Periodic Table The periodic table is an arrangement of the elements according to similarities in their chemical and physical properties.
Physical Properties The characteristics of a substance that can be observed without changing the substance. n Color n Size n Shape n Density n Freezing and Boiling Points n Odor
Groups of Elements l Vertical columns on the periodic table l Similar physical properties l Similar chemical properties
Groups on the Periodic Table 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Representative Groups l Group 1 Alkali Metals l Group 2 Alkaline Earth Metals l Group 7 Halogens l Group 8 Noble Gases
Location of Some Groups 1 A l m k e a t l a i l s 2 A l k a l i n e 3 4 5 6 7 8 H a l o g e n s I n e r t G a s e s
Periods on the Periodic Table l Horizontal rows from Group 1 to Group 8. l Numbered 1, 2, 3, …. l Include representative elements and transition elements
