Q

What is the periodic trend of electronegativity? Explain.

A

Increase across a period
Decrease down a group

As electrostatic attraction between bonding electrons and nuclei increases, electronegativity will increase

Q

What is the first electron affinity?

A

The enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms acquires one mole of electrons to form one mole of singly negatively charged gaseous ions

S(g) + e- –> S- (g)

Q

Is first electron affinity exo or endothermic?

16
Q

What is the exception for first electron affinity? Why?

A

Nitrogen
Addition of an extra electron –> Energy needed to overcome the inter-electronic repulsion between the paired electrons –> Less exothermic

17
Q

How to explain fluorine and oxygen for electron affinity?

A

Energy released when nucleus attracts an electron is far greater than energy needed to overcome inter-electronic repulsion

18
Q

Defi of second electron affinity?

A

The enthalpy change when one mole of singly negatively-charged gaseous ions acquires one mole of electrons to form one mole of doubly negatively-charged gaseous ions

19
Q

What is the enthalpy change for second electron affinity? Why?

A

Endothermic
Always positive enthalpy, meaning we need energy
To overcome repulsion between 2 negatively-charged species (electron & anion)

20
Q

Between period 2 & 3, what are the giant covalent structures (elements)

A

Boron, Silicon, Carbon (can also form C60)

21
Q

What are the simple molecules between periods 2 & 3 (elements only)?

A

C60, N2, O2, F2, P4, S8, Cl2

22
Q

What is the periodic trend for melting point for metals?

What is one exception to take note of for period 3?

A

Increases across a period

Silicon is higher than Al due to its giant covalent structure

23
Q

Why does metallic bond strength increase across the period?

A
  1. Decrease in metallic radius
  2. Increase in no. of electrons donated per atom to the mobile sea of electrons

==> Increase in charge density

24
Q

What is the periodic trend for non-metals?

A

Decreases across a period
Increases down a group

Due to LDF increasing down a group due to larger electron clouds

25
Q

What is the trend of melting points down group 1?

A

Decreases down the group
Decrease in strength of metallic bond
Decrease in EFOA between cations & sea of delocalised electrons

26
Q

What is the trend of melting points down group 17?

A

Increases down the group

Increase in LDF

27
Q

What is the trend of reactivity of group 1 & 17?

A

Group 1: Increases down the group

Group 17: Decreases down the group

28
Q

A

Metal hydroxide + hydrogen gas

29
Q
