Q

Coulomb’s Law:

A

The attractive force between an atom’s protons and electrons is directly proportional to the number of protons (effective charge = Zeff) and indirectly proportional to the square of the distance between the nucleus and the electrons

Q

When an electron is in a higher energy level, it is ____ away from the nucleus, therefore has ____ coulombic attraction to the nucleus and is therefore easier to remove (lower 1st ionization energy)

A

It is FARTHER away, has LESS coulombic attraction

17
Q

Moving across a row on the periodic table, the Zeff _______, therefore the valence electrons are more attracted to the nucleus, therefore the atomic radius _______ and the ionization energy ________

A

the Zeff INCREASES, therefore the atomic radius DECREASES and the ionization energy INCREASES

18
Q

Elements in the same group have _____ chemical and physical properties

A

SIMILAR chemical and physical properties

19
Q

On the periodic table metals are on the ____ side of the zig-zag line and the nonmetals are on the ___ side of this line

A

Metals = Left
Nonmetals = right

20
Q

Cations (+) are _______ than their atoms since you are ______ valence electrons that are farther from the nucleus

A

SMALLER than their atoms, REMOVING valence electrons

21
Q

Anions (-) are ____ than their atoms since ______ eletrons increases electron-electron repulsions without increasing nuclear charge

A

LARGER than their atoms since ADDING electrons increases…
