4. Periodicity
Elements in the PT are arranged in order of increasing atomic number.
Elements in the same group - same chemical and physical properties.
Across the period - repeating pattern of physical and chemical properties known as periodicity.

Radius :
half the distance between
neighbouring nuclei
(from nucleus to outermost electons)

7. Copyright McGraw-Hill 2009
Ionic Radius
When an atom gains or loses electrons, the radius changes
Cations are always smaller than their parent atoms (often losing an energy level)
Anions are always larger than their parent atoms (increased e repulsions)
Copyright McGraw-Hill 2009

8. Atomic & ionic radii down a group
Atomic radii is determined by 2 opposing factors
Shielding effect by the electrons of the inner shell(s)
Nuclear charge (due to protons)
Moving down the group, both the nuclear charge and shielding effect increase. However, the outer electrons enter new shells. So, although the nucleus gains protons, the electrons are not only further away, but also more effectively screened by an addtional shell of electrons.
Shielding effect – makes the atomic radius larger , the result of repulsion between the electrons in the inner shell and those in the outer shell.
Nuclear charge – an attractve force that pulls all the electrons closer to the nucleus. With an increase in nuclear charge, atomic radius becomes smaller.
Down the group, increase in atomic radius as the nuclear charge increases, due to 2 factors
The increase in the no. of complete electron shells between the outer electrons and the nucleus
- increasse in the shielding effect of the outer electrons by the inner electrons

9. Ionic radii for ions of the same charge also
increases down a group for the same reason.
Atomic radius increases down the group

What do you notice about the atomic radius across a period? Why?
Atomic radius decreases from left to right across a period due to increasing nuclear charge but no significant increase in the shielding effect. The force of attraction between the negatively charged valence electrons and the positive nucleus increases across the period.
What do you notice about the atomic radius down a column? Why?
Atomic radius increases down a column of the periodic table because the distance of the electron from the nucleus increases as n increases.

15. Ionisation Energy (IE)
The first ionisation energy is the energy required to remove one electron from one mole of gaseous atoms to produce 1 mole of gaseous ions each with a charge of 1+.

17. Things to remember about IE
When talking about first ionization energies (IE), everything must be in gas form
IE are measured in kilojoules per mole.
All elements have a first ionization energy, even those that do not form cations.
What can you conclude if their ionization energy is very high ?
It is difficult to lose an electron.

Na+(g)  Na2+(g) + e

• In an atom that possesses more than one electron, the amount of energy needed to remove successive electrons increases steadily.
• Define a first ionization energy as (1), a second ionization energy as (2) and in general an nth ionization energy (n) according to the equation
E(g)  E+(g) + e 1 = 1st ionization energy
E+(g)  E2+(g) + e 2 = 2nd ionization energy
E(n-1)+(g)  En+(g) + e n = nth ionization energy
The second, third, and fourth ionization energies of aluminum are higher
than the first because the inner electrons are more tightly held by the nucleus.

23. Copyright McGraw-Hill 2009
Explain
1. What do you notice about the 1st IE across a period? Why?
When moving across the period from left to right, the nuclear charge increases but the shielding effect only increases slightly (since electrons enter the same shell).
Hence, the electron shells are pulled progressively closer to the nucleus and it is harder to remove the valence electron.
Copyright McGraw-Hill 2009

24. Explain 2. What do you notice about the 1st IE down a column? Why?
The atomic radius increases down the group as additional electrons are added, causing the shielding effect to increase.
The further the outer shell is from the nucleus, the smaller the attractive force exerted by the protons in the nucleus.
More easily an outer electron can be removed, the lower the ionisation energy.

25. First ionisation across a period
When moving across the period from left to right, the nuclear charge increases but the shielding effect only increases slightly (since electrons enter the same shell).
Hence, the electron shells are pulled progressively closer to the nucleus.
BUT there are exceptions

28. Adding of electrons

29. Discussion B has lower IE than Be same shielding
greater nuclear charge

30. Factors affecting ionisation energy
The charge on the nucleus.
The distance of the electron from the nucleus.
The number of electrons between the outer electrons and the nucleus.
Whether the electron is on its own in an orbital or paired with another electron.

31. Limitation to Bohr’s Model
The first IE of the elt 3 (Li) to 10 (Ne) do not increase evenly.
There is a need for a more complex model of electron configurations than the Bohr model.
Each main energy level is an atom is made up of sub energy levels (subshells).

32. Plenary - K U I As a result of the lesson today I: Know… Understand…
Can use the information in the following other situations….

33. Electronegativity
The electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a covalent bond to attract shared pairs electrons to itself.
The greater the electronegativity of an atom, the greater its ability to attract shared pairs of electrons to itself.
Electronegativity value is based on the Pauling scale. A value of 4.0 is give to F (most electronegative atom). The least electronegative elements, Ce and Fr both have a value of 0.7

34. Trends in electronegativity
There is an increasing distance between the nucleus and electrons down the group. Hence, the attractive force is decreased.
Although the nuclear charge increases down the group, this is counteracted by the increased shielding effect due to additional electron shells.

35. Trends in melting point
Group I
Metals are held together by
metallic bonding.
The strength of metallic bonding decreases because the attractive forces between the delocalised electrons and the nuclues decreases owing to the increase in the distance. The increase in the nuclear charge is counteracted by the increase in shielding.
Group 7
As the molecules become large, the attractive forces between them increases with the number of electrons in atoms or molecules.
Metals are composed of a lattice of positive ions surrounded by delocalised electrons which move between the ions.

36. The melting point decreases down group 1
The melting point increases down group 7

General Trends in Chemical Properties
Elements in same group have same valence electron configuration; similar properties
Same group comparison most valid if elements have same metallic or nonmetallic character

40. Chemical Properties Group I alkali metals
Li, Na and K contain 1 valence electron.
Reactive metals, stored under liquid paraffin to prevent them from reacting with air.
Readily lose their valence electron -good reducing agent
Reactivity increases down the group
Soft metals of low density with a low melting point.
Form M+ cations.
Relatively low 1st IE and are therefore chemically reactive.
Strong reducing agent and ther ions are hard to reduce.
Reactivity increases down the group and correlates with a decrease in the 1st IE, due to the increasing distance between the nucleus and the valence electron.
Atomic and ioni radii increase and eletronegativity and melting point decreases down the group due to the presence of additional eletron shell.

2Ks) + I2(g)  2LiI(s)

43. Chemical Properties
Chlorine is a stronger oxidizing agent than bromine, so can remove the electron from bromide ions in solution to form chloride ions and bromine.
Similarly, both chlorine and bromine can oxidize iodide ions to form iodine.
Cl2(aq) + 2Br-(aq)  2Cl-(aq) + Br2(aq)
Cl2(aq) + 2I-(aq)  2Cl-(aq) + I2(aq)

Halogens are a group of reactive non-metals n group 7.
They all form X- ions
Reactivity increases up the group. This correlates with an increase in the 1st eletron affnity due to decreasing dstance between the nucleus and the inoming elecron.
