2
Periodic table: trends in chemical and physical properties that occur within the same groups and periods First attempt (Mendeleev and Meyer) elements arranged in order of increasing atomic weight Modern periodic table: elements arranged in order of increasing atomic number
3
Effective nuclear charge (Z eff ): positive charge felt by a valence electron in a many-electron atom Depends on its distance from the nucleus and the number of core electrons Core electrons block, or screen, valence e - from the full attraction of the nucleus As average number of screening/core electrons (S) increases, effective nuclear charge decreases As distance from the nucleus increases, S increases and Z eff decreases
4
Mg: [Ne]3s 2 Z = 12 S = core e - = 10 Z – S = 12 – 10 = 2
5
Effective nuclear charge… › Increases as you move across a period Number of core e-, S, remains the same Atomic number increases; higher nuclear charge, Z Valence e- added to counter charge of p+, but valence e- don’t shield one another › Decreases as you go down a group Large e- cores (think atomic radius) aren’t able to screen valence e- from the nuclear charge
6
Bounce two of the same atoms off each other (B) The distance between two nuclei is the nonbonding atomic radius (aka: van der Waals radius) + - - - - -+ - - - - - B rad
7
Homonuclear diatomic molecule Distance between 2 nuclei is bond length Half the bond length is the bonding atomic radius
8
Decrease in atomic radius across a period › Effective nuclear charge increases, drawing the electrons in towards the nucleus very tightly Increase in atomic radius down a group › As the principal quantum number increases, the probability of finding the electrons further from the nucleus increases
10
Arrange the following atoms in order of increasing atomic size: › Mg, Ca, Sr › B, F, Ge, Pb
11
Ionic radius: distance between ions in an ionic compound When atoms form ions, they tend to achieve a full valence shell by either losing e- or gaining e- Cations are smaller than parent atom › Outermost orbital is emptied - decreasing radius of the ion Anions are larger than parent atom › Outermost orbital fills up, taking up more space
13
For ions of the same charge, ion size increases down a group Ion size decreases across a period ASIDE: Transition metals lose electrons in outermost orbital first! › Ex.: Fe(3d 6 4s 2 ) Fe 3+ (3d 5 ) + 3e -
14
Isoelectric series: group of ions containing the same number of electrons Ex: Se 2-, Br -, Rb +, Sr 2+, Y 3+ › Se 2- = atomic # 34 (36 e - ) › Br - = atomic # 35 (36 e - ) › Rb + = atomic # 37 (36 e - ) › Sr 2+ = atomic # 38 (36 e - ) › Y 3+ = atomic # 39 (36 e - ) Ionic size in isoelectric series decreases with increasing atomic number due to increasing effective nuclear charge
15
Ionization energy (I): minimum energy required to remove an e - from a gaseous atom or ion › The larger the ionization energy, the harder it is to remove the e - First ionization energy (I 1 ): energy needed to remove 1 st e- from neutral atom › Na (g) Na + (g) + e - (g) I 1 = +496 kJ/mol Second ionization energy (I 2 ): energy needed to remove 2 nd e - › Na + (g) Na 2+ (g) + e - (g) I 2 = +4562 kJ/mol
16
Each successive ionization energy is higher than the previous Sharp increase in ionization energy when a core e - is removed
17
Decreases as you move down a group and atomic number gets larger › Outermost e - is easier to remove as you go down a group and atom gets bigger Increases as you move across a period › Outermost e - is harder to remove as you go across a period and atom gets smaller
19
Electron affinity (E): energy change associated with adding an e - to a gaseous atom or ion › I (g) + e - (g) I - (g) ΔE = -295 kJ/mol For most atoms, energy is usually released when an e - is added › Negative value
20
Puts an e- in a new (higher energy) subshell (unfavorable) Ne (g) = e - (g) Ne - (g) ΔE > 0 To determine whether e - affinity is (+) or (-), look at e - configuration: › Do you have to add the e - to a higher energy orbital or subshell? › Ne = 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 › Ne - = 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 1
22
Ionization Energy Electron Affinity How easily an atom or ion loses an e - Forms consecutively more (+) species Measure of how tightly an e - is held on to Usually requires energy [(+) value] How easily an atom or ion gains an e - Forms consecutively more (-) species Measure of attraction for an outside e - Usually releases energy [(-) value]
23
What is the ionization energy for F - (g) if the electron affinity for F (g) is -328 kJ/mol? Which member of each ion pair has the higher ionization energy? Why? › Sodium or rubidium › Silicon or phosphorous Which element has the higher electron affinity, sulfur or chlorine?
24
Metals Nonmetals Shiny luster Various colors, but most are silvery Malleable and ductile Good conductors Metal oxides form bases in H 2 O Form cations in solution All are solids at RT (except Hg) No luster Various colors Brittle Poor conductors Nonmetal oxides form acids in H 2 O Form anions in solution Solids, gases, and liquid at RT
25
Metals form cations Low ionization energies Metallic character: › Increases down a group › Decreases across a period
27
When metals are oxidized they form characteristic cations: › Group 1A metals: 1+ ions › Group 2A metals: 2+ ions › Most transition metals have variable charges
29
Form anions › When nonmetals react with metals, nonmetals gain e- and metals lose e- Metal + Nonmetal Salt 2Al (s) + 3Br 2(l) 2AlBr 3(s) When nonmetals are reduced they form characteristic anions › Group 7A nonmetals 1- ions › Group 6A nonmetals 2- ions › Group 5A nonmetals 3- ions
30
Soft Chemistry dominated by loss of single e- › M M + + e - Reactivity increases down the group b/c easier to lose e- Alkali metals react with water to form MOH and H 2 gas › 2M (s) + 2H 2 O (l) 2MOH (aq) + H 2(g)
31
Alkali metal ions are reduced to metal gas atoms that emit characteristic colors when placed in a high temp flame “s” e - is excited by flame and jumps to “p” sublevel and then emits light energy when it returns to ground state Na line (589 nm): 3p 3s transition Li line: 2p 2s transition K line: 4p 4s transition
32
Harder and more dense Chemistry dominated by loss of 2 e- › M M 2+ + 2e - Reactivity increases down the group b/c easier to lose e-
33
Very unique element that forms › Colorless diatomic gas, H 2 › Metallic solid at high pressures › Can behave as a cation or anion: 2Na (s) + H 2(g) 2NaH (s) less common (H - ; hydride) H 2(g) + Cl 2(g) 2HCl (g) most common (H + ; proton)
34
Metallic character increases down the group › O 2 colorless gas; others are solids › Te is a metalloid, Po is a metal, etc. Gain e- to form 2- anions 2 important forms of oxygen: O 2 & O 3 3O 2(g) 2O 3(g) H = +284.6 kJ O 2 : potent oxidizing agent › Two oxidation states for oxygen: › 2- (Ex. H 2 O) › 1- (Ex. H 2 O 2 )
35
All form diatomic molecules › F 2 and Cl 2 gases; Br 2 liquid; I 2 solid Gain an e - to form an anion X 2 + 2e - 2X - Fluorine is one of the most reactive substances known 2F 2(g) + 2H 2 O (l) 4HF (aq) + O 2(g) H = -758.7 kJ All react with metals to produce ionic halide salts Mg (s) + Cl 2(g) MgCl 2(s) All react with hydrogen gas to form gaseous hydrogen halide compounds Cl 2(g) + H 2(g) 2HCl (g)
36
All monatomic Notoriously unreactive Have completely filled s and p subshells In 1962 the first compound of the noble gases was prepared: XeF 2, XeF 4, and XeF 6 › Why these particular compounds?
