Bromine (info)Liquid
Bromine (Uses)Light bulbs, dyes in makeup & hair
Iodine (s)I
Iodine (info)Shiny, grey, solid, heated-purple vapor
Iodine (origin)obtained from seawater
Iodine (Uses)essential to diet-produces hormone thyroxin & prvents goiter
Astatine (info)Radioactive & rare
Noble Gases (info)don't form compounds
Noble GasesHelium & Neon
Helium (Uses)Balloons
Neon (Uses)Lights
Boron GroupBoron, Aluminium, Gallium, Indium, Thallium (13)
Boron (info)metalloid
Boric acid (info)mild antiseptic; compound of Boron
Borax (info/uses)Used in laundry products to soften water; compound or Boron
Aluminium (s)Al
Aluminum (info)metal, most abundant on earth's crust
Aluminum (Uses)cans, foil wrap, cooking pans, buildings, airplanes
Gallum, Indium, ThalliumProduce Semiconductors
Carbon Group(14); 4 electrons OEL, carbon, silicon, germanium, Tin, lead
Carbonnonmetal
Carbon allotropesDiamond & Graphite
GraphiteBlack powder that consists of heagonal layers of carbon atoms & excellant lubricant
Hexagonseach carbon atoms is bonded to three other carbon atoms and the fourth to the next layer; so layers can slide
Diamondextremly hard & clear; bonded with four other carbon atoms at vertices of a tetrahedron so many tetrahedrons form togeether in one molecule
Verticescorner points
SIlicon2nd in abundance on earth's crust
Silicon (found)rocks, soil, sand
Silicon (allotropes)Hard, grey substance & brown powder
Silicon dioxidesimilar form to tetrahedrons in diamond
Nitrogen group(15) share electrons to form covalent bonds, nitrogen, phosporus, arsenic, antimony, bismith
Nitrogen (info)breath=80%, 4th in abundance in your body, must be obtained in compounds
Nitrogen (uses)fertilizers
Phosphorus (info)nonmetal,3 allotropes
Phosphorus (uses) water softeners to fertilizers to match heads
Antimony (info)metalloid
Antimony (uses)Lower melting points of other metals
Bismuth (info)metal
Bismuth (uses)Lower melting points of other metals, automatic fire-sprikler heads
Oxygen Group(16) Oxygen, sulfur, selenium, Tellurium, Polonium
Oxygen (info)nonmetal, makes up 20% of air, need to breath and respritory system
Oxygen (found)diatomic molcule, during stoms change to ozone molecules
Sulfur (info)nonmetal, noncrystalline & crystalline solid
Sulfur (uses)combines with metals to form colors for pigments in paints
Selenium (info)nonmetal, trace amounts in diet,toxic if too much in system
Selenium (found)multivitamins
Alkali Metalsmost reactive, (1), many uses, oxidation #+1, lithium, sodium, potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Francium
Lithiumtreat bipolar diseases
SodiumSalt
POtassiumnecessary for life b/c nerves and mucles need it to work
Franciumreactive, radioactive, rare
Alkalineearth metals, very reactive, not in nature (2)
Beryllium (s)Be

copperelectric wiring, conducts electricity, cheap
SIlverPhotographic film & paper, jewelry
GOldJewelry b/c soft, color, rarity
Group 12Zinc, Cadmium, Mercury
ZincCoat, plate other metals such as iron
Cadmiumplating and rechargeable batteries
Mercury (info)silvery, liquid, poisnois
Mercury (uses)thermoniters, batteries, switches, thermostats
Neptuniumtruns into pluinoium
