The Periodic Table F Block
(aka the Lanthanides and Actinides or the lesser known elements)
Some basics to know before exploring the Periodic Tables F

Block:
The periodic table is arranged by atomic number, so it is
arranged by increasing electron count.
The ground state electron configuration follows the Aufbau
filling order, so the periodic table is arranged according to
quantum mechanics.
Periods correspond roughly to n values. Block regions on
the table correspond to subshells.
All of this builds to
the basic idea of
ELECTRON
CONFIGURATION
Electron
Configuration
The Aufbau filling order is 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f

5d 6p 7s 5f 6d 7p.
Note that the first shell to have a p subshell is shell number 2;

the first to have a d subshell is shell number 3; and the first to
have an f subshell is shell number 4.
Groups 1 and 2 of the periodic table are referred to as the s

block because these elements have outer electrons in an s
orbital.
Groups 13 through 18 are referred to as the p block because

these elements have outer electrons in a p subshell.
Groups 3 through 12 are referred to as the d block and the inner

transition elements are the f block.
