2. SCREENING AND PENETRATION PENETRATIONIs to get close to the nucleus SCREENINGIs to block the view of other electrons of the nucleus LOOK AT RADIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS

3. In a multi-electron atomZ eff (s) > Z eff (p) > Z eff (d) E 4s < E 3d ENERGY LEVELS REVERSE!! S-orbital penetrates closer to nucleus

4. Closer proximity to nucleus  Higher effective nuclear charge, Z eff

5. 1s1s E 2s2s 2p2p 3s3s 3p3p 3d3d 4s4s 4p4p 5s5s 4d4d The result is that 4s lies below 3d

6. Atoms, molecules or ions with all electrons paired are diamagnetic. Diamagnetic materials are weakly repelled by magnetic fields MAGNETIC PROPERTIES Example: 1s2s2p1s2s2p Ne1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 NEON ALL ELECTRONS PAIRED

7. Spin quantum number Electrons are influenced by a magnetic field as though they were spinning charges. They are not really, but we think of them as having “spin up” or “spin down” levels.

8. Atoms, molecules or ions with at least one unpaired electron are paramagnetic. Paramagnetic materials are strongly attracted to magnetic fields. MAGNETIC PROPERTIES 1s2s2p1s2s2p N1s22s22p3N1s22s22p3 Nitrogen atom is PARAMAGNETIC

9. Which of these is paramagnetic? –NaCa –K + O 2 

10. PERIODIC TRENDS We will look at some trends in experimentally determined properties such as: IONIZATION ENERGIES ELECTRON AFFINITIES ATOMIC RADII IONIC RADII

11. TRENDS IN ATOMIC RADII FOR GROUPS 1,2 and 13 to 18 Orbitals bigger as n increases Radial probability density extends further. ATOMIC RADIUS Atomic radii increase down the group

13. TRENDS IN ATOMIC RADII FOR GROUPS 1,2 and 13 to 18 ATOMIC RADIUS Atomic radii decrease across a period

14. SCREENING AND PENETRATION ATOMIC RADIUS DECREASES ACROSS PERIOD! WHY?AS WE ADD ELECTRONS The electrons go into same shell and do not screen the nucleus from each other As nuclear charge goes up, so does Z eff Therefore radial probability pulled in….

15. Z eff increases.. no screening.. radius decreases

16. Z eff INCREASES RADIUS DECREASES DOWN GROUP...

17. Z eff DECREASES RADIUS INCREASES

19. FOR GROUPS 1,2 and 13 to 18 TRENDS IN IONIC RADII Same reasons as for atomic radii……. Cations and anions…... IONIC RADIUS

21. Cations are smaller than their corresponding neutral atoms. Anions are larger than their corresponding neutral atoms. Na is 186 pm and Na + is 95 pm F is 64 pm and F - is 133 pm same nuclear charge and repulsion among electrons increases radius One less electron electrons pulled in by nuclear charge O < O – < O 2– QUESTIONS…...

22. ISOELECTRONIC SPECIES? EXAMPLES Which is bigger? Na or Rb Rb …. higher n, bigger orbitals K or Ca K …. poorer screening for Ca Ca or Ca 2+ Ca …. bigger than cation Br or Br - Br …. smaller than anion What about

23. QUESTION The species F -, Na +,Mg 2+ have relative sizes in which order? 1F - < Na + <Mg 2+ 2F - > Na + >Mg 2+ 3Na + >Mg 2+ > F - 4Na + =Mg 2+ = F - 5 Mg 2+ > Na + >F - ALL 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 ALL are isoelectronic

24. QUESTION The species F -, Na +,Mg 2+ have relative sizes in which order ? 1F - < Na + <Mg 2+ 2F - > Na + >Mg 2+ 3Na + >Mg 2+ > F - 4Na + =Mg 2+ = F - 5 Mg 2+ > Na + >F - Check numbers Na + is 95 pm Mg 2+ is 66 pm F - is 133 pm

25. ELECTRON AFFINITY the energy change associated with the addition of an electron to a gaseous atom. X + e –  X – In general no clear cut trends……. F(g) + e –  F – (g)  E= -328 kJmol -1 EA =  E the electron affinity is negative if  E<0. TWO DEFINITIONS! the electron affinity is positive if  E<0. EA = -  E

26. TRENDS IN EA ELECTRON AFFINITY MORE NEGATIVE ELECTRON AFFINITY MORE NEGATIVE ELECTRON AFFINITY MORE NEGATIVE

27. ELECTRON AFFINITIES What is special about … He, Ne and Ar? Be, N and Mg?

28. He, Ne, Ar: rare gases … adding electron to filled shell … must increase n Be, Mg: alkali earths … adding electron to filled sub-shell … must increase l N: Hund’s rule stability… adding electron to ½-filled degenerate p-shell Q: what would you predict for… Cr, Fe?

29. TRENDS IN IONIZATION ENERGIES The ionization energy of gaseous atoms M(g)  M + (g) + e - of the elements have been measured…. And we find…….

30. TRENDS IN FIRST IE Electrons closer to nucleus more tightly held Z eff DECREASES Z eff INCREASES UP THE GROUP IONIZATION ENERGY First Ionization energies decrease down the group

31. TRENDS IN FIRST IE Greater effective nuclear charge across period Poor shielding by electrons added Z eff INCREASES IONIZATION ENERGY

32. TRENDS IN FIRST IE

34. The noble gases have the highest ionization energy! Closed shells most stable
