STPM Chemistry Form 6 Notes – Terminology and Concepts: The Periodic Table (Part 1) The History of Periodic TableDöbereiner: Döbereiner’s Triads In 1817, Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner a German chemist (1780 – 1849) discovered that trends in certain properties of selected groups of elements and densities for some of these triadsfollowed a similar pattern. Newlands: Octave Law In 1865, John Alexander Reina Newlands an English chemist (1837 – 1898) devised a Periodic Table of elements arranged in order of their relative atomic masses and name it law of octaves. Law of octaves states that “any given element will exhibit analogues behaviour to the eighth element following it in the table“. Lothar Meyer: Atomic Volume of the Elements In 1870, Julius Lothar Meyer a German chemist (1836-1907) described 28 elements and arranged the atomic volume (relative mass/density) of the elements against their relative atomic masses where similar chemical and physical properties are repeated at periodic intervals. Meyer presented a series of maxima and minima curve. At the peaks of the curve, Meyer discovered that the most electropositive elements appeared at the peak (Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs). Mendeleev’s Periodic Table In 1869, Dimitri Mendeleev a Russian chemist (1836 – 1907) published the periodic table of all known elements and predicted several new elements to complete the table that formed the basis of the modern Periodic Table. The elements were arranged into Periods (horizontal rows)and Groups (vertical columns). The arrangement of the elements in groups of elements is in the order of their atomic weights corresponds to their valences. Mendeleev predicted new elements, namely eka-silicon (germanium), eka-aluminium (gallium), and eka-boron (scandium). Moseley: Proton Number In 1914, Henry Gwyn Jeffrey Moseley an English physicist (1887 – 1915) discovered the relationship between an element‟s X-ray wavelength and its atomic number (Z), Moseley demonstrated the arrangement by nuclear charge rather than related atomic mass. In Moseley‟s experiment the fast moving electrons strike a solid anode. From it, an X-ray spectrum is produced. Through this, Moseley‟s measurement of atomic numbers had an experimentally measurable basis and enable scientists to arrange the elements in the modern Periodic Table in order of increasing proton (atomic number). That‟s it for now on the history. Next part, you‟ll learn about the long and short periods, the „spdf‟ blocks, groups in the periodic table, atomic radius, ionic radius, electronegativity and ionisation energy of an atom. (Rather challenging, so make sure not to miss the next part only on Berry Berry Easy) STPM Chemistry Form 6 Notes – Terminology and Concepts: The Periodic Table (Part 2) The Modern Periodic Table The modern Periodic Table is constructed on the basis of the proton (atomic) numbers of the elements and their electronic configuration A) The short periods Period 1 – the 1s orbital is being filled. Period 2 – the 2s orbital is filled first, followed by the 2p orbital in the outermost shell (8 elements). Period 3 – the 3s orbital is filled first, followed by the 3p orbital in the outermost shell (8 elements). Period 4 – the 4s, 3d and 4p orbitals are involved in the outermost shell (18 elements). Period 5 – the 5s, 4d and 5p orbitals are involved in the outermost shell (18 elements). Period 6 – the 6s, 4f, 5d and 6p orbitals are involved in the outermost shell (32 elements) and one series known as the lanthanides. Period 7 – the 7s, 5f, 6d and 7p orbitals are involved in the outermost shell (increasing due to the discovery of new elements) and one series known as the actinides. B) The long periods C) The groups in the periodic table The s-block elements: Group 1 – general electronic configuration ns1. Group 2 – ns2. Group 13 – ns2np1. Group 14 – ns2 np2. Group 15 – ns2 np3. Group 16 – ns2 np4. Group 17 – ns2 np5. Group 18 – ns2 np6. Between Group 2 and Group 13 that the d orbitals are partially occupied. Lanthanides (15 elements) – 4f orbitals are partially filled and must have a 6s2. Actinides (15 elements) – 5f orbitals are partially filled and must have a 7s2. All actinide elements are radioactive. The p-block elements The d-block elements The f-block elements screening effect increase. the more difficult it is to remove an electron. Ionisation Energy of an Atom – measures of its tendency to lose electrons. If you cannot answer it. 4. Mg.

Atomic Radius – half the distance between the nuclei of the two closest atoms in an element. Screening effect does not affect much (same quantum shell). and the size of the atom decrease. Ionic Radius – measure of the size of an atoms ion in a crystal lattice.Some definitions 1. The greater the electronegativity of an atom. Cation is smaller than the corresponding metal atom and anion is larger than the corresponding nonmetal atom. Nuclear charge increase (stronger attraction between nucleus and electron cloud). ask yourself too.

M(g) –> M+(g) + e. Noble gases: no electron affinity. Left side: prefer to lose electrons. Si) are semi-conductor. 2. isn‟t it? Try and revise all the way from the first post on this chapter about the periodic table for STPM Chemistry Form 6. Across the periodic table (left to right) 1. Down the group in the periodic table. ΔH = fourth ionisation energy i) Factors affecting ionisation energy Distance of the outer electrons from the nucleus (atomic size) Size of the nuclear charge (nuclear charge) Screening effect of the electrons in the inner shells (screening effect) The first ionisation energy increase with increasing proton numbers for the elements (atomic size decreases. STPM Chemistry Form 6 Notes – Terminology and Concepts: The Periodic Table (Part 5 – Final) A) Electronegativity Electronegativity – measure how easy it is for an atom to gain electrons and how much an atom will pull electrons away from other atoms it has bonded to / covalent bond (similar to electron affinity but the difference is electron affinity deals with isolated atoms in the gas phase). All the valence electrons in non-metals are used to form covalent bonds between atoms and there are no mobile electrons in the structure. F. S. Ne and Ar are noble gases and have the stable octet electronic configuration and do not have any mobile electrons. 4.(g) + e –> O2. M+(g) –> M2+(g) + e. O. ionisation energy decreases because of the screening effect / shielding effect (electrons in low-energy levels repel electrons in higher-energy levels away from the nucleus) First ionisation energy of an element – the minimum energy required to remove 1 mol ofelectrons from 1 mol of atoms in the gaseous state. Ar) are non-conductors. Cl. the effective charge decrease). Electron affinity to be more negative. As result. Conductivity of metalloid increases with the increasing of temperature. P. Second electron affinity is endothermic: Example: O. 2. not much energy is released when these elements gain an extra electron. Electronegativity decreases.

ΔH = first ionisation energy Second ionisation energy of an element – the minimum energy required to remove 1 mol of electrons from 1 mol of unipositive ion in the gaseous state. First ionisation of Be (period 2) and Mg (period 3) is higher than expected because the first electron to be removed is from a fully filled s orbital. As result. 3. Down the periodic table . 1. B) Electron Affinity Electron affinity – the energy change that occurs when a gaseous atom picks up an extra electron. Electronegativity increases. a very high energy to be released. Across the periodic table (left to right) 1. Non-metals (C diamond. Ne. Right: elements want to gain electrons to be the nearest noble gas. Not so difficult as you though. 6. Density increases (but decreases for zinc). High melting points and boiling points (except Zn). Please revise previous parts in this series of notes if you want to understand the complete idea (for STPM level) on the periodic table. Effective nuclear charge remains almost. 1st and 2nd ionisation energies of the elements increase slightly (as the proton numbers increase) 3rd and 4th ionisation energies of the elements increase drastically. 2.Down the periodic table 1. C) Variation of the Period of d-block Element Across the periodic table – First series (left to right) 1. Elements want to gain electron less (shielding effect) Bottom: elements have less negative electron affinities. 5.
