Chapter 7 Review Flashcards
Effective Nuclear Charge is equal to
Atomic number - Core electrons
Effective Nuclear Charge is smaller than the ________
Charge of the nucleus (Z)
In an isoelectric series, ionic charge _____ while nuclear charge _____
Decreases , increases
Chemical properties are determined by: . . .
The number of valence electrons and how strongly the valence electrons are attracted to the nucleus
Though electrons are attracted to the nucleus, the __________, also known as “shield” electrons “shield” the valence electrons from the force of the nucleus
core electrons
What is “S”?
“S” is the number of core electrons
What is “Z”?
“Z” is the atomic number of an atom
What is “Zeff”
“Zeff” is the effective nuclear charge of an atom
What is “Zeff” in terms of valence electrons?
“Zeff” is the charge “felt” by the valence electrons of an atom
Atomic radii is the . . .
Distance between the nucleus and outermost electron
The unit for Atomic radii is the . . .
Angstrom or “Å”
As the amount of valence electrons increases, the attraction of the nucleus decreases, causing the electrons to “spread out”. This means that Atomic radii . . . from left to right.
decreases
As we go step down rows, the Atomic radii . . . because the amount of electron shells is increasing
increases
The greater the Zeff, the . . .
greater the attraction of the nucleus
Because there are fewer electrons in a cation compared to the parent atom, a cation is . . . than the parent atom
smaller
Because there are more electrons in an anion compared to the parent atom, an anion is . . . than the parent atom
larger
The Zeff of cations is . . . than the Zeff of the parent atom
greater
The Zeff of anions is . . . than the Zeff of the parent atom
less
In an isometric series, Atomic radii . . . with an increasing nuclear charge
decreases
In an isoelectric series, the largest ion will have the . . . number of protons
smallest
In an isoelectric series, the smallest ion will have the . . . number of protons
largest
An isoelectric series is a series of . . .
ions with the same number of electrons
Ionization energy is . . .
the minimum energy required to REMOVE one electron from an atom or ion
Ionization energy makes . . .
cations
Second ionization energy is always . . . than first ionization energy
greater
The correct way to show the first ionization energy of an atom (X) is . . .
X –> X(+) + e(-)
There is a sharp increase in ionization energy when you . . .
remove a core electron
For transition metals, if s and p orbitals have electrons, ___ electrons are removed first, then ___ electrons, before ___ electrons
p, s, and d
The exception groups for ionization energy are groups ___ and ___
3A and 6A
The more the amount of valence electrons, the easier it is to remove one, which means that ionization energy . . . from left to right
increases
As we move from top to bottom of the table of elements, valence electrons are farther and farther away, making it easy to remove one. This means that ionization energy . . . from top to bottom.
decreases
Electron Affinity’s symbol is ___
ΔE
Electron Affinity is . . .
The CHANGE in energy to ADD one electron to form an ANION
The more negative the Electron Affinity, the . . .
more stable the anion
The more stable the anion, . . .
the greater attraction between an atom and the added electron
If the Electron Affinity is positive, . . .
the less stable the anion
The correct way to show the Electron Affinity of an atom (X) is . . .
X + e(-) –> X(-)
The most non-metallic
elements have the . . . values
most negative
