48
Mass Number
the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom.
49
Neutrons
It exists in the nucleus of the atom alongside protons and makes up an atom's atomic mass with protons. While a proton is positively charged and an electron is negatively charged, a neutron is neutral; it doesn't have a charge.
50
Isotopes

56
Atomic Structure
The number of protons determines what element it is.
Mass of a proton is 1
Mass of neutron is 1
When adding neutrons you are not changing the atomic but changing the mass number
Mass # - Atomic # = # of Neutrons
# of Neutrons + Atomic # = Mass #
57
Uncertainties
+/- 0.5 of the smallest division
When adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing uncertainties make sure you always always add the uncertainties and then do the operation to the other two quantities
58
Systematic Errors
Systematic errors are due to identified causes and can, in principle, be eliminated. Errors of this type result in measured values that are consistently too high or consistently too low. Systematic errors may be of four kinds:
1. Instrumental. For example, a poorly calibrated instrument such as a thermometer that reads 102 oC when immersed in boiling water and 2 oC when immersed in ice water at atmospheric pressure. Such a thermometer would result in measured values that are consistently too high.
2. Observational. For example, parallax in reading a meter scale.
3. Environmental. For example, an electrical power ‘brown out’ that causes measured currents to be consistently too low.
4. Theoretical. Due to simplification of the model system or approximations in the equations describing it. For example, if your theory says that the temperature of the surrounding will not affect the readings taken when it actually does, then this factor will introduce a source of error.
59
Random Errors
Random errors are positive and negative fluctuations that cause about one-half of the measurements to be too high and one-half to be too low. Sources of random errors cannot always be identified. Possible sources of random errors are as follows:
1. Observational. For example, errors in judgment of an observer when reading the scale of a measuring device to the smallest division. = UNCERTAINTY
2. Environmental. For example, unpredictable fluctuations in line voltage, temperature, or mechanical vibrations of equipment.
60
Average atomic mass
Relative atomic mass (means the same thing) = [(% abundance of isotope 1x mass of isotope 1)/100] +
[ (% abundance of isotope 2 x mass of isotope 2)/100] + ……
61
When talking about trends we always go _____ a Period and _____ a group
Across, down
62
TREND 1 - Atomic Radius
Atomic Radius: From
Nucleus → Valence Shell
As you go across a period, the atomic radius will decrease because nuclear charge is increasing so the shells are pulled close together & the same shells are constant throughout the period
As you go down a group, the atomic radius will increase because the number of shells increases.
63
TREND 2 - Ionic Radius
Ionic Radius:
From center of nucleus → Valence shell of Ion
As you go across a period, the ionic radius decreases because there is more pull from the protons until column 14 where there is a jump because of another shell, then decreases again.
As you go down a group, the ionic radius increases because the number of shells increases
64
TREND 3 - Ionization Energy (IE)
Ionization Energy: Energy required to remove an electron from a valence shell of an atom.
As you go across a period, IE increases because the force of attraction increases because radius gets smaller & number of proton increases
As you go down a group, IE decreases because the force of attraction decrease because radius increases (more shells)
Second Ionization Energy
Xᐩ(g) → X2ᐩ(g) + e-
Energy is needed to remove a second electron from each ion in 1 mole of gaseous 1+ ions. Results in gaseous 2+ ions
65
TREND 4 - Electron Affinity (EA)
Electron Affinity: Energy required to add an e-
As you go across a period, EA increases because force of attraction increases because number of protons is increase and radius is decreasing
As you go down a group, EA goes down because force of attraction decreases because radius increases
66
TREND 4A - Electronegativity
Electronegativity: Relative attraction for an e- in a bond
As you go across a period, EA increases because force of attraction increases because number of protons is increase and radius is decreasing
As you go down a group, EA goes down because force of attraction decreases because radius increases
67
TREND 5 - Reactivity
Metals react by losing electrons to form positive ions
As atomic radius increases first IE will decreases and reactivity will decrease
Non metals react by gaining electrons to form positive ions
As atomic radius increases EN will decrease and reactivity will increase

5
76

They are in the same group because they both have 3 valence electrons.
77
Is a sodium atom larger or smaller than a magnesium atom?
A sodium atom is larger than a magnesium atom. The magnesium atom has an increased nuclear charge and the increased charge attracts the outermost electrons more, causing the atom to become smaller.
78
Is a sodium atom larger or smaller than a sodium ion?
A sodium atom is larger than a sodium ion because the atom has 3 shells containing electrons and a sodium ion has 2 shells containing electrons.

- 3
80
Would you expect a neon atom to be larger or smaller than a sodium atom?
A neon atom is smaller than a sodium atom because it has one less shell.
81
Would you expect a neon atom to be larger or smaller than a sodium ion?
The neon atom would be larger than a sodium ion because they both have the same electron configuration but sodium has an increased nuclear charge (11 protons vs 10 for neon), pulling in the electrons making it smaller.
82
Explain why beryllium has a higher ionization energy than lithium.
Be has a higher ionization energy because the atom is smaller due to an increased nuclear charge making it more difficult to remove an electron.
83
What is the most metallic element in the periodic table?
The most metallic element is Fr since it will most readily lose an electron.

O2-, F-, Ne, Na+, Mg2+
The magnesium ion would have the smallest atomic radius since it has the greatest nuclear charge (greatest ability to pull outer electrons towards the nucleus resulting in a smaller ion) and all electron configurations are the same of the other elements/ions in the list.
