3. History of the Periodic Table
_______________ —arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass
Created a table in which elements with similar properties were grouped together
In this way, properties of undiscovered elements could be predicted
_______________ —arranged atoms according to increasing atomic number
Gave us the periodic law—the physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers
Produced a table in which elements with similar properties fell into the same column, or group.

5. S-Block Elements Group 1— __________________
Silvery appearance; Soft enough to cut with a knife
Extremely reactive, found as compounds in nature
Contains ____ valence electron (outermost energy level)
Group 2— ___________________
Harder than alkali metals
Although less abundant, still found as compounds in the Earth’s crust
Contains ____ valence electrons

6. P-Block Elements 6 Groups Group 13 – Boron Group 14 – Carbon
Always found combined with other elements in nature
Contains ___ valence electrons
Group 14 – Carbon
Group varies in many properties because?
Allotropes – forms of an element in the same state of matter, but have different physical and chemical properties
Example: diamond and graphite are both made of carbon and are both solids, they differ in their properties because they have different structures – they are isotopes.

7. Allotropes of Carbon
Example: diamond and graphite are both made of carbon and are both solids, they differ in their properties because they have different structures – they are isotopes.

13. Section 3
Periodic Trends

14. Atomic Radii What is it? Period Trend Group Trend
One-half the distance between the nuclei of identical atoms that are bonded together
Period Trend
Gradual ______________ in atomic radii from left to right
Electrons pulled closer by the increasing positive charge of the nucleus
Example:
Lithium is larger than Fluorine
Group Trend
Gradual ________________ down a group
As electrons occupy sublevels in higher energy levels farther from the nucleus, the sizes of the atoms increase
Positive charge of the nucleus is overridden by sheer number of electrons
Iodine is larger than fluorine

16. Ionization Energy (IE)
What is it?
The energy required to remove one electron from the outer shell of an atom
A + energy  A+ + e-
___________ —an atom or group of elements that has a positive or negative charge
Periodic Trend
Ionization Energy ____________ from left to right across a period
Caused by increasing positive charge of nucleus
Example: It takes more energy to remove an electron from fluorine than from lithium
Group Trend
______________ from top to bottom down groups
Increase in distance from the nucleus = decrease in attraction between the nucleus and electrons
Example: It takes less energy (easier) to remove an outer electron from Rubidium than from lithium

17. Removing electrons from positive ions
Second ionization energy—energy required to remove additional electrons from positive ions.
Requires much more energy than first ionization energy.
With each additional electron removed, the effect of nuclear charge increases on the electrons, making them increasingly more difficult to remove from the outer shell.

18. Electron Affinity What is it? Period Trend Group Trend
The difference in energy when an electron is added to a neutral atom.
Most atoms release energy (F and Cl). A + e-  A- + energy
Represented by a negative number.
Some require energy to gain an electron (N). (must be forced) A + e- + energy  A-
Represented by a positive number.
Period Trend
________________ from left to right (halogens gain electrons most readily)
Caused by increase in effective nuclear charge; want to be noble gases.
Group Trend
Generally ________________ down the group.
Caused by dominant increasing atomic radius which decreases effective nuclear charge.

20. Recall Rank in order of increasing atomic radius:
Mn, Ca, Cu, Br
Li, Rb, H, K
Rank in order of increasing ionization energy:
Al, P, S, Si
Sb, P, As, N

21. Ionic Radii What is it?? Periodic Trend Group Trend
The radii of the most common ions of the elements.
Positive ions—___________ (loss of electrons) A+
Negative ions—__________ (gain of electrons) A-
Periodic Trend
Cation radii—_____________ from left to right
Electron cloud shrinks due to increasing nuclear charge and the removal of higher- energy level electrons.
Anion radii—______________ from left to right
Electron cloud increases due to a decrease in nuclear charge as electrons are added, and an increase in repulsion due to increased number of negatively-charged electrons.
Group Trend
Gradual _______________ in ionic radii as you go down a group.

22. __________________ is the most electronegative atom
Electronegativity
What is it??
The ability of an atom in a compound to attract electrons from another atom in the compound.
Periodic Trend
_____________ from left to right
Due to increasing effective nuclear charge
Group Trend
______________ from top to bottom
__________________ is the most electronegative atom

23. Valence Electrons
Chemical compounds are formed because electrons are lost, gained or shared
Only the __________ electrons are involved in forming compounds
___________ electrons – electrons available to be lost, gained or shared in the formation of chemical compounds
Ex: an electron lost from the 3s sublevel of Na would form Na+

24. Ion Formation
