Unit 4 Flashcards
The number of protons. The further down the chart goes the larger the number of protons.
Nuclear Charge
Valence electrons are weakly attracted to the nucleus because their attraction to the nucleus is shielded by the other electrons in the atom. This effect only happens in BIG atoms.
Shielding Effect
adding protons and electrons will increase force but distance doesn’t change unless another ring/energy level is added. With more force the atom will get smaller because there are more electrons. (shielding effect) When you add an energy level the distance increases decreasing the size of the atom.
Atomic Size
When an atom gains or loses an electron is becomes known as an _____.
ion
Metallic elements (Metals) generally lose electrons making them positively charged______.
Cations
Non-metallic elements (Non-metals) generally gain electrons to become negatively charged______.
Anions
Draw an anion and a cation
Cl- Na+
Positive ions (cations) have______ radii than their corresponding atoms.
smaller
Negative ions (anions) have _____ radii than their corresponding atoms.
larger
Energy required to overcome the attraction of the nuclear charge and remove an electron from an atom. Removing 1 electron from an atom results in a 1+ charge.
Ionization Energy
Its tendency for the atoms of the element to attract electrons. The electronegativity of Cesium and Francium is smallest at 0.7 and Florine is greatest at 4.0 (It increases up and to the right as it gets closer to Florine)
