Topic 2: Periodic Table

The periodic table organizes elements based on their properties and recurring trends. Transition metals, found in groups 3 to 12, are known for their high electrical conductivity, malleability, and high melting and boiling points.

Topic 2: Periodic Table

Transition Metals (G3 - G12)

Malleable

High electrical conductivity

High melting & boling point

Topic 2: Periodic Table

Alkali metals (G1)

with oxygen to form oxides e.g. Li2O
with water to form hydroxides and hydrogen e.g. KOH
with halogens to form halides e.g. NaOH
Shiny when freshly cut
Easy to cut

Noble gases (G18)

Colourless
Monoatomic
Inert (Non- reactive)

Halogens (G17)

Poor conductors of electricity
Exist as diatomic molecules
Form halide when react with less electronegative elements
HX (aq) + H2O (l) → X- (aq) + H3O+ (aq)
Strong smell
Reacitivity decreases down the group

Alkaline earth metals (G2)

Reaction
Mg(s) + H2O(g) → MgO(s) + H2(g)
2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s)
MCO3(s) → MO(s) + CO2(g)
Soft, silver metals

Metalloids (G13)

Ductile & malleable
Semi-conductive
Solid at room temperature

General Trends

Ionization energy
Electronegativity
Ionic radii
Atomic radii
