The Periodic Table
Honors Chemistry - Krug
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Democritus | Atomos - the smallest particle of an element that retains the properties of that element |
| Lavoisier | Law of Conservation of Mass - the total mass of the products is the same as the total mass of the reactants |
| Proust | Law of Definite Proportions - any chemical compound has a constant mass ratio of its elements |
| Dalton | Ato T All elements are composed of atoms; Atoms cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction; All atoms of an element are identical to the others, but different from atoms of other elements; All compounds have a constant ratio of atoms of element |
| Thomson | Discovered the electron; plum pudding model |
| Milikan & Fletcher | Oil Drop Experiment |
| Rutherford | Gold Foil Experiment; discovered protons |
| Bohr | Electrons are found in energy |
| Chadwick | Neutrons and protons are in the nucleus; neutrons have the same mass as protons |
| Atomic Number | How many protons and electrons |
| Atomic Mass | Atomic Mass-Atomic Number=# of neutrons |
| Mendeleev | Created the first periodic table; Eka-silicon - germanium, discovered it; Periodic Law - elements have patterns when listed in order |
| Dobereiner | Triads |
| Newlands | Law of Octaves |
| Meyer | Classified 28 elements by weight |
| Rows | Periods |
| Columns | Groups |
| Group 1 | Alkali Metals |
| Group 2 | Alkali Earth Metals |
| Group 16 | Oxygen Group (Chalcogens) |
| Group 17 | Halogens |
| Group 18 | Noble gases |
| Metals | Left of stair-step line |
| Nonmetals | Right of stair-step line |
| Metalloids | Touching stair-step line |
| Representative Elements | Follows patterns well; Groups 1, 2, 13-18 |
| Transition Metals | Not as predicable, non-reactive; Groups 3-12 |
| Inner Transition Metals | Lanthanides (La-Lu) and Actinides (Ac-Lr) |
| Diatomic Elements | In pairs in pure elemental form; 02, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2, N2, H2 |
