Elements of the Periodic Table: Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids

Explore the three main groups on the periodic table - Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids (Semi-Conductors). Discover the characteristics, properties, and applications of each group, including Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Lanthanides, Actinides, Halogens, and Noble Gases. Learn about their reactivity, valence electrons, and unique features.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Periodic Table Groups Ch.19, Sec.1

  2. Groups • 3 main groups: • Metals • Nonmetals • Metalloids (Semi-Conductors)

  3. Metals • Middle and left of table • Conductors • Shiny solids • Malleable (bendable)

  4. Special Metal Groups • Alkali Metals • Alkaline Earth Metals • Transition Metals • Lanthanides • Actinides

  5. Alkali Metals • Group (column) 1 • Very reactive • 1 valence e- • +1 cation • In nature as compounds • Ex: NaCl (salt)

  6. Alkaline Earth Metals • Group 2 • 2 valence e- • +2 cations • Useful to humans

  7. Transition Metals • Groups 3-12 • Not as reactive • Cations • Useful metals

  8. Lanthanides • Part of transition metals • Period 6 - below rest of table

  9. Actinides • Part of transition metals • Period 7 - below rest of table

  10. Nonmetals • Right side of table except for Hydrogen • Solid, liquid, or gas • Dull, brittle, and nonconductors

  11. Special Nonmetal Groups • Halogens • Noble Gases

  12. Halogens • Group 17 • Very reactive • 7 valence e- • -1 anions • Most compounds

  13. Noble Gases • Group 18 • Full outer shells • Unreactive

  14. Metalloids / Semiconductors • On “zig-zag” • Nonmetals that can conduct • Ex: silicon - used in computers
