    Introduction For the most part, the periodic table groups atoms together which are similar in structure and property. Groups or columns share similar electronic configurations, on which a variety of properties are based1. In the lab, the tested elements include those from Group 1, Group 2, Period 3, Period 4, Period 5, Period 6, and a series of metals (Calcium, Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Tin, Zinc). Group 1 elements have one valence electron and are extremely reactive. Most of the time, compounds…

    in a course entitled Principles of Chemistry I. Currently, I need to learn and store trends of the periodic table. One particularly hard area is electron affinity and ionization energy trends. Electron affinity is how willing an element is to gain an electron, and ionization energy is how willing the element is to lose an electron. Remembering which direction each of those two trends go on the periodic table has been difficult for me. I’m trying to store this information in my long-term memory…

    Paragraph 1 The structural evolution of FePO4 studied from a temperature range of 294K to 1073K by neutron powder diffraction. It is unique from α-quartz isotopes. It is different because it’s a cation is a transition metal. The structure dimensions and atomic coordinates in the α phase tend to increase by great amounts as the high-temperature β-phase rises and exhibit first order transition at 980K. The atomic structure dimensions of the α-phase FePO4 increased in a non-uniform pattern with…

    German chemist named Lothar Meyer proposed a “periodic table of elements” on the base of periodic repetition of properties. In 1864, before Mendeleev, and John Newlands arranged the elements in order of atomic mass where every eight elements has similar properties. He called the relationship “the law of octaves”. Even so, this law could not be applied for the elements beyond Calcium, so it was not accepted by the scientific community. The modern periodic table is thought to be the outermost…

    The basis of Mendeleev’s periodic table was categorizing the elements according to their physical and chemical characteristics with regard to their atomic weights. Mendeleev was the first to come up with a structure for the periodic table with columns and rows. There were other scientists who have worked on tabulating information of the elements even before Mendeleev, however, he was the first scientist to come up with a periodic trend to predict the properties of elements which were not…

    CHAPTER 1 TIN OXIDE 1.1 Introduction Tin dioxide, also known by the systematic name tin(IV) oxide and stannic oxide in the older notation, is the inorganic compound with the formula SnO2. The mineral form of SnO2 is called cassiterite, and this is the main ore of tin. With many other names, this oxide of tin is the most important raw material in tin chemistry. This colorless, diamagnetic solid is amphoteric. 1.2 Structure It crystallises with the rutile structure, wherein the tin atoms are six…

    of protons, and atomic mass is the mass of the element. The Symbol for Calcium is `Ca’ and the atomic number is 20, and the mass number is 40.078 u. Family. The periodic table is classified into groups and every group(row) has its own properties. Calcium is in group 2 ,and this is the second most reactive group of the periodic table. Each of the elements in group 2 has two electrons in their outer shell. “This group is called Alkaline Earth metals, they are called this because when they…

    Chromium Chromium was discovered in France in 1797. A man named Louis-Nicholas Vauquelin discovered chromium while experimenting with a material known as Siberian red lead. The name Chromium comes from the Greek word "chroma" meaning "color." Chromium got this name because of the many different colors in the element. This element is hard, metallic and shiny. Chromium doesn't tarnish. Chromium is a metal element. Chromium's symbol is "Cr" and has an atomic number of 24. This metal is the…
