C3 Part 1 - The Periodic Table
- PERIODIC TABLE
- The periodic table
- Atomic Number
- The number of protons in an atom of
an element
- Elements arranged
in order of increasing
atomic number
- Alkali metals - 1
- The more easily the outer
electron is lost, the more
reactive the Group 1 element is
- As you go down Group 1, electronic
shielding increases - this means the "pull" on
the outer electron from the nucleus is
reduced
- The outer electron is also further away
from the positive nucleus as you go down
the Group
- Density
- Density (gcm-3) = Mass(g)/Volume(cm3)
- Lithium - 0.53gcm-3
- Sodium - 0.97gcm-3
- Potassium - 0.86gcm-3
- Rubidium - 1.53gcm-3
- Lithium, Sodium and Potassium will all
float on water as their density is less
than water (1gcm-3)
- Low densities
- Soft
- Low melting and
boiling point
- As you go down Group 1
metals, the melting and
boiling point of the alkali
metals decrease
- Melting point
- Lithium - 180
- Sodium - 97.8
- Potassium - 63.5
- Rubidium - 38.9
- Caesium - 28.7
- Francium - 27
- Boiling point
- Lithium - 1330
- Sodium - 890
- Potassium - 774
- Rubidium - 688
- Caesium - 690
- Francium - 680
- Alkali metals - 2
- Alkali metals
reacting with air
(oxygen)
- Sodium + Oxygen --> Sodium Oxide
- 4Na+ + O2- > 2Na2O
- Alkali metals reacting with
halogens to form Alkali metal
Halides
- Sodium + Chlorine --> Sodium Chloride
- 2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl
- Alkali Metals and water
- Sodium + Water --> Sodium Hydroxide + Hydrogen
- 2Na + 2H2O --> 2NaOH + H2
- The Transition Elements
- Centre block of Periodic table
- High Densities, Hard, Strong
- Do not react vigorously with water
- Frequently used as catalysts
- The Halogens
- As you go up Group 7, the
reactivity increases
- Diatomic molecules formed
(F2/Cl2/Br2/I2)
- Weak intermolecular bonds
between the diatomic molecules
- Low Melting point
- Low Boiling point
- As you go down Group 7 the melting
and boiling point increase due to the
intermolecular bonding between the
molecules become stronger as you go
down Group 7
- Iron + Chlorine --> Iron Chloride
- Colour
- Fluorine - Pale Yellow
- Chlorine - Pale Green
- Bromine - Orange/Brown
- Iodine - Purple Vapour
- Organising the Elements
- Antoine Lavaiser
- Book
- Lists 33 elements
- Classifying them into
gases, metals,
non-metals and earths
- Stanislac Connizzaro
- Worked out
- Atomic weights and
listed them in a
scientific paper
- John Newlands
- 'Law of Octaves'
- Listed 56 elements in
order of increasing atomic
weight
- Every eighth
element had
similar properties
- Dmitri Mendeleev
- Published first
periodic table
- Elements in order of
atomic weights
- In groups of
similar properties
- Predicted the
elements that hadn't
been discovered yet
- Johann Dobreiner
- Announced findings
- Elements come in
groups of three
- Middle weight was and
average of the lighter
and heavier elements
- Alexandre Chancourtois
- Discovered
- Elements with
similar properties
occur at regular
intervals
- Lothar Meyer
- Graph
- Volume of atom
against atomic weight
- Noticed a pattern and
deduced a periodic table
