The periodic table is composed of eighteen columns and seven horizontal rows, with two additional rows underneath. There is grand total of 112 elements in the periodic table, each of which is placed in a designated spot on the table and cannot be moved. Different areas on the table have elements that are made of different components. Elements that are in the same column are more similar than elements in the same horizontal row. Seventy five percent of the table is made up of metals, and a couple of the columns on the right of the table have gases. There are only two elements that are liquids- mercury and bromine. Column 1 contains the alkali metals, which suddenly combust when exposed to air or water. Columns 3-12 are the transition metals, which contain heavier atoms, which are more flexible in how they organize their electrons. Column 17 is made up of the more reactive gases- the halogens. The noble gases are in column 18. The electrons are the most significant part of an atom. When atoms don’t have the sufficient number of electrons they need in their outer level, they will do whatever they can to get the number they need. The number of protons an atom has is its atomic number. The atomic number plus the number of neutrons the atom has is the atom’s atomic weight.…
1. A newer form of the periodic table has been established, but is not universally used at this time. Go to http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/67938/description/Periodic_table_gets_some_flex and read the article to answer the following questions:…
In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged from left to right in rows, called periods, by increasing atomic number, and from top to bottom in columns, called groups, based on similar chemical properties.…
Background: Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev is generally credited as being the first chemist to observe patterns emerge when the elements are arranged according to their properties. Mendeleev’s arrangement of the elements was unique because he left blank…
The periodic table displays the symbols and _______ the elements along with information about the structures of their _______. The Group 1A elements are called _______, and the Group 2A…
Dmitri Mendeleev created the periodic table on March 6, 1869 (almost 100 years, to the day, before my birthdayJ) based on the atomic weights of the elements. Many elements were missing then, but he left spaces for them because he thought one day they might be discovered. Now the periodic table is arranged by the element’s atomic number and many other trends from it can provide valuable information to scientists. When information is arranged in a certain order it is called periodicity. Your assignment is to create your own periodic table using periodicity and similar trends as found in the modern periodic table.…

Dmitri Mendeleev’s Periodic table is based on atomic weight, whereas, the modern periodic table keeps the atomic number as the base. An atomic table arranges elements from left to right in a row with the atomic number and properties gradually changing. The elements on the next row will actually exhibit similar properties as the ones above or below it. This provides an example of the periodicity nature of the elements. The columns of different elements in a period have the same or very similar properties. The properties of the elements change gradually as the columns move down through the periodic table. Atoms in similar families, such as H2S and H2O, exhibit both similar properties and molecular structure. This shows periodicity in both the molecules and the individual atoms.…

The current periodic table lists 109 elements. It is arranged according to the periodic law; elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, their physical and chemical properties show a periodic pattern. Elements that have similar properties are arranged in groups or families in vertical columns, the horizontal rows are called periods.…

The elements are arranges due to their atomic weight, exhibiting an evident stepwise variation of properties. Chemically analogous elements have similar atomic weights or increase by equal increments. Within the period each elemtens reacts differently with a solution that it could be put in. This is due to either what group or period it is in and periodic trends also affect this. Whether the element is metallic or non metallic the elements differ. Metallic elements have higher atomic weight and radius while non-metallic have high electronegativity and ionization trends. With each being so different we tested each element given and saw what happened when dropped into a certain solution to determine how periodic trends related to this…
