Figures those in bold to Tables

The semimetals, or metalloids, are known to exhibit some of the properties of metals and some of those of nonmetals. The semimetals are B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, and At. They are highlighted in bold in the partial periodic table in Figure 4.1. The elements located to the left of the semimetals are the metals those to the right of the semimetals are the nonmetals. Identifying an element as a metal, nonmetal, or semimetal is important in identifying periodic trends and in identifying the types of bonds that atoms will form with each other. 

The reactive bonds are C-H in reactant and product, marked in bold. Although the correct values of the force constants and bond lengths of those bonds are not known, one can employ values typical for the CH bond in organic molecules [33] fr = fp = fcH= 2.9 x 10 kJ mol A 2, lj+lp=2 ICH = 2.192 A. Eq (1) with T= 298 K allows the estimation of AG as presented in Table 1 then one can employ eq(35) to estimate the reactant bond extension and from that and the reaction energy values AG, eq(34) allows the estimation of d. Finally, T can be calculated through (eq(17)). These relevant data are presented in Table 1 and in Figure 5. 

Mendeleev s procedure left several empty spaces in his periodic table (see Figure 1.2). In 1871, the Russian chemist boldly predicted the existence and properties of the elements that would fill three of the spaces. By 1886, all three elements had been discovered. Today these elements are known as scandium. Sc, gallium, Ga and germanium, Ge. Their properties are strikingly similar to those predicted by Mendeleev. 

Adenosine Receptors. Figure 3 An alignment of the primary sequences of the four human AR subtypes. Regions of conservation are highlighted. indicates the most conserved (X.50) residue in each TM region. Bold residues correspond to those indicated in Table 1. The A2A receptor is truncated in the carboxy-terminal region. 

The Periodic Table can be divided into two as shown by the bold line that starts beneath boron, in Figure 9.3. The elements to the left of this line are metals (fewer than three-quarters) and those on the right are non-metals (fewer than one-quarter). The elements which lie on this dividing line are known as metalloids (Figure 9.5). These elements behave in some ways as metals and in others as non-metals.
