6.2 Classifying the Elements
A coin may contain much information in a small space—its value, the year it was minted, and its country of origin. Each square in a periodic table also contains information. You will learn what types of information are usually listed in a periodic table.

The background colors in the squares are used to distinguish groups of elements.
• The Group 1A elements are called alkali metals.
• The Group 2A elements are called alkaline earth metals.
• The nonmetals of Group 7A are called halogens.

The Representative Elements
Elements in groups 1A through 7A are often referred to as representative elements because they display a wide range of physical and chemical properties.
• The s and p sublevels of the highest occupied energy level are not filled.
• The group number equals the number of electrons in the highest occupied energy level.

Classifying the Elements > Transition Elements
In atoms of a transition metal, the highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby d sublevel contain electrons.
In atoms of an inner transition metal, the highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby f sublevel generally contain electrons.
