Period and Groups When you look at a periodic table, each of the rows is considered to be a different period When a column goes from top to bottom, it's called a group. The elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer orbital (Valence).

Reactivity Alkali Metals and Halogens are very reactive because they have either 1 or 7 valence electrons

Families on the Periodic Table Elements on the periodic table can be grouped into families bases on their chemical properties. Each family has a specific name to differentiate it from the other families in the periodic table. Elements in each family react differently with other elements.

ALKALI METALS Group 1 Hydrogen is not a member, it is a non-metal Soft and silvery metals Very reactive, esp. with water Conduct electricity Color Light Blue Image: http: //www. learner. org/interactives/periodic/groups 2. html

ALKALINE EARTH METALS Group 2 White and malleable Reactive, but less than Alkali metals Conduct electricity Color Dark Green

TRANSITION METALS Groups 3 - 12 Good conductors of heat and electricity. Some are used for jewelry. Can bond with many elements in a variety of shapes. Color Dark Blue

BORON FAMILY Group 13 Most are metals Boron is a metalloid Color Red

CARBON FAMILY Group 14 Contains metals, metalloids, and a non-metal Carbon (C) Color Yellow

NITROGEN FAMILY Group 15 Can share electrons to form compounds Contains metals, metalloids, and non-metals Color Bright Green

OXYGEN FAMILY Group 16 Contains metals, metalloids, and non-metals Reactive Color ORANGE

Halogens Group 17 7 electrons in the outer shell All are non-metals Very reactive are often bonded with elements from Group 1 Color Yellow

Noble Gases Group 18 Exist as gases Non-metals Not reactive with other elements Color Grey

Rare Earth Metals Some are Radioactive The rare earths are silver, silverywhite, or gray metals. Conduct electricity Color Violet
