There are about 90 elements, up to Uranium, that are found naturally. Another 20 elements, beyond Uranium, called trans-uranium elements, have been produced artificially in the laboratories by nuclear reactions. Two elements, Technetium (Tc) and Promethium (Pm) that occur below Uranium are unstable in nature. Elements can be classified by the physical and chemical properties that they display. We have discussed about classification of elements in earlier chapters. The chemical behavior of all elements depends on their electronic configurations. It is the electrons that take part in chemical reactions and therefore their interactions are the main factors that determine the outcome of a chemical reaction. The periodic table of elements has been made on the basis of electronic configuration of elements alone. Depending on the availability of “free” electrons, elements can be classified as metals and non-metals. Free electrons are unbound electrons, beyond closed shells. In metals, these unbound electrons are given off or donated during compound formation. In non-metals, there are no free electrons, instead there is a deficiency of electrons. While forming compounds, non-metals borrow electrons. Examples of metals are Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Gold (Au). Examples of non-metals are Carbon (C ), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N), Chlorine (Cl).

Geochemical processes affecting the major ion compositions of rivers in the South Island, New Zealand. Kim, J. P., Hunter, K.A. and Reid, M. R. (1999) Marine and Freshwater Research This article reports on the major ion compositions (Na, K, Mg, Ca, Sr, Cl, SO4 and reactive Si) of 7 rivers in the South Island, New Zealand (Manuherikia, Clutha, Takaka-Cobb, Haast, Grey, Aorere and Rakaia Rivers). All of the rivers were pristine when compared to global average river waters, and the concentrations of most major ions were close to the 1% percentile levels for global river water compositions. A geochemical model which attributes ion compositions to both rain input and to the weathering of various simple mineral types in the catchment was applied to these data, and to data already published by our group. It was found that this model, although simplistic, accounts for the main features of major ion composition in the rivers studied. The dominant sources of major ions were the weathering of limestones and feldspars. Atmospheric input was relatively small except for Na+ and Cl-.

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two or more substances. Usually the solution is a liquid, but this is not required. Gaseous and solid solutions do exist. Normally, a mixture has two components, the solvent and the solute. The solvent has the greater number of moles; the solute has fewer moles. The solute is also normally the substance of interest, whereas the solvent is a convenient vehicle for it. Consequently, solutions are generally labeled with the solute, and the solvent might not even be mentioned. The most common of all solvents is water. Solutions with water as the solvent may be described as aqueous Since solutions are a mixture, the ratio of solute to solvent varies. This ratio of solute to solvent (or to the entire solution) is called concentration. Many units can be used for concentration . The two emphasized in this chapter are molarity and molality. molarity ( M = moles of solute/liters of solution = mmol solute/mL solution (Equation 5.1)

Research Highlights Fig. 2. Molybdenum K-edge XAS from CSNF using Bent-Laue analyzer detection at the Advanced Photon Source. The molybdenum is present in the fuel at only 0.3 wt%. It is the ability of the Bent-Laue analyzer to resolve these weak features in the presence of a strong background that makes the XAS analysis of trace elements in CSNF possible. Fig. 3. X-ray line scans for uranium, technetium (Tc), and molybdenum (Mo), scaled to relative concentration in the CSNF. These show an anomalous enrichment of Mo and Tc at the surface of a uranium fuel fragment that had been corrosion-tested for more than 8 years. In addition to near-term applications that will allow a better understanding of radionuclide release from corroding waste in the Yucca Mountain Repository, this advance is expected to find applications in understanding fission product behavior in advanced fuel cycles (e.g., fission product behavior in nuclear fuels operating at high temperatures).

Heat Capacity
Heat capacity is defined as "The quantity of heat required to increase the temperature of a system or substance one degree of temperature." [1]. The value is either expressed as being at constant volume or constant pressure. The Specific heat capacity is the ratio of the heat capacity to that of water at 15 degrees centigrade. In 1819, Dulong and Petit offered the empirical relationship that the molar heat capacity of all elements was 3R or 24.9 joules/K*mole (R = gas constant = 8.319 joules/K*mole) [2]. While this is true for many elements around room temperature, the actual values approach at K and can exceed 3R at elevated temperatures. Theoretical calculation of heat capacity as a function of temperature was one of the first great triumphs of quantum physics. Einstein was the first to offer a model that was in good agreement with the experimental data by assuming all atoms in a material were vibrating at the same frequency. His calculations explain the high temperature heat capacity very well, but the heat capacity approaches at K too quickly. Debye modified Einstein's work by assuming a range of frequencies for the atoms in a material. This is closer to reality. The result was an equation that agrees very well with the experimental data.

This week's pick is the Chemistry of Elements (2nd Edition) . Published by Butterworth-Heinemann, the extensively updated second edition gives a balanced, coherent and comprehensive account of the chemistry of the elements for both undergraduate and postgraduate students. This crucial central area of chemistry is full of ingenious experiments and intriguing compounds. Such questions as: where do elements come from, how were they made, why do they have their observed terrestrial abundances, what determines their atomic weights, usually ignored in textbooks and difficult to answer, are actively pursued. Also covered are a brief description of chemical periodicity and the periodic table followed by the chemistry of the individual elements and their compounds.
