Section 1 Arranging the Elements Objectives Describe how Mendeleev arranged elements in the first periodic table. Explain how elements are arranged in the modern periodic table. Compare metals, nonmetals, and metalloids based on their properties and on their location in the periodic table. Describe the difference between a period and a group.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements Discovering a Pattern In 1869, Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass. Periodic Properties of the Elements When the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic mass, those that had similar properties occurred in a repeating pattern. These repeating patterns are periodic, meaning that they happen at regular intervals.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements Discovering a Pattern, continued Predicting Properties of Missing Elements Mendeleev s arrangement had gaps in its pattern. Mendeleev predicted that elements yet to be found would fill these gaps. He also predicted the properties of the missing elements. By 1886, all of the gaps had been filled and Mendeleev s predictions were right.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements Changing the Arrangement A few elements properties did not fit in the pattern of Mendeleev s table. In 1914, British scientist Henry Moseley found the number of protons the atomic number in an atom. When the elements were arranged by atomic number, they fit the pattern in Mendeleev s table.

Section 1 Arranging the Elements The Periodic Table and Classes of Elements Elements are classified as metals, nonmetals, and metalloids, according to their properties. The number of electrons in the outer energy level of an atom is one characteristic that helps determine which category an element belongs in. The zigzag line on the periodic table can help you recognize which elements belong in which category.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements The Periodic Table and Classes of Elements, continued Metals are found to the left of the zigzag line. Atoms of most metals have few electrons in their outer energy level. Most metals are shiny, ductile, malleable, and are good conductors of electric current and thermal energy.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements The Periodic Table and Classes of Elements, continued Nonmetals are found to the right of the zigzag line. Atoms of most nonmetals have an almost complete set of electrons in their outer energy level. Nonmetals are not shiny, ductile, or malleable, and are poor conductors of electric current and thermal energy.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements The Periodic Table and Classes of Elements, continued Metalloids are the elements that border the zigzag line. Atoms of metalloids have about half of a complete set of electrons in their outer energy level. Metalloids have some properties of metals and some properties of nonmetals. Metalloids are also called semiconductors.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements Decoding the Periodic Table Each Element is Identified by a Chemical Symbol Each square on the periodic table includes an element s name, chemical symbol, atomic number, and atomic mass. For most elements, the chemical symbol has one or two letters. The newest elements have temporary three-letter symbols.
Section 1 Arranging the Elements Decoding the Periodic Table, continued Rows Are Called Periods Each horizontal row of elements is called a period. The chemical and physical properties of elements in a row follow a repeating pattern as you move across the period. Columns Are Called Groups Each vertical column of elements is called a group. Elements in the same group often have similar chemical and physical properties.
Section 2 Grouping the Elements Objectives Explain why elements in a group often have similar properties. Describe the properties of the elements in the groups of the periodic table.
Section 2 Grouping the Elements Group 1: Alkali Metals Alkali metals are elements in Group 1 of the periodic table. Alkali metal properties: group contains metals 1 electron in the outer level very reactive softness, color of silver, shininess, low density
Section 2 Grouping the Elements Group 2: Alkaline-Earth Metals Alkaline-earth metals are elements in Group 2. Alkaline-earth metal properties: group contains metals 2 electrons in the outer level very reactive, but less reactive than alkali metals color of silver, higher densities than alkali metals
Section 2 Grouping the Elements Group 3 12: Transition Metals Transition metals are in Groups 3 12. Some of the transition metals are shown below.
Section 2 Grouping the Elements Group 3 12: Transition Metals, continued Properties of Transition Metals vary widely but include: groups contains metals 1 or 2 electrons in the outer level less reactive than alkaline-earth metals shininess, good conductors of electric current and thermal energy
Section 2 Grouping the Elements Group 3 12: Transition Metals, continued Lanthanides and Actinides Some transition metals from Periods 6 and 7 appear in two rows at the bottom of the periodic table. Elements in the first row are called lanthanides and elements in the second row are called actinides.

Standardized Test Preparation Reading Read each of the passages. Then, answer the questions that follow each passage.
Standardized Test Preparation Passage 1 Napoleon III (1808 1873) ruled as emperor of France from 1852 to 1870. Napoleon III was the nephew of the famous French military leader and emperor Napoleon I. Early in his reign, Napoleon III was an authoritarian ruler. France s economy did well under his dictatorial rule, so the French rebuilt cities and built railways. Continued on the next slide
Standardized Test Preparation Passage 1, continued During the 1850s and 1860s, Napoleon III used aluminum dinnerware because aluminum was more valuable than gold. Despite his wealth and French economic prosperity, Napoleon III lost public support and popularity. So, in 1860, he began a series of reforms that allowed more individual freedoms in France.
