1. Periodic table structure

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Period: A horizontal row on the periodic table. Elements in the same period have increasing atomic numbers and similar electron shell levels.
  • Group: A vertical column on the periodic table. Elements in the same group share similar chemical properties and the same number of valence electrons.
  • Atomic number: The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. It uniquely identifies an element and determines its position in the periodic table.
  • Periodic table structure: Organised by atomic number, with elements arranged in periods (rows) and groups (columns). This organisation reflects periodic trends in properties and reactivity.
