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
