🔥Chemistry 1.6 -the Peridoic Table Flashcards
How does Ionisation energy increase in the periodic table?
Upward diagonally, fluorine is the element with the highest I.E
How does Electronegativity increase in the periodic table?
It increases diagonally up the periodic table, fluorine is the most electronegative element
Where in the periodic table is the s block
Group 1 and 2
Where In the periodic table is the d block
Transition metals
Where in the periodic table is the p block?
3,4,5,6,7, 8 (inert gas)
Where are cations and ionic compounds formed?
Why?
Formed in the S Block because electrons in this block are readily lost
Why is covalencey usually found in the P block
Because group 3’s ionisation energy becomes too high allowing electron sharing to occur
Where are anions in ionic compounds found in the periodic table?
Why?
In group 6&7 because the more electronegative elements can accept electrons readily to form the anions
Name the trend in valency in the periodic table
Valency normally rises with the groups to a maximum of 4 and then decreases (8-group number) to one in group 7
If an element had a low I.E what is it likely to be?
A metal in the lower left region of the table
If an element has a high I.E what is it likely to be?
Non metal in the upper right of the table
What are the elements found between those with High and low I.E called?
Give an example
Portion and semiconductor elements such as Silicon
What is the oxidisation number of a group 1 and group 2 metal?
Group 1= +1
Group 2= +2
What ions are found in the s block
Cations
In a redox reaction are the s block elements oxidising or reducing agents
Reducing
Name the melting temperature in group 1
Decreased down the group
Describe the oxides in the s block
Basic
Describe the melting temperature trend until the end of group 4
Increase across a period up until group 4 (carbon melts above 3500 etc)
Name the ions in the p block (excluding group 8)
Anions
Name the oxidisation number of group 6 and 7
Group 6 = -2
Group 7= -1
In a redox reaction are group 6 and 7 reducing or oxidising agents?
Oxidising
Describe the oxides in group 6/7
Acidic
Describe the melting point in group 6 and 7
The melting point increases down the groups
What type of element is in group 6/7
Non metal
What kind of element is in the s block?
Metal
What determines the trend in salt solubility
Name 2 examples
The strength of the lattice in an ionic crystal, stronger the lattice the more insoluble the compound
1) In MgSO4 the Mg ion is much smaller than the SO4 ion so the ions can’t fit well together to form the strong lattice and MgSO4 is soluble
2) In BaSO4 the Ba ion is much bigger than Mg, the ions fit together well in the lattice and BaSO4 is insoluble in water
Name the solubility is group 1
All salts are soluble
Name the solubility of carbonates
For when X= group 1 or group 2
All insoluble
Name the solubility of sulfates (XSO4)
For when X= group 1 or group 2
Solubility decreases down the group, BaSO4 = insoluble
