New cards
groups 1 & 2
groups 1 & 2
what groups are the s-block elements?
10
New cards
alkali metals
alkali metals
silvery appearance

soft enough to cut with knife

very reactive, must be stored in kerosene bc they will react with the water in the air

not found in nature as free elements, only in compounds

group 1
11
New cards
alkaline earth-metals
alkaline earth-metals
harder, denser, & stronger than alkali metals

higher boiling point

less reactive but also not found in nature as a free element

group 2
12
New cards
H & He
H & He
unique, does not share the same properties of group 1
13
New cards
groups 3-12
groups 3-12
what groups are the d-block elements?
14
New cards
transition metals
transition metals
good conductors, high luster

typically less reactive than alkali and alkaline-earth metals

some so nonreactive they do not easily form compounds & exist as free elements

groups 3-12
15
New cards
gold, palladium, platinum
gold, palladium, platinum
What are the least reactive transition metals?
16
New cards
groups 13-18
groups 13-18
what groups are the p-block elements?
17
New cards
main group elements
main group elements
made up by the s-block and p-block elements

properties vary greatly
18

nonmetals
nonmetals
What kind of metals does the right side of the p-block have?

New cards
metalloids 

boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium
metalloids

boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium
What kind of 6 metals in the middle of the p-block called? What are they?
21
New cards
halogens
halogens
What is group 17 called?
22
New cards
halogens
halogens
most reactive metals

react very vigorously with most metals to form salts
23
New cards
metalloids
metalloids
semiconducting elements

located in the p-block between metals and nonmetals

brittle solids w/ properties of both metals and nonmetals
24
New cards
metals of the p-block
metals of the p-block
harder and denser than the s-block metals, but softer than the d-block metals
25
New cards
lanthanides and actinides
lanthanides and actinides
What does the f-block consist of?
26
New cards
lanthanides
lanthanides
shiny and similar to group 2 reactivity
27
New cards
actinides
actinides
radioactive and only 1st four found naturally on earth, the rest made in the lab
