Periodic Table Organization
This is the line that divides the metals and nonmetals
What is the bold zig zag?
This tells us the number of protons and electrons in an atom
What is the atomic number?
These groups make up the S block
What are groups 1 and 2?
The family that forms a -1 ion
What are the halogens?
The element that has the largest Ionization energy
Li, Be, Mg, K
What is Be?
These are the 3 types of elements on the periodic table
What are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids?
The charge of a proton
What is +1?
These groups make up the P block
What are groups 13-18?
What are groups 3A-8A?
The family that has a varying number of valence electrons
What are the transition metals?
The element with the smallest atomic radius
Br, Cl, Se, S
What is Cl?
There are 18 of these on the periodic table
What are groups?
The charge of an electron
What is -1?
The number in front of the configuration tell us this
Ex: the 3 in 3s2
What is the electron shell?
OR
What is the period?
The family that is the most reactive metal
What are the alkali metals?
The element that has the largest electronegativity
He, I, Rb, Ne
What is I?
There are 7 of these on the periodic table
What are periods?
Where protons and neutrons exist
Where is the nucleus?
The electron configuration for Sodium (Na)
What is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1?
The family that forms a +3 ion?
What is the Boron Family?
OR
What is group 13/3A?
The element with the largest electronegativity on the table
What is Fluorine?
The periodic table is composed of mostly these types of elements
What are metals?
The only two particles that have mass in an atom
What are protons and neutrons?
The electron configuration for Sc
What is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d1?
The only family that does not form ions
What are the noble gases?
The reason why Noble Gases are excluded from the electronegativity trend
What is because they don't bond?
