The History of the Periodic Table (2004)

Icon: 
DVD icon

Chronicles the historical development of the concept of an "element" from the ideas of ancient Greece through modern quantum theory. Viewers learn that scientists like Boyle, Dalton, and Lavoisier began to recognize patterns in the behavior of chemicals, they sought a unifying principle that would explain why different elements had different properties.

Properties of Elements (2004)

Icon: 
DVD icon

Explores the connection between the atomic structure of an element and its properties. Students see how the behavior of the elements and the compounds they form is related to their valence shells -- and learn that anything that affects the valence shell will affect the chemical and physical properties of the element!
