3.1 the periodic table Flashcards

1
Q

how is the periodic table arranged

A

.in order of increasing proton number
.elements on the same period = same number of shells
.elements on the same group = same num of outer electrons(similar chemical properties)

Q

what happens to atomic radius as you go along a period

A

.it decreases
.due to increase in nuclear charge with the same amount of shells = greater attraction to outer electrons = outer pulled closer to nucleus

Q

what happens to atomic radius as you go down a group

A

.it increases
.as you go down = 1 more electron shell = + distance between outer electrons and nucleus = less attraction
.more shells = more electron shielding = less nuclear attraction = atomic radius increases

Q

what does a large jump in successive ionisation energy mean

A

.which group the element is in
e.g. a big jump between 3rd and 4th means that there were 3 outer electrons on the shell meaning that is was in group 3

Q

what is the first ionisation energy trend in period 2

A

.general increase = - atomic radius and + nuclear charge

.boron is lower = energy diff between 2s and 2p sub-shell = electron being removed from a higher energy level = further away = held less strongly

.oxygen is lower = repulsion within 2p orbital = destabilising compared to N = easer to be removed

Q

what is the first ionisation energy trend in period 3

A

.general increase = decreasing atomic radius and increasing nuclear charge = held more strongly

.aluminium is lower = energy diff between 3s and 3p = higher energy level = further from nucleus = held less strongly

metallic bonding trend

A

.greater charge on positive ion = stronger force of attraction

Q

what are metallic properties

A

.good conductors as sea of delocalised electrons is able to move and carry flow
.malleable as the layers of positive ions can slide over each other
.high mp as the electrostatic forces of attraction are strong = require alot of energy to overcome

Q

what is the melting points of period 2 elements

A

.lithium and beryllium = giant metallic = strong attraction between posi ion and electrons = metallic bonding = Be higher due to more outer electrons with same num of shell = smaller atomic radius = stronger attraction

.boron and carbon = gaint covalent = stronger covalent bonds = more energy to break = higher bp = C higher due to more outer electrons in same num of shells = smaller atomic radius = stronger attraction

.last four = small simple covalent molecules = weak van der waals = less energy to break = low mp

Q

melting points of period 3 elements

A

.sodium, magnesium and aluminium = giant metallic = strong attraction between posi ion and electrons = metallic bonding = Al highest due to more outer electrons with same num of shell = smaller atomic radius = stronger attraction

.silicon is a giant covalent = stonger covalent bonds = more energy to break = higher mp

.P,S,Cl,Ar = simple covalent molecules = weaker van der waals = less energy = lower mp

A

metal hydroxide(alkaline) + hydrogen

Mg + 2H2O —> Mg(OH)2 + H2

19
Q

physical propeties of group 2 elements

A

.atomic radius increase down group = as more electron shells
.increased electron shielding and atomic radius down group = outer electrons held weaker = easier to lose = reactivity increases
.1st and 2nd ionisation energies decrease down the group due to greater atomic radius and electron shielding = easier to remove electrons

30
Q

halogen physical properties

A

.atomic radius increases and electron shielding down the group
.simple covalent = weak van der waals = strength of van der waals increases down group = higher mp and bp
.down group reactivity increases

31
Q

why are halogens good oxidising agents

A

they accept electrons
.oxidising power decreases down the group due to increased shielding and atomic radius
.halogens displace any halide(halogen ions) below it

32
Q

why are halide ions good reducing agents

A

they donate electrons so becoming oxidised
.reducing power increases down the group due to electrons being easier to lose = increase shielding and atomic radius
