Electronegativity: define and periodic trend
how well an element can attract electrons
increase as you move left to right and up the periodic table (F is most electronegative atom)
–> noble gases are NOT electronegative
Ionization Energy (IE): define and periodic trend
Energy required to remove an electron
increases as you move left to right and up the periodic table
–> if equal distance from F, you cannot tell
Electron Affinity: define and periodic trend
amount of energy released when electron attaches to neural atom or molecule
increases as you move left to right and up the periodic table
Atomic Radius: define and periodic trend
one half the distance between the nuclei
increases right to left and as you go DOWN the periodic table (Fr highest atomic radius)
non mental character increases as you…
go left to right and up the periodic table
Metallic character increases as you…
go right to left and down the periodic table
isoelectronic
same number of electrons=same electron configuration
Pauli Exclusion principle
no two electrons in an atom can have the same 4 quantum numbers
Aufbau Principle
order in which an atom will fill up its orbitals
Principle #
(n) tells you the orbital
Angular momentum
(l) tells you shape of orbital
m sub l
tells you how many orbitals of each type
m sub s
tells you the spin # (either +1/2 or -1/2)
