This chemistry course explains group 2 elements (alkaline earth metals) and group 17 elements (halogens), shows where they are on the periodic table and their electronic structures, and describes the physical and chemical properties of each. We explore the interactions of alkali earth metals with oxygen and water, the reactions of halogens with metals, non-metals, hydrogen and sulfuric acid, and some of their industrial applications.

  • Group 2 Elements: Alkaline Earth Metals

    This module discusses group 2 elements, also known as alkaline earth metals, along with their electronic configurations and physical and chemical properties. You’ll learn about the reactions of elements like Beryllium (Be) and Magnesium (Mg) with oxygen, water, and dilute acids and the applications of group 2 elements in the industry.

    Group 17: Halogens

    This module describes the group 17 elements, also known as halogens, as well as their periodic table position and physical and chemical properties. You will learn about their electronic configuration and melting and boiling points, among other things. You’ll also study halogen reactions with metals, non-metals, and hydrogen.
