Title: THE PERIODIC TABLE
1THE PERIODIC TABLE
2HISTORY
3- Late 18th century Lavoisier's list of 28
elements - Early 19th century John Dalton's list of
approximately 60 elements - Döbereiner's "triads" of elements with related or
similar properties e.g., Ca, Sr and Ba - John Newlands "octaves" or groups of eight
elements after which properties seemed to repeat
Early History
4(Julius) Lothar Meyer (1830 1895)
German chemist who, independently of Dmitri
Mendeleev, developed a periodic classification of
the chemical elements. Though originally educated
as a physician, he was chiefly interested in
chemistry and physics.
5- Began working on his periodic table of the
elements in the late 1860s.
- Arranged the known 63 elements by their atomic
weights and organized them into groups possessing
similar properties.
- Where there were gaps, he correctly predicted the
properties for the undiscovered elements
(gallium, scandium and germanium).
DIMITRI MENDELEEV (1834-1907)
6Henry Moseley (1887-1915)
- Established the concept of atomic numbers.
- Showed that the ordering of the wavelengths of
the x-ray emissions of the elements coincided
with the ordering of the elements by atomic
number(1913).
- Developed periodic table based on atomic number.
7PERIODIC LAW
PROPERTIES OF ELEMENTS ARE PERIODIC FUNCTIONS
OF THEIR ATOMIC NUMBERS
8GLENN SEABORG (1912-1999)
- starting with plutonium in 1940, he discovered
all the transuranium elements from 94 to 102
- reconfigured the periodic table by placing the
actinide series below the lanthanide series
- in 1951, Seaborg was awarded the Nobel Prize in
chemistry for his work. Element 106 has been
named seaborgium (Sg) in his honor.

12Properties of Major Divisions
- Metals
- lusterous, shiny
- typically solids at room temperature (except Hg)
- good conductors of heat and electricity
- malleable and ductile
- tend to lose electrons easily (form cations)
13Properties of Major Divisions
- Nonmetals
- do not have a metallic luster
- poor conductors of heat and electricity
- may be solid, liquid or gas at room temperature
(majority are gases) - not malleable, not ductile
- tend to gain electrons (form anions)
14Properties of Major Divisions
Semi-metals (metalloids) have properties that are
intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
