We use the radial probability distributions, as well as the concepts of screening and penetration to understand the periodic properties of the elements.
E4s < E3d In a multi-electron atom Zeff(s) > Zeff(p) > Zeff(d) ENERGY LEVELS REVERSE!! E4s < E3d S-orbital penetrates closer to nucleus
Closer proximity to nucleus Higher effective nuclear charge, Zeff
Increasing n Shielding by inner shells Increasing Zeff Similar shielding
Atomic volume … density
The Values of First Ionization Energy for the Elements in the First Six Periods
Trends in Ionization Energies for the Representative Elements
Radii and ionization energies both show trends due to shielding and Zeff effects
The Electronic Affinity Values for Atoms Among the First 20 Elements that Form Stable, Isolated X- Ions Rough trend is increasing exothermicity across the table
