1. Chemistry Riddle
Q: What is a robber’s least favorite element?
A: Copper!!!

2. Introduction to Periodic Trends

3. Remember these groups of the periodic table?

4. The Periodic Law
When elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic repetition of their physical and chemical properties.

5. Classifying Elements by Electron Configuration
Remember…electrons play the most significant role in determining physical and chemical properties of elements.
Elements are arranged in the table according to their properties.
Therefore, there should be some relationship between the electron configurations of the elements and their placement in the table.

6. How the configurations of the noble gases similar?

They all end in s1!

8. Alkaline earth metals all end in s2.He s2
Alkaline earth metals might include He, but He fits better with the noble gases.
He has similar properties to the noble gases because its outer energy level is completely full.
How would the halogens all end? p5

9. Periodic Trends
These patterns in electron configurations produce patterns in properties.
These patterns are called Periodic Trends.
Can be followed either across a period or down a group

10. Five Trends Atomic Size Ion Size Ionization Energy Electron Affinity
Electronegativity

11. Influenced by two factors: 1. Energy level
Periodic Trends
Influenced by two factors:
1. Energy level
At higher energy levels the electron is further away from nucleus.
2. Charge on nucleus (# protons)
More protons means a greater charge pulls electrons in closer.

12. Problem: Where do you start measuring from?
Trends in Atomic Size
Problem: Where do you start measuring from?
The electron cloud doesn’t have a definite edge.
This problem is solved by measuring more than 1 atom at a time.

13. } Trends in Atomic Size Radius
Measure the distance between the two nuclei of a diatomic molecule. Half of this distance is the atomic radius.

14. Atomic Size - Group TrendH
As we go down a group…
Each atom has another energy level
So the atoms get bigger. Li Na
OBVIOUS!! K Rb

15. Atomic Size - Period Trend
Going from left to right across a period, the size gets smaller.
Electrons are in the same energy level.
But, there is more nuclear charge (more protons).
So…outermost electrons are pulled in closer.
NOT SO OBVIOUS!! Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar

16. Atomic radius increases
Atomic radius decreases
Atomic radius increases

17. Ionization Energy Electronegativity Electron Affinity

Ion Size
Ionization Energy Electronegativity
Electron Affinity

18. Ion Size To form ions, atoms may gain or lose electrons.
If an atom loses electrons, a positive ion is formed called a cation.
Metals tend to lose electrons.
This cation is smaller than the atom from which it formed.
It now has fewer occupied energy levels.

19. Ion Size
When an atom gains electrons, a negative ion is formed called an anion.
Nonmetals tend to gain electrons.
This anion is larger than the atom from which it was formed.
The period and group trends for ions are the same as atomic radius….except in the period trend when you cross the metal-nonmetal dividing line.

20. Ion Size Period Trend N3- O2- F1- B3+ Li1+ Be2+ C4+
Cations—Atoms that have lost electrons to become positively charged.
Anions—Atoms that have gained electrons to become negatively charged.
Smaller than the original, but showing the same trend in size.
Larger than the original, but showing the same trend in size.

21. Ionization Energy
The amount of energy required to completely remove an electron from an atom.
Removing one electron makes a +1 ion
The energy required to remove the outermost electron is called the first ionization energy.
Also known as…IE

22. Ionization Energy Trends
As you go across a period…
The electrons are closer to the positive nucleus and therefore harder to pull off.
The harder it is to pull off the electron, the higher the ionization energy.

23. Ionization Energy Trends
As you go down a group…
The electrons are farther away from the positive nucleus and therefore easier to pull off.
There are more electrons shielding the outer electrons from the positive nucleus, making them easier to pull off.
The easier it is to pull off the electron, the lower the ionization energy.

24. Ionization Energy Trends
(Generally) Increases
Decreases

25. Ionization Energy Graph

26. Electron Affinity Trends
Ability for a neutral atom to acquire an electron is known as it’s
Trend:
Increase across the period
Hence the high reactivity of Halogen
No general trend for the groups
Electron Affinity

27. Electron Affinity Trends
Increases
Noble Gases do not have an affinity for electrons.
NO definite pattern

28. Electronegativity
The tendency for an atom to attract electrons to itself when it is chemically bonded to another element(s).
Measures how fair an atom shares electrons.
Large electronegativity means it pulls the electron toward it strongly.
Fluorine is the most electronegative element

29. Electronegativity Trends
Increases
Noble Gases are not electro-negative. F
Fluorine is the most electronegative element.
Decreases

30. Chemistry Riddle

What is it?
It’s formaldehyde!!

31. Diatomic Molecules 7 elements Beginning with element 7

If they are not with another element, they bond with themselves. 1 H He 2 Li Be S C N O F Ne 3 Na Mg Al Si P Cl Ar 4 K Ca Sc Ti V Cr Mn Fe Co Ni Cu Zn Ga Ge As Se Br Kr 5 Rb Sr Y Zr Nb Mo Tc Ru Rh Pd Ag Cd In Sn Sb Te I Xe 6 Cs Ba La Hf Ta W Re Os Ir Pt Au Hg Tl Pb Bi Po At Rn 7 Fr Ra Ac Rf Db Sg Bh Hs Mt Ds Rg
