Using the Periodic Table to determine the Atomic Structure of the Elements

ATOMIC STRUCTURE

Periodic Table An Important Tool in Chemistry• For each element

• Classification as metal or non-metal• Structure of the atom

• Properties • Physical properties: size, melting point, conducting electricity

• Chemical properties: how easily it reacts to form new substances
