The world of chemistry can seem very confusing, with so many different types of substance, all reacting in so many different ways. A few rules can help remove this confusion, and the periodic table is a very useful resource to help us do this. In this title, we will explore the nature of different elements and explain why there is so much variety in the compounds that can be made. We will also discuss the history and organisation of the periodic table, as well as exploring the trends and patterns that can be found within it.

Chapters
- A substance that is made of only one sort of atom is called an element
- All materials composed of one or more elements
- All substances are made of atoms
- CHEMICAL CALCULATIONS
- classify substances as elements (metallic or non-metallic), compounds or and mixtures and distinguish between them according to their properties
- Compounds
- demonstrate a knowledge that the Periodic Table groups together elements with similar properties, e.g. the Alkali metals as a group of reactive metals, the Halogens as a group of reactive non-metals, the Noble gases as a group of unreactive non-metals
- describe simple trends in the properties of elements within Groups (I, II,VII) and across Periods (2 and 3) of the Periodic Table
- Electronic structures of the first 20 elements in the Periodic Table
- ELEMENTS
- Elements and Atoms
- Elements are shown in the periodic table
- Elements as the 'building blocks' for all materials
- Gradual changes in the properties of elements in one group
- Groups in the Periodic Table
- INORGANIC QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS
- match up symbols and names of elements
- outline the work of Mendeleev in the development of the Periodic Table
- Periods and groups
- predict where an unfamiliar element should be placed in the series based on comparative information
- Reactions related to the electronic structure of an element
- recall the chemical symbols of elements
- relate the position of selected elements in the Periodic Table and their properties to their electronic structure
- Similarities in chemical properties of elements in the same group
- The Alkali Metals
- The connection between number of outer electrons and position in the Periodic Table
- The elements in Group 1 of the periodic table all react with non-metal elements to form ionic compounds in which the metal ion has a single positive charge
- The elements in Group 1 of the periodic table, the alkali metals, have similar chemical properties
- The elements in Group 7 of the periodic table, the halogens, have similar chemical properties
- The elements in Group 7 of the periodic table, the halogens, react with alkali metals to form ionic compounds in which the halide ions have a single negative charge
- The gradual change in properties of the elements in each group
- The groups contain elements with similar properties
- The Halogens
- THE PERIODIC TABLE
- The Periodic Table with elements in order of increasing atomic number
- The position of alkali metals, halogens, noble gases and transition metals in the Periodic Table
- The position of metals, non-metals, alkali metals, halogens and noble gases in the Periodic Table
- There are about 100 different elements
- use the Periodic Table to predict the properties of certain unfamiliar elements, limited to Groups I, II,VII and properties to relative atomic mass, atomic size, metallic and non-metallic characteristics, valency and chemical reactivity with oxygen, water
Reviews
This is helping me learn the table.

This is a really good podcast. I really recommend you buy it because it can help people of any age to learn more about the elements in the Periodic Table.
