History of the periodic table

My element Sulfur is the most important element there is. The symbol for Sulfur is S. An yellow looking odorless substance that is found underground. Sulfur has an atomic number of 16, atomic weight of 32.065. The element Sulfur is classified as a non-mental with the boiling point of 832.28 degrees Fahrenheit and a melting point of 239.38 degrees Fahrenheit. There are several mixture of sulfur compounds, including the mineral pyrite, or iron sulfide. Each of these types of Sulfur plays its own…

The periodic table had been a key factor in many ways to finding new elements, like scandium, silicon, and neon. It has shown new ways those elements could help us by predicting certain elements reactions. While Dimitri Ivanovich Mendeleev is considered to be the creator of the periodic table, there were many contributions that helped the creation of the useful graph be achieved. Between 1817 and 1829 Johann Dobereiner was grouping elements with similar properties into groups of threes,…

John Dalton was an English chemist, physicst and meterologist. Might be familiar with "Daltons Law of Partial Pressures" which is a law still used today, or "Daltonism" also reffered to as color blindness. Dalton was born in Eaglesfield, England on September 6th, 1766. He lived a great life until his death on July 27, 1844 as he died of a stroke in Manchester, England. John Dalton was born into a strong Quaker family (family thats known as "Religious society of friends". John had 2 survivng…

Phase Diagram and Phase Transformation Fig. 1 shows (FCC) Nickel-(BCC) Chromium binary phase diagram. The eutectic reaction takes place at 1345°C and the composition is 51% Cr and 49% Ni. The solid solubility of Cr in Ni is extensive which is evident from the phase diagram. Phase transformations of two Ni-Cr alloys are explained below. One is Ni40Cr60 (Line 2) which is closer to eutectic composition and contains greater % Cr and the other alloy is Ni68Cr32 (Line 1) which contains greater % Ni.…

series. The 56 (Ax56.1) identifies the alloy within the 3xx.x series. The .1 (Axxx.1) indicates that it is a final shape of ingot. The composition, physical, mechanical properties of A356.1 Aluminium alloy are shown in table 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 respectively. Table 2.3: A356.1 Aluminium alloy Composition. ELEMENT Weight Percentage Aluminium (Al) 91.73 Silicon (Si) 7.23 Iron (Fe)…

The periodic table we know today is very organized and accurate. It shows all of the elements that have been discovered and has them arranged and by their chemical properties, atomic masses, and electron configurations. In order to construct the periodic table, every element had to be discovered. Elements such as gold, tin, lead, and copper have been widely known and used since ancient times, however, the first discovery of an element wasn’t made until 1649 by Hennig Brand when he discovered…

The history of piezoelectricity evolution is over 120 years which was discovered by brothers Curie in 1880. They were Pierre Curie (1859-1906) and Jacques Curie (1855-1941). During the study of the generation surface electrical charge by applying pressure on some material, they found out an unusual phenomenon which was a voltage of opposite polarity was generated by pressure was applied on the crystalline minerals such as quartz. The amplitude of the generated voltage was proportional to the…

Written exercise Paragraph 1 Iron phosphate, FePO4, has a very similar structure as quartz. Quartz has a trigonal lattice structure with space group P3121 (group no. 152). Similarly, at temperature below 980K, iron phosphate exists as α-FePO4, which also exhibits trigonal lattice structure with space group P3121 in which iron, phosphate and oxygen occupy Wyckoff position 3a, 3b and 6c respectively. In quartz, every silicon atom is connected to four oxygen atoms to form a network of…

The CGS framework retreats to a proposition in 1832 by the German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss to base an arrangement of supreme units on the three essential units of length, mass and time. Gauss picked the units of millimeter, milligram and second The centimetre–gram–second arrangement of units (truncated CGS or cgs) is a variation of the metric framework taking into account the centimeter as the unit of length, the gram as the unit of mass, and the second as the unit of time. All CGS…

theory about periodic trends. We put these 3 metals through different tests to show why elements in similar group and period react differently. The purpose for this lab is to test the idea of patterns in the periodic trend, and if elements in similar group or similar period react differently due to the trend that they follow. If two elements in the same group or family are to be tested, one of the element reactivity will be slightly different from the other. This is the work of the periodic…
