⭐️Periodic Table Flashcards
Mendelev
Correctly predicted the properties and masses of unknown elements–element properties were periodic functions of it MASS (wrong bc isotopes)
Mosely
Properties of element are a periodic function of it ATOMIC NUMBER (right)
Horizontal on periodic table
Periods/rows
Vertical on periodic table
Groups/columns/families
Families in a periodic table
More similar chemical properties than periods, same # of valance electrons
Higher atomic radius effects
More QUANTUM LEVELS, weaker nuclear pull, down a group, shielding effect, IE decreases, ionization decreases, affinity decreases
Covalent atomic radius
1/2 inter-nuclear distance between 2 adjacent atoms in a SOLID phase, in Angstroms
How many angstroms are in a meter
10^-10
Within a PERIOD, what happens to the size of the radius with increasing atomic number?
Decreases (going across), up atomic number, more protons, more electrons in the same energy level, higher nuclear charge, stronger nuclear pull EXCEPT NOBLE GASES ARE SLIGHTLY LARGER (as compared to elements near it)
Within a FAMILY, what happens to the size of the radius with increasing atomic number?
Increases (going down), each row has increasing energy levels, weaker nuclear pull (shielding effect)
Non-metals gain electrons, (-) ions (anion)
It’s radius will be LARGER, therefore WEAKER nuclear pull (more electrons out there, less pull bc can’t pull so many)
Ionic radii, bigger in nonmetals or metals?
Size of an ion’s radius, bigger in nonmetals (gain)
Metals lose electrons, (+) ions (cation)
It’s radius as an ion will be SMALLER, therefore STRONGER nuclear pull (since there’s less electrons to pull the pull is stronger)
Within a period, as atomic number increases, density…
Increases, then decreases
Period
Same quantum/energy level, decreasing radius, increasing nuclear pull/ionization/affinity
Within a family, going down, density…
Generally increases
Within a family, what happens to melting point?
Increases, then decreases in groups 1 and 2
Increases for other groups
Ionization energy (IE)
Amount of ENERGY needed to REMOVE the most loosely bound electron, forming a cation
Within a group, going down, what happens to IE/Affinity?
Decreases (less energy needed to lose furthest electron) MORE SHIELDING EFFECT, LOWER NUCLEAR PULL
Within a period, going across, what happens to IE/Affinity?
Increases (greater energy needed to remove furthest electron) MORE VALANCE ELECTRONS, STRONGER NUCLEAR PULL
How can u tell if an element has no affinity
If the first ionization energy makes a big jump and the valence is full or sublevel p, d, or f is 1/2 full (s2 p3 p6 d5 d10 f7 f14)
Electron affinity
Attraction an atom has for electrons (when non-bonded) [thats also why nonmetals gain, more nuclear pull, easier to gain than lose]
As radius decreases what happens to ionization/affinity
Inverse, increases
How can u tell which group the element is in based on IE?
Big jump, new quantum level, previous quantum level=valence, valence=group…for example
X+1>X+2=1810 KJ
X+2>X+3=2750 KJ
X+3>X+4=11000 KJ…big jump, 3 valence, group 13
Metals (where on p table, properties, lose or gain electrons/where, how many valence)
2/3 of periodic table, left of red line (not H), luster malleability high melting point good conductors low IE, low affinity, lose electons (easily loses down bc shielding and left bc weaker nuclear pull) 1 2 3 valence
What is the most active metal/most metallic
Francium, 1 valance in 7th level (only needs to lose 1)
Within a period, metallic properties…
Decreases (higher nuclear charge)
