The modern table was devised in 1869 by Dimitri Mendeleyev.

He arranged the elements by weight and by their chemical properties .

"...if all the elements be arranged in order of their atomic weights a periodic repetition of properties is obtained”

- Mendeleyev



The Periodic Law –Similar physical and chemical properties recur periodically when the elements are listed in order of increasing atomic number.



(A) Periods of the periodic table, and (B) groups of the periodic table. 10/10/2015

Elements are arranged:

Vertically into Groups

Horizontally Into Periods



Atom Equalities in No. of electron at outer most ring..

Comes in same vertical series..

Atom Same No. of Electron holding

shell

Comes in same horizontal row….

This way decided manner of chemical reaction & physiochemical similiarity…



If We looked at one atom of every element in a group…



Each atom has the same number of electrons in it’s outermost shell…

•An example…



The group 2 atoms all have 2 electrons in their outer shells …

Be (Beryllium) Atom Mg (Magnesium) Atom



The number of outer or “valence” electrons in an atom effects the way an atom bonds.

•The way an atom bonds determines many properties of the element.

•This is why elements within a group usually have similar properties.



An atom from each element in a period…



Each atom has the same number of electron holding shells.

An example…



The period 4 atoms each have 4 electron containing shells….

K (Potassium) Atom Fe (Iron) Atom Kr (Krypton)Atom

4th Shell



Ordinal Number

This is in the table stands over each atom symbol.

The ordinal number Z equals the excess of positive protons P over the negative nuclear electrons, E,

Z = P-E.

Since the ordinal number represents only a definite positive nuclear excess,



The ordinal number is the quantitative expression for the property of each element.

The position number in the periodic system or the ordinal no. is

the same…

It is the characteristic

for each element



This no. related to both the speed and the impulse of movement is given so that one might well say: the rhythm of self-radiation of the single elementary atom.

Homoeopathy Approach:



Functional Elements

Carbon ( C)Hydrogen ( H) Oxygen ( O) Nitrogen ( N)



All of them take first place in there group

Characterised by highest degree of

combination variation

They form Fat,Protein,

Carbohydrate various functional element



Metabolic & Combustion Elements

Phosphorus Sulphur Iron Iodine



sulphur, phosphorus and iodine as anion formers, as representatives of Groups V, VI, VII and iron.

vary between cation and anion building, as the representative of the accessory Group VIII.,



Tonic Element

Sodium ( Na)

Potassium ( K) Calcium (Ca)Magnesium

(Mg)



Primarily control the constitution of organic

structure.

Maintain labile equibilirium power, electrochemical &

electrophysical structure.

Alkali & earth alkali metal shape it as hydrogenoid, fat,

relax, torpid, lymphatic constitution



Constitutional Agent & structural element

Groups V, VI, VII and the accessory Group VIII partcipate

in chemical catabolism

Constitution thin, hyperasthetic eaisly irritable & predominent sympathetic

Group IV of the periodic system

Mineralic carbon compounds in the middle as the amphoteric.

They impede chemical metabolism, assimilation as well as dissimilation.



Heavy Metal Catalysis

The accessory Groups Ia to VIIa with their center which is designated as VIII.







The Hydrogen series: Hydrogen to Helium

The Hydrogen series: Hydrogen to Hlium

'To be or not to be'



Carbon series: Lithium to Neon

‘I individuality’



Silicium series: Natrum to Argon

‘Family & Relation’



The Ferrum series: Kali to Krypton

‘Task trade abilites profession’



The Silver Series: Rubidium to Xenon

‘Ideas Art’



The Gold Series: Caseum to Radon

‘Power leadership’
