuclear Spin Co-59 27 32 58.93320 100.00% 7/2- Cobalt was discovered in 1735 by Georg Brandt. Its name derives from the German word kobald, meaning "goblin" or "evil spirit." Minerals containing cobalt were used by the early civilizations of Egypt and Mesopotamia for coloring glass deep blue. Cobalt oxide is used today to add a pink or blue color to glass. It is also an important trace element in soils and necessary for animal nutrition. The most important modern use of cobalt is in the manufacture of various wear-resistant and superalloys. Its alloys have shown high resistance to corrosion and oxidation at high temperatures. Radioactive Cobalt-60 is used in radiography and in the sterilization of food. A silvery-white, shining, hard, ductile, somewhat malleable metal, cobalt is also ferromagnetic, with permeability two-thirds that of iron. It has exceptional magnetic properties in alloys. It is attached by dilute hydrochloric and sulfuric acids. It corrodes readily in air, and it has unusual coordinating properties, especially the trivalent ion. It is noncombustible except in powder form. Cobalt occurs in two allotropic modifications over a wide range of temperatures: the crystalline close-packed- hexagonal form is known as the alpha form, which turns into the beta (or gamma) form above 417 ºC. In finely powdered form, cobalt ignites spontaneously in air. Reactions with acetylene and bromine pentafluoride proceed to incandescence and can become violent. The metal is moderately toxic by ingestion. Inhalation of dusts can damage lungs.

  • An Alternate Graphical Representation of Periodic Table of Chemical Elements Mohd Abubakr1, Microsoft India (R&D) Pvt
    An Alternate Graphical Representation of Periodic table of Chemical Elements Mohd Abubakr1, Microsoft India (R&D) Pvt. Ltd, Hyderabad, India. [email protected] Abstract Periodic table of chemical elements symbolizes an elegant graphical representation of symmetry at atomic level and provides an overview on arrangement of electrons. It started merely as tabular representation of chemical elements, later got strengthened with quantum mechanical description of atomic structure and recent studies have revealed that periodic table can be formulated using SO(4,2) SU(2) group. IUPAC, the governing body in Chemistry, doesn‟t approve any periodic table as a standard periodic table. The only specific recommendation provided by IUPAC is that the periodic table should follow the 1 to 18 group numbering. In this technical paper, we describe a new graphical representation of periodic table, referred as „Circular form of Periodic table‟. The advantages of circular form of periodic table over other representations are discussed along with a brief discussion on history of periodic tables. 1. Introduction The profoundness of inherent symmetry in nature can be seen at different depths of atomic scales. Periodic table symbolizes one such elegant symmetry existing within the atomic structure of chemical elements. This so called „symmetry‟ within the atomic structures has been widely studied from different prospects and over the last hundreds years more than 700 different graphical representations of Periodic tables have emerged [1]. Each graphical representation of chemical elements attempted to portray certain symmetries in form of columns, rows, spirals, dimensions etc. Out of all the graphical representations, the rectangular form of periodic table (also referred as Long form of periodic table or Modern periodic table) has gained wide acceptance.

  • Stoichiometry: the Reaction of Iron with Copper(II) Sulfate
    CEAC 103 GENERAL CHEMISTRY Experiment 2 Stoichiometry: The Reaction of Iron with Copper(II) Sulfate Purpose: To enhance the understanding of stoichiometry, a reaction between iron and copper (II) sulfate solution will be conducted. This will help you to differentiate limiting and excess reactant in a chemical reaction. Finally the theoretical and percent yield of this reaction will be calculated. Theory Stoichiometry is the measurement of quantitative relationships in chemical formulas and equations. In this experiment stoichiometric principles will be used to obtain the appropriate equation between the reaction of iron metal and copper(II) sulfate solution. After the reaction is taking place, the formation of metallic copper, which is seen precipitating as a finely divided reddish-orange powder will be observed. This reaction is one of the example of single substitution reaction in which one element “displaces” from a compound by another element. The element which has ability of displacing other element from compound is said to be “more active” than the displaced metal. In this experiment, iron is more active than copper. Two distinct forms of iron are present, namely Fe2+ and Fe3+. Stoichiometric principles will be used to determine which reaction is more dominant compared to other one by examining the reaction between iron and copper (II) sulfate solution. If Fe2+ is formed, then equation (1) is dominant, while equation (2) will be selected if Fe3+ is formed. This can be determined 1 according to mole ratio of copper to iron. If the moles of copper is equal to the moles of iron, then equation (1) has taken place.

ANEHEIM Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering Chalmers University of Technology Abstract When uranium is used as fuel in nuclear reactors it both undergoes neutron induced fission as well as neutron capture. Through successive neutron capture and beta decay transuranic elements such as neptunium, plutonium, americium and curium are produced in substantial amounts. These radioactive elements are mostly long-lived and contribute to a large portion of the long term radiotoxicity of the used nuclear fuel. This radiotoxicity is what makes it necessary to isolate the used fuel for more than 100,000 years in a final repository in order to avoid harm to the biosphere.
