A

Trends for ionization energies

60
Q

As a general rule electrons add with greater… Down a grouo

A

Difficulty

61
Q

This pattern(greater difficulty in adding electrons down group) is a result of two

A

Compete ring factors

62
Q

The first competing factor is a slight increase in

A

Effective nuclear charge down a group, which increases electron affinities

63
Q

There is a rough correlation between the arrangement of

A

Elements and their electron configurations

64
Q

The second competing factor is an increase in atomic

A

radius down a group which decreases electron affinities

65
Q

A

Predominates (exceptions. Esp among heavy transition metals which tend to be the same size or even decrease in radius down a group)

66
Q

72
Q

Cation

A

Positive ion

73
Q

Anion

A

74
Q

Formation of a cation by the loss of one or more electrons always leads to a decrease in

A

Atomic radius because removal of highest energy level electrons results in smaller electron cloud

75
Q

Remaining electrons are drawn

A

Closer to the nucleus by its unbalanced positive charge

76
Q

Formation of an anion by the addition of one or more electrons always leads to

A

An increase in atomic radius because total positive charge of the nucleus remains unchanged when an electron is added to an atom or an ion

77
Q

Electrons are not drawn to the nucleus as strongly as they were before

A

The addition of the extra electron

78
Q

Electron cloud also spreads out because of greater

A

81
Q

Carbonic radii decrease across a

A

Period

82
Q

Carbonic radii decrease across period because the electron cloud

A

Shrinks due to increasing nuclear charge acting on the electrons in the same main energy level

83
Q

Starting with group 15 anions are more common than

A

Cations

84
Q

An ionic radii decrease

A

A

Left to right across a period

86
Q

A

Higher energy levels as one reads down a group

87
Q

Just as there is a gradual increase of atomic radii down a group there is also a gradual

A

Increase of ionic radii

88

89
Q

A

Nearby atoms or ions

90
Q

Valence electrons: the electrons available to be

A

Lost, gained, or shared in the formation of chemical compounds

91
Q

Valence electrons are often located in

A

Incompletely filled main energy levels

92
Q

The inner electrons are in filled energy levels and are held too tightly by the nucleus to be involved in

A

Compound formation

93
Q

The group 1 and group 2 elements have

A

One and 2 valence electrons

94
Q

Elements of groups 13-18 have a number of valence electrons equal to the

95
Q

In some cases, both the s and p sublevel valence electrons of the o block elements are involved in

A

Compound formation

96
Q

Valence electrons hold atoms together in

Numerical values reflecting the tendency of an atom to attract electrons

101
Q

A

102
Q

A

108
Q

Electronegativities tend to either decrease

A

Down a group or remain about the same

109
Q

Noble gases are unusual in that some do not form

A

110
Q

When s noble gas does form s compound its electronegativities is rather

A

High

111

A

D sublevel of the next lower energy level

115

116
Q

Electrons in the incompletely filled d sublevels are responsible for many

A

Characteristic properties of the d block elements

117
Q

The atomic radii of the d block elements generally

A

Decrease across the periods

118
Q

Decrease in atomic radii of the d block elements is

A

Less than that for the main group elements

119
Q

Decrease in atomic radii of d block elements is less than that for main group elements because the electrons added to the

A

(n-1)d sublevel shield the outer electrons from the nucleus

120
Q

The radii dip to a low and then increase slightly across each of the

A

Four period that contain d block elements

121

A

Increase across the periods

125
Q

The first ionization energies of the d block elements generally

A

Increase down each group

126
Q

The reason IE 1 of d block elements increases down each group is because the electrons available for ionization in the outer s sublevels are

A

Less shielded from the increasing nuclear charge by the electrons in the incomplete (n-1)d sublevels

127
Q

Amin all atoms of the d block and f block elements electrons in the highest occupied sublevel are always

A
