what is the covalent radius
going across a period, covalent radius _______
decreases
going ______ __ _______, covalent radius decreases
period
going down a group, covalent radius ________
increases
going _____ __ ______, covalent radius increases
down a group

going across a period, the nuclear charge ______
increases
going across a period, the number of filled electron shells _____ ___ _____
stays the same
going _____ ___ ______, the number of filled electron shells stays the same
across a period
what does an increase in nuclear charge mean
electrons being more strongly attracted to the nucleus
–> covalent radius decreases
as you go down a group, an extra ___ __ _____ is added
shell of electrons
as you go _____ ___ ______, an extra shell of electrons is added
down a group
why does covalent radius increase as you go down a group
an extra shell of electrons is added
what does an extra shell of electrons is added as you go down a group mean for covalent radius
the covalent radius increases
shielding effect
Each extra layer of electrons shields outer electrons from the positive nucleus so that the outer electrons are less strongly attracted to the nucleus
Each extra layer of electrons shields outer electrons from the positive nucleus so that the outer electrons are less strongly attracted to the nucleus
shielding effect
going down a group, the electronegativity __________
decreases
going ______ ____ __ ___, the electronegativity decreases
down a group
going across a period, the electronegativity _______
increases
going _____ __ _______, the electronegativity increases
across a period
what 2 factors influence electronegativity and covalent radius
nuclear charge
number of filled electron shells
what does an increase in nuclear charge cause
the atom attracts bonded electrons more strongly
the atom attracts bonded electrons more strongly
increase in nuclear charge
what happens when the number of filled electron shells increases
outer electrons are further from the nucleus
AND
less strongly attracted to the nucleus
outer electrons are further from the nucleus
AND
less strongly attracted to the nucleus

covalent bond
atoms share pairs of electrons
two positive nuclei held together by their shared attraction for shared pair of electrons

two positive nuclei held together by their shared attraction for shared pair of electrons
covalent bond
polar covalent bonds
formed when the attraction of atoms for the pair of bonding electrons is different
formed when the attraction of atoms for the pair of bonding electrons is different
polar covalent bonds
ionic bonds
