Periodic Table Electron Configurations
The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called PERIODS or SERIES. Numbered 1 to 7
The elements in any group of the periodic table have similar physical and chemical properties! The vertical columns of the periodic table are called GROUPS or FAMILIES. Numbered 1 to 18 or Roman Numerals I to VIII
More on groups • Element properties relate to electronic structures. • Outer electron configurations are the same for the elements in the same group. • Some groups have special names.

Electron Configurations repeat • The shape of the periodic table is a representation of this repetition. • When we get to the end of the row the outermost energy level is full. • This is the basis for our shorthand electron configurations.
s 1 s 2 S- block
The P-block p 1 p 2 p 3 p 4 p 5 p 6
d block 1 d 2 d 3 d s 1 5 6 7 8 10 10 d d d
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 • Each row (or period) is the energy level for s and p orbitals.
• d orbitals fill up after previous energy level, so first d is 3 d even though it’s in row 4. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 3 d
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 • f orbitals start filling at 4 f 4 f 5 f
Summary on groups • Outer electrons are called valence electrons. • Octet Rule – All atoms need 8 valence e-s to be stable • Inner electrons are called core electrons. • Abbreviated electron configurations called Kernel Structures (Noble Gas config): Ex) Calcium is [Ar] 4 s 2 • Note: use only group 18 elements in brackets.
