NEW GEN CHM Flashcards
What is the force/energy holding the nucleus together?
Nuclear Binding Force
Strong Nuclear Force
Unstable nuclei are radioactive.
What are the rules for stable nuclei?
- Even # of protons and/or neutrons are stable
- N/Z ratio = 1 (for Z<20)
- Magic numbers (2, 8, 20)
When do you do:
- B-decay (B emission)
- B-decay (positron emission)
- Electron capture?
- B-decay (B-emission): N/Z is too high
- B-decay (Positron emission): N/Z is too low
- Electron capture: N/Z is too low
What element has the highest nuclear binding energy?
Fe(56) (iron-56)
- If you get a question that asks “which of the following has the highest nuclear binding energy?” look for the element that is closest to iron-56
What is the trend for ionic radius?
Going down and to the left on the periodic table
What is the trend for 1st ionization energy?
Same trend as electronegativity but He is the highest not F
What is the trend for electron affinity?
—>Cl
