Period 3, Group 2, and Halogens Flashcards
list period 3 elements in order
Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar
atomic radius ____ down period 3
decreases
Across the period from Na to Si, the ions get ______
smaller
Nuclear charge _____ across period 3
increases
Electrical conductivity _____ from Na + to Al 3+, then ____ to silicon
increases decreases
Conductivity and melting point ______from sodium to aluminum because the sea of delocalized electrons increase the charge of the metallic lattice
increases
what element has the strongest metallic bond in period 3
aluminum
________ is a metalloid
silicon
Elements to the _____ of silicon are non-metallic, have weak id-id forces which make them easier to break
right
in period 3, ionization energy ______ across the period
increases
in period 3, electronegativity ______ across the period
increases
elements in period 3 get more acidic or basic across the period?
acidic
does argon react with oxygen?
no
oxidation number increases or decreases across period 3
increases
does aluminum oxide dissolve or react with water
no
__________ is insoluble in water because water can’t break down the molecular structure, but can react in hot conc. alkali
silicone dioxide
Covalently bonded non-metal oxides of P and S react with water to form what?
an acid
Oxides of Na and Mg (ionic) react with water and produce ________ solutions
alkaline
Insoluble oxides react with hot conc. NaOH to form what?
a soluble salt
