7.1.1 The table as a series of vertical Groups and horizontal periods.
Rows of the Periodic table are called Periods
Columns of the Periodic table are called Groups
Read Chemistry For Youpg. 43
What is interesting however is that:
- The number of electronsin the outer shell gives us the Group NumberSo all the elements, whose atoms have the same number of electrons in their outer shell, are grouped together.
- The number of electron shellsgives us the Period Number.

7.1.2 The areas of the table, which contain reactive metals, transition
metals, characteristic non-metals, and the noble gases.
You should be able to identify these areas on an outline of the periodic table.
I suggest you learn them well ok!!!
See the periodic table on GCSE Chemistry pg. 40
See the periodic table on Chemistry for You pg. 43 and pg. 392
Work out Chemistry For You pg. 49 numbers 1, 5.
pg. 73 number 1
7.1.3 The noble gases as an unreactive group.
Group 8 is also called Group 0 or the Noble Gas group. All the elements in this group
have a full outer shell.So, they have no desire to lose or gain electrons so they are very stable and are very
unreactiveas a group.
Until about 40 years ago it was believed that they never reacted. We now know that they
form some compounds, e.g. xenon tetrafluoride, XeF4
Some uses of the Noble gases (Revision Form 3) rely on their unreactivity
Noble Gas Use
Helium Balloons and airships less dense than air
Neon Filling advertising tubes
Argon Filling electric light bulbs, inert atmosphere
for welding
Krypton and xenon Lighthouse and projector bulbs. Lasers
Radon Killing cancerous tumours

7.1.4 Relating the Group number / electron configuration
to metallic / non- metallic character.
Elements of group 1, 2, 3 that give away1, 2 and 3 electrons respectively are the metals.
Elements of groups 6, 7 that accept 2 and 1 electrons respectively are the non-metals.
7.1.5 The metalloids (e. g. silicon and germanium).
Read Chemistry for You pg. 48
The metalloids are not as good a set of conductorsas the metals, but they are better conductors
than the nonmetals. Many of them are known assemiconductors
. Also, unlike the metals, whichbecome better conductors at low temperatures, the metalloids become better conductors at highertemperatures. Because of their unique electrical conductivity, the metalloids have drawn a lot of
attention from the computer and electronics industries.
When involved in chemical bonding, the metalloids again exhibit middle-of-the-road qualities.
They are capable of taking electrons from most metalsand willreadily lose electronsto most
nonmetals. Their electronegativity values are also mid-range. So it is unlikely for them to beinvolved in ionic bonding. They will usually establish covalent bonding when found in
compounds.

As you can note after drawing the missing electrons, the number of electrons increases as you moveto the right of the period. (In reality note that the radius of the atom becomes a bit smaller)
This is what causes the change in the properties of the elements as you move across a period.
7.3 Trends down typical metallic groups
Group 1 Metals Group 1 elements all have one electron in the outer shell or energy level.
Group 1 contains very reactive metals including
lithium, sodium and potassium.
They are so reactive that they have to be stored in oil
to prevent them from reacting with the air.
If a new group 1 element
was discovered which 2 of
these properties would it have?
It would be a metal with high melting and boiling point.
It would be a metal with low melting and boiling point.
It would be a gas with low melting and boiling point.
It would react with water to form an alkaline solution. It would react with water to form an acidic solution and hydrogen.
How the number of
electrons changes
across a period
GROUP NUMBER
These are nottypical metals
because they tendto be soft and light.They also have lowmelting and boiling
points.

Lets take sodium as an example. A sodium atom has 11 protons in the nucleus surrounded by11 electrons.
The smaller an atom, the closer its outer electron is to the nucleus, and the more difficult it is to
remove. This is because there is a strong attractive force on it from the positive protons in the
nucleus.
As you go down the group, the size of the atoms increases and the outer electron gets further
away from the nucleus and therefore becomes easier to remove.
This means that as you go down the group, the reactivity increases.
This trend shows that asyou go down Group 1, theelements become morereactive.
Remember, all Group 1elements have just oneelectron in their outer
energy level.
When they react they losethis electron. By doing this,they obtain a full outerenergy level. They becomemore stable because theynow have the electronstructure of a noble gas.
When the sodium atom reactsand becomes a sodium ion, itloses one electron.
There are now 11 protons inthe nucleus surrounded by 10electrons, so the overallcharge on the ion will be 1+.
The sodium ion is written asNa+. Na+ is a positive ion.
The outer shell is full, so theion is stable.

Group 2 Metals Group 2 elements all have one electron in the outer shell or energy level.
Harder then Group 1
Silvery-grey
Good conductors
Burn in air to form the oxides.
Less reactive than their neighbor Group 1 Metals
In group 2 we find magnesium and calcium.
Both are metals. But calcium is more reactive than magnesium. (as it has more shells).
Calcium reacts steadily with cold water. It falls to the bottom, giving off hydrogen and forming
calcium hydroxide. Calcium hydroxide is slightly soluble in water. So the solution becomes cloudy
due to the formation of undissolved calcium hydroxide.
Calcium (s) + Water (l) Calcium hydroxide (aq) + Hydrogen (g)
_________________________________________________________________________________
Calcium reacts vigorously with acids.
Calcium (s) + Hydrochloric acid (aq) Calcium Chloride (aq) + Hydrogen (g)
________________________________________________________________________
Magnesiumreacts slowly with water, fast with steam and fast with acids.
A piece of clean magnesium ribbon is placed in water and a test tube full of water is inverted over it. It
takes several days to collect some hydrogen gas in the test tube.
Magnesium (s) + Water (l) Magnesium hydroxide (aq) + Hydrogen (g)
________________________________________________________________________
Magnesium reacts vigorously with steam. Steam is passed over the heated magnesium. The Magnesium
reacts by glowing white and forms white magnesium oxide powder. Hydrogen is formed which can be
lighted at the opening of the glass tubing.
Magnesium (s) + Steam (l) Magnesium hydroxide (aq) + Hydrogen (g)

How does the blast furnace work?
The Blast Furnaceis a large steel structure about 30 metres high. It is lined with refractoryfirebricks that can
withstand temperatures approaching 2000o
C. The furnace gets its name from the method that is used to heat it.Pre-heated air at about 1000
oC is blasted into the furnace through nozzles near its base. The largest Blast
Furnaces in the UK produce around 60 000 tonnes of iron per week. The largest on in Europe, has produced upto 11 000 tonnes per day (77 000 tonnes per week) but is currently running at 8000 tonnes per day. This is
equivalent to all the iron needed for about 5 cars every minute.
Refining iron
The metal that leaves the Blast Furnace contains between 4% and 5% of carbon. This much carbon makesa very hard but brittle metal which is not much use. The next step in the production of steel is to reduce
the levels of carbon and other impurity elements in the hot metal.

Make sure you know:The principle of extraction from haematite in the Blast furnace, including function of limestone
in removing main impurity.
- uses of pig iron and steel related to thedifference in their physical properties.
- Revise rusting and its prevention (its theopposite of what happens in the blastfurnace)
Pig iron is an alloy containing about 3% carbon with
varying amounts of S, Si, Mn, and P. It is hard,
brittle, fairly fusible, and is used to produce other
alloys, including steel.
Steelis a mixture of iron and carbon. The amount of
carbon may range from 01% to 15% giving steels of
different properties. Steel is used to make
machinery, tools, cars, large girders and bridges.
Oxidation Oxidation Is Loss of electrons
Reduction Reduction Is Gain of electrons OIL RIG (see Chem 4 U pg. 115)
Iron and Copper - both are transition metals.
Iron (II) compounds are green. Copper (I) compounds are redIron (III) compounds are brown. Copper (II) compounds are blue.
Iron exhibits a valency of 2 and 3
e.g. Iron(II)sulphate FeSO4and iron(III)sulphate Fe2(SO4)3
Copper exhibits a valency of 1 and 2
e.g. Copper (I) chloride CuCl and Copper(II)chloride CuCl2And copper(I)sulphate Cu2SO4 and copper(II)sulphate CuSO4.
To make Iron (II) chloride, iron is reacted with hydrochloric acid or hydrogen chloride ispassed over heated iron.
Fe (s) + 2HCl (aq) FeCl2(aq) + H2(g)
Fe (s) + 2HCl (g) FeCl2(s) + H2(g)
To make Iron (III) chloride, iron is reacted with chlorine. The Iron is heated to start the
reaction: 2Fe (s) + 3Cl2 2FeCl3 (s)
When you convert and iron(II) compound into an iron (III) compound, you are oxidizing iron (II)
into Iron (III).Fe++ - e- Fe+++ oxidising is loosing electrons

++Reduction is gaining electrons
You can use oxidising agents like sulphur dioxide and hydrogen sulphide. When you bubble
sulphur dioxide through iron (II) compound solution, the brown solution turns to pale green.
Copper will react with oxygen in the air to form copper(II) oxide.
copper + oxygen copper(II) oxide.2Cu(s) + O2(g) 2CuO(s)
Reaction of copper with acids
Copper metal dissolves in hot concentrated sulphuric acid to form solutions containing the
aquated Cu(II) ion together with hydrogen gas, H2.
Cu(s) + H2SO4(aq) Cu2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + H2(g)

All the halogens:
Are coloured and become darker as you go down the group
Are found as molecules and form molecular (covalent) compounds with other non metals
like hydrogen e.g HCl. With Hydrogen the hydrogen halides are formed, they dissolve in
water to form acidic solutions (pH < 7) e.g. H2(g) + Cl2 (g) 2HCl (aq)
The molecules are diatomic (2-atom) molecules, namely Br2, F2, Cl2, I2,
Reactions with water:
Chlorinereacts with water to form 2 acids hydrochloric acid and hypochlorous acid (bleach)
Cl2 (g) + H2O (l) HCl (aq) + HOCl (aq)
Bromineis less acidic than chlorine.
Iodineis weaker still. (almost insoluble in water but made soluble in the presence of potassium
iodide solution KI)
Reactions with Group I and II metals:
The others react in more or less the same way.

Reactions with Iron
When iron wool is heated with chlorine, the iron glows brightly, and reacts vigorously to
produce a brown smoke. Brown iron chloride is left behind.
2Fe (s) + 3Cl2(g) 2FeCl3
When iron is heated with Iodine the iron glows even less brightly than with bromine, but brownsmoke and brown iron iodide are left behind.
Bleaching effect on water containing an indicator;
Chlorine bleaches damp litmus and is very reactive. Chlorine reacts with water, forming
hypochlorous acid.
Cl2(g) + H2O (l) HOCl (aq) + HCl (aq)
Hypochlorous acid is a very reactive compound that readily give sup its oxygen to the dye, to
form a colourless compound.
HOCl (aq) + dye or indicator HCl + (dye + O colourless)
The product must then be thoroughly washed to remove HCl or it will be attacked by the free
acid.o Bromine is also a bleaching agent but not as rapid as chlorine.
o Iodine does not bleach.
Displacement Reactions If chlorine is bubbled into a solution of potassium bromide, then the
less reactive halogen, bromine, is displacedby the more reactive halogen, chlorine.
2KBr (aq) + Cl2(g) 2KCl (aq) + Br2(aq)
Chlorine gives salts called
chlorides.
Bromine gives salts called
bromides. Work out GCSE Chemistry pg. 48
