Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner
(1780 – 1849)
• He grouped similar elements with almost equal
atomic weights into groups of three or
TRIADS
Example:
(Br, I, Cl)
(Sr, Ca, Ba)
(Se, S, Te)

John A. Newlands
(1838 – 1898)
• He grouped all elements in the order of their
atomic weights.
• He then divided the elements into groups of
seven elements (noble gases were unknown at
that time)
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 8
Lothar Meyer
(1830 – 1895)
• He plotted a graph showing an attempt to
group elements according to atomic weights
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 9
Dmitri Mendeleev
(1834 – 1907)
• He arranged elements in the order of
increasing atomic weights.
• In this table, the first two periods had seven
elements each. The next periods contained
seventeen elements each.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 10
Dmitri Mendeleev
(1834 – 1907)
• The discovery of the inert gas during the 1890’s added and additional element to each period.
• He left spaces for elements that might someday be discovered.
• He studied the properties of the elements and predicted the properties would be discovered elements.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 11
Henry Moseley
(1877 - 1915)
• He used X-rays to determine the atomic number (proton) of the elements.
• X-rays are light radiation with high frequency and a short wave length.
• The higher the atomic number of the elements the shorter the wavelength of X-rays will be when the element is used as a target.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 12
Henry Moseley
(1877 - 1915)
• Resolved discrepancies in Mendeleev’s
arrangement
• He concluded that the elements should be
arranged in the order of increasing atomic
number
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 14
Periodic Law
• This law states that some of the physical and
many chemical properties of the elements are
periodic functions of their atomic numbers.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 15
The Periodic Table
• The Modern Periodic Table
– Elements listed in order of increasing atomic
number
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 16
The Periodic Table
• Group or Families
– a vertical column of elements
– contains elements with similar chemical properties
– these groups are divided into A and B subgroups.
– the group number in the A subgroup shows this number of
valence electron
Example:
Phosphorus belong to VA so its valence e- is 5
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 17
The Periodic Table
• Periods
– a horizontal row of elements
– designated by numbers 1-7 on the side of the periodic table
– elements are not related chemically
– the period number denotes the number of main energy level (shell) of the atom.
Example:
Sodium is in period 3 so its atom is composed of 3
shells and its outermost shell is the 3rd shell
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 19
The Periodic Table
• Metals
– Mostly solid except Hg which is liquid at room at
temperature
– Good electrical and thermal conductivity
– High density, high melting point and boiling point
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 20
The Periodic Table
• Metals
– Combine with non-metals to produce salts
– Do not combine with each other
– To the left of the stairstep line that in general
separates the metal and non-metals
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 22
The Periodic Table
• MetalsStairstep line separating metals
from non metal
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 23
The Periodic Table
• Non Metals
– Several exist as gases at room temperature
– Poor electrical and thermal conductivity
– Low density, low melting point and boiling point
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 24
The Periodic Table
• Non Metals
– Combine with metals to produce salts
– Some combine with each other
– To the right of the of the dark stairstep line that
separates the metals from non metals
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 26
The Periodic Table
• Non -Metals Stairstep line separating metals
from non metal
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 27
The Periodic Table
• Metalloids
– properties intermediate between those of
metals and nonmetals
Examples:
B, Al, Si, Sb, Sn, Po
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 28
Group or Families in Periodic Table
• Alkali metals – Group IA
• Alkaline Earth Metals – Group IIA
• Halogens – Group VIIA
• Boron Family – IIIA
• Carbon Family – IVA
• Nitrogen Family – VA
• Oxygen Family – VIA
• Noble Gases – VIIIA
• Group 0 – very stable configuration with 8 e- in the outermost shell except He.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 30
Blocks in Periodic Table
• Representative
Elements
• Noble Gases
• Transition Elements
• Inner Transition
Elements
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 31
Representative Elements
• The A subgroups IA through VIIA
• These elements, the outer energy level is
incomplete and the electrons are occupying s or p
orbitals.
• The electron configuration will be from ns1 to np5
(n is the period number)
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 32
Representative Elements
Example
a) Sodium (Na) at no. = 11, being 3 and & Group IA.
So Na would have one e- in the 3s orbital,
configuration in 3s1 with all lower orbitals being
completely filled.
b) Nitrogen (N) at no. 7, in the period 2 & in Group VA.
So N would have 2e- in the 2s orbitals and 3e- in the
2p3 with all lower orbital completely filled.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 33
Noble Gases
• Each elements in this group has a completely filled
set of s and p orbitals.
• The electron configuration for the outermost e- is
ns2, np6 (except He, ns2). This is very stable
configuration.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 34
Noble Gases
Example
Krypton (Kr), period 4, group VIIIA
Configuration is 4s2, 4p6 in the outermost energy
level.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 35
Transition Elements
• The series having a set of incomplete d orbitals.
• These elements are the B subgroups.
• In general, the outermost energy level here will have an ns2
configuration [except VIB and IB (ns1)].
• The outermost electron added to the electrons in the inner
incomplete d orbital corresponds to the group number in the
B subgroups (maximum is 8)
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 36
Transition Elements
Example
a) Iron (Fe)
- Period 4, group VIIIB
- Period 4, the last energy level is the 4th
- Group VIIIB, it has an inner incomplete d orbital in the 3rd
energy level (this d orbital are of one energy level lower).
b) In case of Chromium (Cr) group VIB, the configuration is 4s1, 3d5.
c) For copper (Cu) group IB, the configuration is 4s1, 3d10
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 37
Inner Transition Elements
• Two series of elements
– from 58 to 71 called the Lathanide series and belongs to period 6
– from 90 to 110 called Actinide series series and belongs to period 7
• In general, these elements have three incomplete energy levels since one electron enters an orbital before the set of orbitals begin filling
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 38
Inner Transition Elements
There are many exceptions to the order of filling of orbitals going across. Consider the following examples:
• Chlorine (Cl) is a representative element
• Manganese (Mn) is a transition element
• Magnesium (Mg) is a representative element
• Argon (Ar) is a noble gas
• Uranium (U) is an inner transition element

Periodic Properties and Periodic Trends
• Atomic size
• Ionization Energy
• Electron Affinity
• Electronegativity
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 41
Atomic Size
• The size of the atoms become bigger as the number
of shells increases.
• Going down any group in the table there is large
increase in atomic size.
• The increase in the number of energy levels causes
the increase in the atomic radius.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 42
Atomic Size
• Going across any period, there is a small but rather
decrease in size of the atomic radius.
• As the atomic number increases, the nuclear charge
becomes greater.
• Each electron is attracted towards the nucleus
making it closer to the nucleus causing the decrease
in the atomic radius
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 44
Atomic Size
Example
Using the periodic table, arrange the following elements in order of decreasing atomic size: Br, Sr, Sn, I, Cs, Ba.
Solution:
Going down the group and across the period the order is Cs, Ba, Sr, Sn, I, Br
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 46
Ionization Energy
• The amount of energy required to remove an
electron from an atom.
• Going down the group in the table, the ionization
energy decreases from one atom to the next.
• Going across a period, there is a general increase of
ionization energy.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 48
Ionization Energy
Example:
Choose the one with the highest ionization energy: Na, Al, Cl, Br
Solution:
Cl – since this has the smallest atomic size (that is the valence electron is closer to the nucleus) ionization energy is highest.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 49
Electron Affinity
• The amount of energy released when an electron is
added to an atom.
• Going down a group of non-metals such as halogen
(Group VIIA) the electron affinity decreases.
• Going across the period such as from nitrogen to
oxygen to flourine, the electron affinity increases.
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 51
Electronegativity
• It is defined as the tendency of that atom to attract
electrons toward itself
• Going down a group electronegativity decreases
• Going down across the period electronegativity
increases
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 52
Electronegativity
• Low electronegativity is characteristic of metals
• The lower electronegativity are found at the lower left of the
Periodic Table.
• High electronegativity is a characteristic of non-metals.
• Fluorine is the most electronegative element. Oxygen is the
second.
• The electronegativity ranges 2.2 to 4.0
Engr. Yvonne Ligaya F. Musico 54
Electronegativity
Example:
Arrange the following elements in order of increasing electronegativity: Ba, Br, I, Sn, Sr
Solution:
Looking at position in the periodic table including the group and period, gives the following order.
Ba, Sr, Sn, I, Br
Electronegativity ranges between 1.8 & 2.1
