Make up a little (or big) song about them....thats how I did it!

Nobody knows the answer to this exept for Mendeleev himself, and he isn't talking. The first periodic table had 64 elements, although 3 or 4 of those were still purely theoretical. Since there were more than 50 in the first periodic table, you can't really discuss the first 50 added very well. Several models of organization were proposed, but there were around 60 known elements before it was deemed necessary to organize them. Only Mendeleev's used periodicity, and it is the closest to our modern periodic table.\n\nThe only 2 elements in my periodic table are:\n\nWOMANIUM (XX)\nPhysical properties: Generally soft and round in form. Boils at nothing and may freeze any time. Very bitter if not used well.\nChemical properties: Very active and highly unstable. Possesses strong affinity with gold, silver, platinum, and precious stones. Violent when left alone. Turns slightly green when placed next to a better specimen.\nUsage: An extremely good catalyst for dispersion of wealth.\nCaution: Highly explosive in inexperienced hands!\n\nMANIUM (XY)\nPhysical properties: Solid at room temperature but gets bent out of shape easily. Difficult to find a pure sample. Due to rust, aging samples are unable to conduct electricity as easily as young samples.\nChemical properties: Attempts to bond with XX any chance it can get. Also tends to form strong bonds with itself. Becomes explosive when mixed with Childrium for prolonged period of time.\nUsage: Possibly good methane source.\nCaution: In the absence of XX, this element rapidly decomposes and begins to smell.

Use toothpicks and colored gumdrops.\n\nChoose a color for: protons, neutrons, and electrons.\n\nThen use the colored gumdrops to represent them. for example, use 2 blue gumdrops for the protons, 2 red gumdrops for the electrons.\n\nthen connect them using the toothpicks- so end result is it looks lke an atom with te protons in the middle (nucleus) and electrons on the outside.

go to www.google.com them write periodic table and than go to images and you'll see

Look on a periodic table.\n\nIt should be listed below the atomic number as a decimal value.  The mass number is an average mass (in atomic mass units) of an element, based on different isotopes.  It equals the number of protons + the number of neutrons in the nucleus.

Rote memorization, with flashcards possibly, is the only way I can think of. Like the other poster said, look for carbonyls, alcohols, alkenes, and amino peaks (a weak, wide peak at about ... 3200 or so)

Just memorize them. Write them down.

This is an answer I gave a few weeks ago. It helped me to get from failing Chemistry to University....maybe it will help you to understand the periodic table as well.\n\nMy Chemistry teacher taught me a great story which helped me learn the elements, which groups they were in, which periods, how many electrons they had etc and resulted in me going from a grade F to B. Every kid should learn this.\n\nHorrible Hairy Little Begger Boys Catch Newts On Friday Near Naples, Magnificent Albert Sits Planning Some Clever Arrangement Keeping Calm.\n\nOk, looks crazy until you break it down;\n\nH He Li Be B C N O F Ne Na, Mg Al Si P S CL Ar K Ca\n\nThen put it into the table\n\nH\nHe\nLi Be B C N O F Ne\nNa Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar \nK Ca\n\nYou will need to line them up because Yahoo has left align, but the trick is the story. \n\nThe groups 1-8 (across the table) tell you how many electrons are in the outer shell, the periods (down the table) tell you how many shells an element has. etc\n\neg Sodium (Na+, group 1) bonds with Chlorine (Cl- , group 7) because Chlorine has 7 electrons in its outer shell. It needs the one from sodium to become stable.....NaCl (kitchen salt). This is the basis for other compund formation....ie water H2O and so on.\n\nLearn the story above and everything will fall into place.\n\nHope this helps!

As you work with th periodic table you will remember the important ones. You always have a periodic table to work with. In quantiitative analysis you need to use all those decimal places in your calculations.

Try Mind Mapping!!!\nWrite all the most important facts that need to be remembered on que cards, study them and then shuffle them and map them back together. That way u will remeber the facts and all the little bits that connect them!!!!!

I used to sing the elements by each column... H-Li-Na-K... etc... using Oh Susana! music =P\nAnd atomic numbers is almost co-relative... But don't know a way, just using them frequently will help...

cant answer secifically, but you should be able to back calculte taking elements present today and using the half lives as your main variable.

hey try this:\n\n1. if u can't remember equations practise them by writing them again and again\n\n2.u can write all name reactions on a sheet of paper and paste it them on ur almirah,so everytime u open it to get ready for school,revise it.Also get two photostated copy of this paper. and revise them by getting up in the morning,while going to school etc,.\n\n3.note down all the formulaes in the book on  a single sheet of paper,it becomes easier to remember them this way and do one or two numericals on each of these formula.\n\n4.Learn definitions,derivations completely,because it is where u can  get full marks .\n\n5. besides study hard.\n\nand alwys remember this:u cannot achieve success in ur life if u don't get motivated.\n\n\nbest of luck

The position of the elements in the periodic table gives you clues about the valences of each element. Also, if you remember the formulae for familiar substances (like carbon dioxide, water, sulfur dioxide, hydrochloric acid, etc) that will also give you clues about possible or likely valences. \n\nThe final answer is:\n\nmemorize.

There are a few ways to approach this problem.\n\nFirst, on the left side of the periodic table, most elements are cationic in nature--that is, they like to form a positively charged ion. Elements on the right side of the periodic table tend to be anionic, or negavitely charged.\n\nSecondly, elements on the left side of the periodic table are predominantly metals. Those on the right side of the periodic table are mainly non-metals.\n\nAnother significant difference between the left and right sides of the periodic table is the atomic radii of the elements. Elements to the right side of the periodic table are larger in radius than the elements to the left side of the periodic table.\n\nFinally, elements on the right side of the periodic table are usually (although not always) more electronegative than those found on the left side of the periodic table.\n\nI hope this is enough information to help you with your problem. Good luck!
