3. Effective Nuclear Charge Effective Nuclear Charge - (Z eff ) – the charge an electron “feels” from the nucleus Effective Nuclear Charge - (Z eff ) – the charge an electron “feels” from the nucleus Z eff = Z – S, where Z is the atomic number and S is the shielding experienced by the outer electrons Z eff = Z – S, where Z is the atomic number and S is the shielding experienced by the outer electrons The electrons in the outer energy levels don’t feel the full charge of the nucleus because the core electrons help shield them from the nucleus. The electrons in the outer energy levels don’t feel the full charge of the nucleus because the core electrons help shield them from the nucleus.

4. Atomic Radius Atomic radius – the radius of an atom Atomic radius – the radius of an atom Several methods of determining the radius - usually measure the distance between two atoms Several methods of determining the radius - usually measure the distance between two atoms Not all values are completely consistent with each other. Not all values are completely consistent with each other.

5. Ionization Energy Ionization Energy – the energy required to remove one electron from an atom Ionization Energy – the energy required to remove one electron from an atom Essentially this is the process of making a positive ion. Essentially this is the process of making a positive ion. X  X + + e -

6. Electronegativity Electronegativity – the ability of an atom in a compound to attract electrons to itself Electronegativity – the ability of an atom in a compound to attract electrons to itself Electrons in compounds spend the most time around atoms with high electronegativities. Electrons in compounds spend the most time around atoms with high electronegativities. Elements with high electronegativities have partial negative charges in compounds. Elements with high electronegativities have partial negative charges in compounds.
