Periodic Table

​3.1 Classification of Element

• ​Group1: Alkaline Metal

• ​Group2: Alkaline Earth Metal

• ​Group3-15: Transition Metal

• Group16: Chalogen

• ​Group17: Halogen

• ​Group18: Noble/Inert gas

​

​ *same group=same valence electron

​ *same period=same number of principle quantum number, n

​Group & Period

​Block

​Based on valence electronic configuration

• ​Block s: ns¹ to ns²

• ​Block p: ns²np¹ to ns²np⁶

• ​Block d: ns²(n-1)d¹ to ns²(n-1)d¹⁰

• ​Block f: 4f and 5f

​Determine group and period

​Group

​Based on valence electron

• ​Group 1-2(s): group number=number of valence electron

• ​​Group 13-18(p): group number=number of valence electron+10

• ​Group 3-12(d): group number=total number of valence electron of ns²(n-1)d¹ to ns²(n-1)d¹⁰

​

Period

​Based on the number of highest principle quantum number, n

​
