2. Periodic Properties of the Elements Development of Periodic Table Elements in the same group generally have similar chemical properties. Properties are not identical, however.

3. Periodic Properties of the Elements Periodic Trends In this chapter, we will rationalize observed trends in  Sizes of atoms and ions.  Ionization energy.  Electron affinity.

4. Periodic Properties of the Elements Effective Nuclear Charge In a many-electron atom, electrons are both attracted to the nucleus and repelled by other electrons. The nuclear charge that an electron experiences depends on both factors.

5. Periodic Properties of the Elements Effective Nuclear Charge The effective nuclear charge, Z eff, is found this way: Z eff = Z − S Where: Z is the atomic number S is a screening constant, usually close to the number of inner electrons.

6. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Atoms The bonding atomic radius is defined as one-half of the distance between covalently bonded nuclei.

7. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Atoms Bonding atomic radius tends to… …increase from top to bottom of a column due to increasing value of n …increase from right to left across a row due to increasing Z eff. Effective Nuclear Charge for Valence Electrons FNeNa +7+8+1

8. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Ions Ionic size depends upon:  Nuclear charge.  Number of electrons.  Orbitals in which electrons reside.

9. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Ions Cations are smaller than their parent atoms.  The outermost electron is removed and repulsions are reduced.

10. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Ions Anions are larger than their parent atoms.  Electrons are added and repulsions are increased.

11. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Ions Ions increase in size as you go down a column.  Due to increasing value of n.

12. Periodic Properties of the Elements Sizes of Ions In an isoelectronic series, ions have the same number of electrons.

13. Periodic Properties of the Elements Ionization Energy Amount of energy required to remove an electron from the ground state of a gaseous atom or ion.  First ionization energy is that energy required to remove first electron.  Second ionization energy is that energy required to remove second electron, etc.

14. Periodic Properties of the Elements Ionization Energy It requires more energy to remove each successive electron. When all valence electrons have been removed, the ionization energy takes a quantum leap.

15. Periodic Properties of the Elements Trends in First Ionization Energies As one goes down a column, less energy is required to remove the first electron.  For atoms in the same group, Z eff is essentially the same, but the valence electrons are farther from the nucleus.

16. Periodic Properties of the Elements Trends in First Ionization Energies Generally, as one goes across a row, it gets harder to remove an electron.  As you go from right to left, Z eff increases.

17. Periodic Properties of the Elements Electron Affinity Energy change accompanying addition of electron to gaseous atom: Cl + e −  Cl −

18. Periodic Properties of the Elements Trends in Electron Affinity Cl: -349 kJ/mol Large number indicates that it forms a stable negative ion Small numbers indicate that a less stable negative ion is formed Groups 6 and 7 in the periodic table have the largest electron affinities. Groups 2 and noble gases do not form stable negative ions.

19. Periodic Properties of the Elements Properties of Metal, Nonmetals, and Metalloids

20. Periodic Properties of the Elements Metals versus Nonmetals Differences between metals and nonmetals tend to revolve around these properties.

21. Periodic Properties of the Elements Metals versus Nonmetals Metals tend to form cations. Nonmetals tend to form anions.

22. Periodic Properties of the Elements Metals Tend to be lustrous, malleable, ductile, and good conductors of heat and electricity.

23. Periodic Properties of the Elements Metals Compounds formed between metals and nonmetals tend to be ionic. Metal oxides tend to be basic.

24. Periodic Properties of the Elements Nonmetals Dull, brittle substances that are poor conductors of heat and electricity. Tend to gain electrons in reactions with metals to acquire noble gas configuration.

25. Periodic Properties of the Elements Nonmetals Substances containing only nonmetals are molecular compounds. Most nonmetal oxides are acidic.

26. Periodic Properties of the Elements Metalloids Have some characteristics of metals, some of nonmetals. For instance, silicon looks shiny, but is brittle and fairly poor conductor.

27. Periodic Properties of the Elements Group Trends

28. Periodic Properties of the Elements Alkali Metals Soft, metallic solids Found only as compounds in nature. Have low densities and melting points. Also have low ionization energies.

29. Periodic Properties of the Elements Alkali Metals Their reactions with water are famously exothermic.

30. Periodic Properties of the Elements Alkali Metals Alkali metals (except Li) react with oxygen to form peroxides. Produce bright colors when placed in flame. Lithiumsodiumrubidium

31. Periodic Properties of the Elements Alkaline Earth Metals Have higher densities and melting points than alkali metals. Have low ionization energies, but not as low as alkali metals.

32. Periodic Properties of the Elements Alkaline Earth Metals Be  does not react with water Mg  reacts only with steam, but others react readily with water. Reactivity tends to increase as go down group.

33. Periodic Properties of the Elements Group VIIA: Halogens Prototypical nonmetals Name comes from the Greek halos and gennao: “salt formers”

34. Periodic Properties of the Elements Group VIIA: Halogens Large, negative electron affinities  Therefore, tend to oxidize other elements easily React directly with metals to form metal halides Chlorine added to water supplies to serve as disinfectant

35. Periodic Properties of the Elements Group VIIIA: Noble Gases Astronomical ionization energies Positive electron affinities  Therefore, relatively unreactive Monatomic gases

36. Periodic Properties of the Elements Group VIIIA: Noble Gases Xe forms three compounds:  XeF 2  XeF 4 (at right)  XeF 6 Kr forms only one stable compound:  KrF 2
