Classification of Elements January 9, 2009
Objectives Describe characteristics of metals, nonmetals, and metalloids Define period, periodic law, family, malleable, ductile Describe how elements are arranged on the periodic table

Henry Mosley (1914) Determined that each  atom  has a unique number of positive charges.  Discovered isotopes Rearranged Mendeleyev’s table by their atomic number
Periodic Law Because properties of elements repeated in an orderly way, it was called  periodic .  Properties of elements are a function of their atomic numbers. 
Elements are arranged: Vertically into   Groups or Families Horizontally Into   Periods
Electrons in the outer most energy level of an atom are called ________ electrons . A. valence B. oxidation C. superior D. bonding
Every element in a  family  has the same number of  valence   electrons
The  group 2  atoms all have  2 valence electrons Be (Beryllium) Atom Mg (Magnesium) Atom
Starting at the left of each period, the pattern of valence electrons is A.  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 B.  0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 C.  0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1  D.  4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4
Each atom has the same number of electron  shells .
The  period 4  atoms each have  4 electron   containing shells K (Potassium)  Atom Fe (Iron) Atom Kr (Krypton)  Atom 4 th  Shell
Metals shiny (they have luster) solids at room temperature good conductors  malleable  - capable of being hammered out into thin sheets  ductile  - drawn out into wire or threads
Located to the left of the zigzag line Most elements are metals Usually have few valence electrons
Non-metals Can be found as solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature  Typically dull and brittle  Poor conductors All non-metals except hydrogen are found on the right side of the zigzag line Many valance electrons
Metalloids Border both sides of the zigzag line each has some of the properties of a metal and non metal can become good conductors under certain conditions such as high temperatures Also called semiconductors
The British scientist who rearranged the periodic table according to the atomic numbers of elements A. JJ Thomson B. Henry Moseley C. Ernest Rutherford
The periodic law states that the physical and chemical properties are periodic functions of their A.  valences B.  atomic mass C.  atomic numbers D.  atomic size
