 How to Teach the Periodic


Table
By Paul Dohrman, eHow Contributor

Students should be reasonably fluent in the


lighter elements of the periodic table, so
some memorization should be taught.
Mnemonics are available to help.
However, most of the emphasis should be
on reading and understanding the periodic
table's structure.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Instructions
Things You'll Need:
 grid-shaped period table of the
elements
 spiral-shaped period table of the
elements (optional)

Mnemonics
1. 1

Teach a mnemonic for the first nine


elements: Hi, He Lies Because
Boron Can Not Oxidize Fluoride.

These stand for the first nine


elements in order: hydrogen (H),
helium (He), lithium (Li), beryllium
(Be), boron (Bo), carbon (C),
nitrogen (N), oxygen (O) and
fluorine (F).

2. 2

Teach a mnemonic for the next


eight elements: New Nation Might
Also Sign Peace Security Clause.
These stand for the next eight
elements in order: neon (Ne),
sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg),
aluminum (Al), silicon (Si),
phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), and
chlorine (Cl). There is of course the
risk of mistaking "peace" for
potassium, but can be avoided if the
students learn that K is its symbol.

3. 3

Teach another mnemonic, for the


first 20 elements. Explain that H.
Helibebcnof and Nena
Mgalsipsclarkca are the two
Russian inventors of the periodic
table.

Of course, Mendeleev is the


Russian inventor of the table that
we use today, so this pretense, as
well as the complexity of the names
may not be a popular choice for
teachers.

Gridlike Structure
4. 1

Explain the significance of rows.

Teach that each successive element


has an additional proton and
electron, and has a complete outer
electron shell at the end of the row.

5. 2

Explain the significance of


columns.

The columns group elements with


similar properties together. For
example, columns that are opposite
distances from the noble gases form
ionic bonds together. The noble gas
column should be emphasized.

6. 3

Explain that the nearest distance to


the noble gases determines much of
the element's chemistry.

This is because the shortest


distance to having a full outer shell
(i.e. the fewest number of electrons
needed to be lost or gained) is what
usually determines how an atom
binds in a molecule.

7. 4

Explain the variation in row length.

The increasing capacity of the outer


shell for each row (2, 8, 8, 18, 18,
32, and 32) explains the differing
length of the rows.

8. 5

Teach where the lanthanide


(lanthanoid) and actinide (actinoid)
series below the grid fit in, in the
sixth and seventh rows.

Relate this to the previous lesson,


that this is an effort to represent
different sizes of outer shell. This is
also an opportunity to explain that
the names lanthanide and actinide
are historical, and being replaced
with their -noid counterparts.

9. 6

Explicate the reason for the element


placements at the top of grid.
The reason the first three rows are
split should be explicitly pointed
out, that the point is to center the
elements on the noble gases. This
can be related to the earlier lesson
on the quickest path to a full outer
shell.

10. 7

Explain the periodicity of the grid


further by presenting a spiral
periodic table.

The Chemical Galaxy website sells


such spiral representations. Note
that such a representation was
suggested in Mendeleev's time; this
is not a new idea.

Many years ago (1963) I was required to learn the entire periodic table
(except the transuranium elements) for a course entitled "Advanced
Inorganic Chemistry." While I did not have any mnemonics, I did find that
the entire table can be PRONOUNCED, and I memorized it that way, a row at a
time. I still receive requests from my daughter in college to recite it for
her friends, an exercise which can make one feel like an incredible geek.

From: Martin Ystenes <ystenes#NoSpam.kjemi.unit.no>

This one is probably best in Norwegian, but as far as I can see it can be
easily transferred to other languages. I teach it to my students every
year:

Hy! He! LiBe BoCNOF Ne! NaMgAl SiPSClAr KaCaScaTi VaCroMan FeCoNiCu "Zed
Enn" GaGe AsSe BroKr

I wonder who will be the first one to include this in a song.

From: David Mascord <david#NoSpam.dtvm31.demon.co.uk>

As an undergraduate I learnt to sound the first 36 symbols as one very


long word: HHeLiBeBCNOFNeNaMgAlSiPSClArKCaScTiVCrMnFeCoNiCuZnGaGeAsSeBr
Essentially every consonant is sounded with "c" replaced by "k" and the two
initial "h" sounded as "huh" "huh". I can still remember it so it
obviously worked for me!

From: Peter Swindells <cs1966#NoSpam.wlv.ac.uk>


I remembered the two short periods as two separate words that went (more
or less phonetically:

Helibebcanofnee

and

Namgalsipsclar
From: lawson#NoSpam.pax.llnl.gov (William S. Lawson)
From: DPierce#NoSpam.world.std.com

(Richard D Pierce) How about Feynman's mnemonic for the third period of the
periodic table: "NeNa, M'gAl, SiPS Chlorine"?

H H He
Li Be B C N O F Ne
Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar

From: cummings#NoSpam.u.washington.edu (Mike Cummings)


Let me offer this one, see

if it's any better. A High School teacher taught me, "H!


HeLiBebCNOFNeNaMgAlSiPSiCl!" Not much help, huh? Here's a pronunciation
key:

"H!" (Just make a loud H, then pause, looking as if you're about to pounce.
Nice dramatic effect that gets the listener's attention.)
"Heh-Lee-Beb-K'Noff-" (Easy so far) "N'Nahm" (That's N(schwa) - Nahm[rhymes
with bomb]) "Gall-Sip-Sickle"

From: harper#NoSpam.kauri.vuw.ac.nz (John Harper)


And in chemistry we eventually

learnt to pronounce the following, though each line seems harder than the
one before:
HHeLiBeBCNOF
NeNaMgAlSiPSCl
AKCaScTiVCrMnFeCoNiCuZnGaGeAsSeBr (this was before they changed it
to ArKCa...)
KrRbSrYZrNbMoTcRuRhPdAgCdInSnSbTeI but I must admit I didn't find
the rare earths memorable this way.

From: Dave Edmonds <de8288#NoSpam.bristol.ac.uk>


This is how I always remembered the first two periods of the periodic
table...

Note CuZn is pronounced Cousin, Ni is pronounced Knee. I always knew Ga as


Gar, but Glenise Moors says it’s Gay, but I thought that wouldn’t be so
kosher with the different innotation today, so I’ve stayed with my saying.

This mnemonic was taught to us in First Year Diploma Chemistry in 1962 as


an aid to remember the first three periods of the atomic table by our
teacher Alec McLelland.
You had to remember to put Hydrogen in at the start,
then it begins for Helium and Lithium with 'He Lies’.

From: "ULA" <ulj#NoSpam.poczta.fm>

This one is in Polish


I invented it when I had to remember them all with numbers even - but
numbers one can easily find knowing the position of the element.
So I grouped them in columns it's usually more handy. And made to a
dialogue

-Hej Lipiec Nadchodzi Kanikula zRobmy Cos Francuzom!

-Hej, Ne on! to zArgon w Krypcie Ks(i)eni a on Rad!

and lanthanides:

A gdym Thorem Pro taktU raNem plul, nie Pluta z Ameryki Ur, a Berkla z

and translation:
-Hey, July is coming, hot period, shall we do something to the French
people?
-Without magic all our endeavours will rather make Scandinavia happy and
here is the tragedy, active lament.
-You cheap circus employee, rush to the port in your ford!
-Ha, over the sky Dublin is dancing, those who are lame beware moths, prefer
putting into a frame Aborigines,
because i am afraid of Ren River's technology, iron Bohrmachine intimidates
me with its movement and noise.
-And that leads to irritation, you fool, because before Pallad Athena and
Emilia Plater (she was Polish heroine in 19th century) will lull great
miracle with their car, you will know what blows into the grave.
-Ball, elegancy, Indians in Taliban, coal is the power of Germans, the dream
of public
-Take with the ace, sir, and plant celeries, telephonic Polish degreed (oh,
i mean someone who studied Polish literature)
-brother imposed duty on bottles, our world is crazy
-hey, not him, it's jargon in nuns' superior's crypt, and he is happy!

lanthanides:
red lamp, old smoke and new smoke Prometheus Samaritan gave Europe in Teb
Valley, and (dyspozytor i can not satisfactorily translate, that is a job
anyway) Holmes hugs drums and these drums he solders.
and when i in the morning along a track for the tact spat, not Pluto's from
America but Berkel's from California one stone is a farm, this man, noble
one, pours oil in the Ren River (German river, i do not know English
equivalent).

It really sounds in Polish like a periodic table.
