The study of elements continue


Its periodic
Get it?
* I can identify the four chemical groups of the
periodic table.

* I can label the four chemical groups on the


periodic table.

*
* Each horizontal row of the periodic table is
known as a period.
* Vertical rows groups.
* Elements in the same chemical family have
similar physical and chemical properties. They
are arranged in vertical columns.

*
* DOES NOT INCLUDE HYDROGEN !!
* They are highly reactive and the reactivity
increases going down the group
* React with water and oxygen
* Soft metals that can be cut with a knife

*
Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Fr
* They are LESS reactive than alkali metals
* Produce bright flames and are used in
fireworks
* React with water, but not as vigorous as alkali

*
Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra
* Non-metals that are highly reactive!
* Fluorine and chlorine are gases at room temperature
* Bromine is a liquid
* Iodine is a solid
* Astatine is very rare, there hasnt been enough
collected to study it

*
F, Cl, Br, I, At
* They are the most stable and unreactive elements
* At room temperature, they are:
* Colourless
* Odourless
* Gases

*
He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Rn
* Which family of metals contains elements that
are soft enough to cut?
* Which family of metals if used in fireworks?
* Which chemical family contains elements that
at room temp. are solids, liquids, and gases?
* List two properties of the elements in the noble
gas family.
* Explain the difference between atomic number
and atomic mass.
