Periodic Table

Groups contain elements with similar properties in vertical columns (alkali metals, alkaline
earth metals, transition metals, halogens, noble gases, lanthanides, actinides)

Periods are the horizontal rows of elements

Metals, nonmetals, metalloids

, Atoms and Orbitals

The atom contains:
Electrons: found outside the nucleus; negatively charged. Protons: found in the nucleus;
positive charge equal in magnitude to the electron’s negative charge. Neutrons: found in the
nucleus; no charge; virtually same mass as a proton.




Each element has a unique atomic number equal to the number of protons in the atom. In all
the atoms of a neutral element the number of protons equals the number of electrons
