Q

Quantum Model

A

The quantum mechanical model of the atom uses complex shapes of orbitals (sometimes called electron clouds), volumes of space in which there is likely to be an electron, this model is based on probability rather than certainty

27
Q

Orbitals

A

A 3d region around the nucleus that indicates the probable location of an electron

28
Q

Aufbau Principle

A

An electron occupies the lowest-energy orbital that can receive it

29
Q

Hund’s Rule

A

Every orbital in a subshell is singly occupied with one electron before any one orbital is doubly occupied, and all electrons is singly occupied have the same spin

30
Q

Pauli Exclusion Principle

A

No two electrons in the same atom can occupy the same space, no two electrons can be at the same place at the same time

31

Shows the number of valence electrons for an atom

31
Q

Valence Electrons

A

33
Q

Demtri Mendeleev

A

Designed the first periodic table of elements, arranged elements by increasing atomic mass, predicted properties of missing elements and left empty spaces for them

34
Q

John Newland

A

First person to devise a periodic table of elements arranged in order of their relative atomic weights

34
Q

Henry Moseley

A

Arranged the periodic table by atomic number, created the modern periodic table

34
Q

Modern Periodic Table Law

A

States that the physical and chemical properties of the elements are the periodic functions of their atomic numbers, scientists arranged elements in increasing order of their atomic number from left to right across each row

34
Q

35
Q

A

Brittle solids, dull, high ionization energy, high electronegativites, gains electrons easily, poor conductors, usually liquids or gasses at room temperature, low melting and boiling points, 5-8 valence electrons

35
Q

Metalloids (4 things)

A

Lustrous (shiny), brittle, fair conductors (semi-conductors), acts like non-metals when bonding

A

Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth metals, Transition metals, Metalloid, Halogens, Noble Gases, Lanthanides, Actinides

35
Q

Periodic Table Groups (definition)

A

Element in the same group have similar characteristics, elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, elements in the same group make similar bonds

35
Q

Periods of the periodic table

A

All the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals within the same energy level, elements in the same row have something in common with one another

35
Q

40
Q

Atomic Radius

A

The distance from the center of the nucleus to the outer valence shell or half the distance of a bond

41
Q

Atomic Radius (across a row)

A

Decreases due to increasing coulombic attraction, e- held more tightly (more p+ in the nucleus)

41
Q

Atomic Radius (down a group)

A

Increases due to decreasing coulombic attraction because added more energy levels

41
Q

Coulombic Attractions

A

The increasing difference between the positive charge of the nucleus and the negative charge of the electrons, this causes the electrons to be held more tightly to the nucleus

42
Q

Ionic Radius

A

Cation: decreases atomic radius Na > Na^+1, Anion: increases atomic radius Cl > Cl^-1

43
Q

Reactivity

A

Determined by how willing an atom is to form a new bond, the more reactive the more likely a new bond will form

44
Q

Metal Reactivity

A

Increases as you move to the left and down the periodic table (francium is the highest)

45
Q

46
Q

Ionization energy

A

The amount of energy needed to remove an outermost e-

46
Q

Ionization energy (across a row)

A

Increases due to increasing number of p+, increasing coulombic attraction, greater pull on e-, harder to remove =, requires more energy

47
Q

Ionization energy (down a group)

A

Decreases due to decreasing coulombic attraction because increasing number for energy levels, e- is farther from the nucleus, easier to remove, requires less energy, increased shielding by inner e- will also decrease the energy required
