A '''chemical series''' is a group of [[chemical element]]s whose physical and chemical characteristics vary progressively from one end of the series to another. |
|||
Chemical series were discovered before the creation of the [[periodic table of the chemical elements]], which was created to try to organise the elements according to their chemical properties. |
|||
Several chemical series correspond exactly to [[periodic table group]]s: this is not a coincidence, as the physical properties that group them arise from the same [[atomic orbital]] configurations that place them in the same group in the periodic table. |
|||
The chemical series of the periodic table are the: |
|||
* [[Alkali metal]]s ([[periodic table group]] 1) |
|||
* [[Alkaline earth metal]]s (periodic table group 2) |
|||
* [[Lanthanide]]s |
|||
* [[Actinide]]s |
|||
* [[Transition metal]]s |
|||
* Other [[metal]]s |
|||
* [[Metalloid]]s |
|||
* [[Nonmetal]]s |
|||
* [[Chalcogen]]s (periodic table group 16) |
|||
* [[Halogen]]s (periodic table group 17) |
|||
* [[Noble gas]]es (periodic table group 18) |
|||

* [[Coinage metal]] |
