These rows have the same number of energy levels or shells and chemical properties are NOT all similar.
What are periods?
These elements have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
What are Metalloids?
This is the basic unit of chemical element
Atoms
These vertical columns have chemical properties that are VERY similar.
What are Groups or Families?
These group is the most reactive especially with water
What is alkali metals; group 1?
These elements have no luster (dull), are brittle (breaks easily), and are a poor conductor of heat.
What are nonmentals?
These elements are solid at room temperature (except mercury), have a shiny luster, are ductile(bend into a wire), and malleable.
What are metals?
