Sometimes, memorization is necessary and when it comes to Chemistry, you must know how to memorize Periodic Table and its elements. Because without knowing the elements, you’re missing out on the foundation required to learn the rest of what chemistry has to offer.

Periodic Table Quick Facts (Mendeleev Periodic Table)

Dmitri Mendeleev, a Russian chemist and inventor, is considered the “father” of the Periodic Table. The table is also known as Mendeleev Periodic Table.

 The Periodic Table consists of names, symbols, atomic numbers and atomic weight of the element.

 The table is arranged in two manner that, elements within each vertical column are similar or have something in common are called Groups where elements in one period have same number of electron shells forms.

 Metals reside on the left side of the table, while non-metals reside on the right.

 There are 118 confirmed elements in the periodic table. Among those, 90 elements can be found in nature, others are man-made.

Acronyms and Acrostics??

Acronyms and acrostics are ‘first letter Mnemonics’.

Acronyms chunk words together, which is good (even if they are nonsense) and acrostics gives more meaning to the sentence. Here is the example which help you to understand:

United States of America is often written as USA. That’s an acronym.

Now!

Let’s start some fun, interesting mnemonics in Hindi and English to memorize elements along each group or period.

However, you don’t need to memorize the synthetic elements, which are the elements from atomic number 104 to 118.

Easy Way to Learn Periodic Table PDF

Now, take a tour to all the block one by one in detail. To know, scroll the blog-

s-block Periodic Table Elements

If the periodic table were a city, the s-block would be a small neighborhood filled with similar houses and properties. The s-block is located to the far left and consists of two groups.

Group 1 is known as Alkali Metals. It includes Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Rubidium (Ru), Caesium (Cs), and Francium (Fr).

To memorize this group, we use a sentence –

 HighlyNaive Kids Rub Cat’s Fur

 HaLiNa K Rb Csey Fryad

 Group 2 is known as Alkaline Earth Metals. It includes Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), Barium (Br), and Radium (Ra).

Mnemonic for Group 2:

 Beta Mange Car Scooter Baap Rone se Raazi

Periodic Table d-block Elements

 

Let’s take you to the tour of d-block elements. D-block elements occupy the space between the s-block and p-block in the periodic table.

It includes elements consist of element groups 3 to 12. Groups 3 to 11 are also known as transitional metals. Group 12 elements, which have its d subshell completely filled, are also known as post-transition elements.

 Period 4 elements includes are Scandium (Sc), Titanium (Ti), Vanadium (V), Chromium (Cr), Manganese (Mn), Iron (Fe), Cobalt (Co), Nickel (Ni), Copper (Cu) and Zinc (Zn).
