Periodic Table Mysteries Unraveled! Periodic trends Ch 5
Periodic LAW When elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic repetition of the physical and chemical properties.
Organization of Periodic table Metals Luster and shine Good conductor of electricity and heat Malleable Nonmetals Many are gasses at room temperature No luster or shine, bad conductors of electricity and heat. Semimetals Metalloids These have properties of both
Valence electrons Group 1A: H: 1s 1 Li: 1s 2 2s 1 Na: 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 1
Size
Atomic Radii Distance from the center of the atom’s nucleus to it’s outer most electron. Take the diameter divided in half. OR the ½ the distance between the two nuclei.
Ionization Energy What is an Ion? Cation vs anion
Ionization Energy Energy needed to remove the first electron from an atom. Group Trends: Ionization energy decreases as atomic number increases. Period Trends: Ionization energy increases from left to right The larger the atom the easier it is to take an electron from the atom.
Electronegativity The ability of an atom to attract electrons in a compound. NOBLE GASSES DO NOT COUNT! Electronegativity increases from left to right Electronegativity decreases from top to bottom.
Electron Affinity The energy change that occurs when it gains an extra electron. Can have positive and negative electron affinity –Some elements release energy when they get an electron. Ne (g) + e - Ne - (g)29 kJ/mol F (g) + e - F - (g) -328 kJ/mol
