The periodic table of the chemical elements is a tabular method of displaying the chemical elements, first devised in 1869 by the Russian . Mendeleev intended the table to illustrate recurring ("periodic") trends in the properties of the elements. The layout of the table has been refined and extended over , as many new elements have been discovered, and new theoretical models have been developed to explain chemical behavior.

Groups

A , also known as a family, is a vertical column in the periodic table of the elements. Groups are considered the most important way of classifying the elements. In some groups, the elements have very similar properties and exhibit a clear trend in properties down the group — these groups tend to be given trivial (non-scientific) names, e.g. the alkali , and noble . Some other groups in the periodic table display fewer similarities and/or vertical trends (for example Groups 14 and 15). Modern quantum mechanical theories of atomic structure explain that elements within the same group have the same configurations in their shell, which is the largest factor in accounting for their similar chemical properties.

Periods

A is a horizontal row in the periodic table of the elements. Although groups are the most common way of classifying elements, there are some regions of the period table where the horizontal trends and similarities in properties are more significant than vertical group trends. This can be true in the d-block (or "transition metals"), and especially for the f-block, where the lanthanoids and actinoids form two substantial horizontal series of elements.

Chemical Elements: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_element More expensive than A , or element for short, is a type of that is defined by its ; that is, by the number of in its nucleus. The term is also used to refer to a pure chemical substance composed of with the same number of protons.

Common examples of elements are , , and . In total, 118 elements have been observed as of 2010, of which 98 occur naturally on . Elements with Three forms atomic numbers greater than 82 (i.e., and those above), are inherently unstable and undergo . In addition, elements 43 and 61 ( and ) have no stable , and also decay. The decay is so long however it has yet to be determined experimentally. However, even the elements up to atomic number 94 with no stable nuclei are nevertheless found in , as a result of the natural decay processes of and . TarnishTarnish silver

3 402 Elements, symbols and the Periodic Table 05.2015 Dmitri Mendeleev (1869)

In 1869 Mendeleev and Lothar Meyer (Germany) published nearly identical classification schemes for elements known to date. The periodic table is base on the similarity of properties and reactivities exhibited by certain elements. Later, Henri Moseley ( England, 1887-1915) established that each elements has a unique atomic number, which is how the current periodic table is organized.

The way the periodic table is usually presented is a compressed view, placing the and at the bottom of the stable. The Periodic Table can be arrange by subshells. The s-block is Group IA and & IIA, the p-block is Group IIIA - VIIIA. The d-block is the transition metals, and the f-block are the Lanthanides and metals
