Back – divide page; draw lines in with a ruler.

Back – Notes - Upper left cornerDo not write in large letters or you won’t have enough space.

• Columns –

–Elements have similar but not identical properties.• Elements in a family have the same number of

valence e-

# 1 – 18 (Groups or Families)

Back – Notes - Upper left corner

• Rows – –Elements in a period are not alike in

properties.– The period reflects how many energy

levels are present for that row of elements. (Period 1 = 1 energy level)

–Pattern – (left to right)• 1st column (left) very reactive elements• Last column (right) always an unreactive

gas• Going left to right – elements become less

metallic.

# 1 – 7 (Periods)

Front - Metals/Nonmetals

• Box in the Nonmetals• Use a ruler to draw a line to

delineate the metals. If the line is present, write in the title – Metals.

• Title both the Metals & Nonmetals

• Title the

RARE EARTH ELEMENTS at the bottom of the table.

Back – (lower left box for notes)

• Metals – (95 of the 118 elements) left side

of the table– Properties: luster, ductility, malleability, good

conductors of heat & electricity; corrode – react chemically• Valence of 1, 2, 3, 4 e- – tend to lose

electrons

(Notes – under “Metals”)

• Nonmetals – (right side of the table)–Properties: no luster – dull, do not

conduct heat or electricity, brittle – break easily, not ductile or malleable.• Valence # of 5, 6, 7, or 8 - will

gain 3, 2, or 1 e-

Front - • Filling in the atomic squares:• The following slide shows where you

will be placing the information contained in the squares.

• We will be adding one component of the table at a time. Ex. All the atomic #’s.

• Please note the precautions before beginning.

Precautions: Consider everything that will be put into the square. Don’t write too large.

Front - #104 - 118

• Add names of elements 104 – 118 to the squares. (On the next slide.)

• Write neatly & small.

• Do not cross out the name that is there (Messy!) – just write the new name under the old name.

• In the lower left hand corner make a key for the chemical symbols.

Front

• As the teacher says the element, then its symbol, write in the symbols for each element into its appropriate square. Use the appropriate color for the state of the element at “normal” earth temperatures.

– Don’t make your symbols too big.

–Remember: First letter is always a capital. Other letters – lower case.

This is where to place your Atomic Symbols.

Back - Notes

• On the lower left hand side – write in the notes for Metalloids & Rare Earth Elements.

Metalloids: (both sides of the zigzag line on the table)

• Properties: metalloids have the prop’s of both metals & nonmetals.– Solids can be dull or shiny (luster).– Will conduct heat or electricity but not as

well as metals.

Transition Metals & Rare Earth Elements:

• Families 3 – 12– Form alloys easily

• Lanthanide Series – (Period 6)– Soft, high luster & conductivity– Used in industry for high quality glass

& alloys

(Rare Earth Elements: Transition Metals)

• Actinide Series – (Period 7)– All are radioactive– All (except for the 1st four) are man

made in laboratories.– The best known is Uranium – used for

fuel in nuclear reactors.

Front – Atomic Masses

• Write in the atomic masses of each element – in the center bottom of the square, under the chemical symbol.)– Be careful- some of the numbers are

long. They need to fit into to the squares.

– Remember to write above the lines. You will need to add color to the squares.

Atomic Mass

Some masses are 8 digits long. (F)Listen carefully & record the data as the masses are read to you.

Front - Radioactivity

• Add a symbol/key for radioactivity at the bottom of the table. (Under # 114)

- Radioactive

• An orange star or dot is good. • Place a star in each element’s square that

is radioactive. (Upper left hand corner of the square.)

• There are 36 elements that are radioactive (117 & 118 probably will be).

Put a star into the following squares. These elements are radioactive.

• #’s 43, 61, • 84 to 118

Color coding the Families of the Periodic Table

• We will make a key for the color coding of the table.

• Color each family on the front.– Color the inside edges of each box the

appropriate color.– Be careful NOT to color over any of the data

for the square.• Take notes about the family on the back

right side.• We will do one family at a time.

Front – Add the Families Key under the title – P. T. of E’s; center-left, above the metals line.

Families:

Alkali Metals Metalloids Alkaline Earth Metals Nonmetals Transition Metals Halogens Other Metals Noble Gases

Notes (back, right side.)

Title: FAMILIES/GROUPS

• Precautions:– You will need to be careful not to write too

large. You will be using most of this space. – Write the names of the families in regular

pencil. Underline in the family’s color to code.

– Use your ruler to add the color to the inside edges of the atomic squares – neater & faster.

Front - Add brown to the inside edges of the Alkali Metal family

• Alkali Metals

–Family # 1 – all except Hydrogen• 6 squares – Lithium down to

Francium

Notes (back, right side.) Write the names of the families in regular pencil. Underline in the family’s color to code.

Title: FAMILIES/GROUPS

Alkaline Earth Metals – all of family # 2- Beryllium down to Radium

- 6 squares

Notes (back, right side – under Alkali Metals)

reactive as family 1. (Lose electrons)– never found uncombined in nature - exist

in bonded compounds.

Front - Add pink to the inside edges of the Transition Metals family

Transition Metals– all of families # 3 - 12

- All of the Rare Earth elements

lost or shared.– Properties similar to metals yet different;

“unpredictable”, good conductors.

• Other Metals – • 12 Elements (EVERY THING but Ge

and Sb)• Al, Ga, In, Tl, Pb, Bi, Po, Sn, Uut,

(Boron is a metalloid but the other elements

in this family are “other” metals.– Aluminum – most abundant metal; 3rd

most abundant element in Earth’s crust

Front - Add green to the inside edges of the Nonmetals family

• 6 elements

• # 6 Carbon• # 7 Nitrogen• # 8 Oxygen• # 15 Phosphorus• # 16 Sulfur• # 34 Selenium

Notes (back) – Carbon is a nonmetal but the other elements in this family are metalloids or other metals.

• Carbon – (Family 14) 4 valence e-– Carbon is the basis for life; makes carbon

compounds like sugars & starches.– Silicon – (a metalloid) second most

abundant element in Earth’s crust.• Used for glass, cement, electronics

Notes (back) – Another family with a mixture of types.

• Nitrogen – (Family 15) 5 valence e- – tend to share e-– N = 78% of the Earth’s atmosphere– Used for fertilizers, explosives, medicines,

dyes

(Notes - back)

• Oxygen – (Family 16) 6 valence e-– Most e- are shared– Most abundant element in Earth’s crust– 2nd most abundant element in the

atmosphere– Combines with almost every other element.– O3 = ozone; Earth’s protective layer of the

atmosphere

• Front - Add gold or dark yellow to the inside edges of the Halogen family.

because their valence levels are full.– All found in small amounts in Earth’s

atmosphere.

Finishing the Periodic Table

• Make sure all of the information in the squares is accurate & legible.

• You will be graded on neatness (legibility) & completeness on both sides.
