Unit 4 Test Flashcards
describe groups
- columns
- tell # val. e-
- 18 of them
describe periods
- rows
- 7 of them
- Principal QNs
- relates to energy levels (tells # of them & energy for val. e-)
- length varies (related to sublevels)
what are group 1 elements called?
alkali metals
what are group 2 elements called?
alkaline earth metals
what are group 17 elements called?
halogens
what are group 18 elements called?
noble gases
what are groups 3-12 called?
Transition Elements
what affects the amount of control?
distance from nucleus
if an e- is closer to nucleus…
more control over e-
if an e- is farther from nucleus…
not as much control over e-
what is the PT?
an arrangement of the elements in order of their atomic #s so that elements w/ similar prop. fall in the same column/group
what is the periodicity of periods?
nuclear control becomes greater from left to right
why is there an increase in nuclear control L to R across a period?
more p+ in nucleus (e- remain insignificant), so more control
what is the periodicity of groups?
nuclear control = greater at the top of group
why is there greater nuclear control at the top of a group?
closer to nucleus in lower energy levels
what did Berzelius do?
developed system of chem. symbols to represent elements [using some rather interesting symbols]
what language did Berzelius use for his system of chem. symbols?
used LATIN name
what was part of Berzelius’s original system?
used 1 letter for nonmetals & 2 letters for metals
is Berzelius’s # letters naming system still in place?
no, now elements are usually named after people/places
what did Cannizzaro do?
developed method to accurately determine the atomic mass of elements
when were Berzelius & Cannizzaro doing their stuff?
1800s
what did Mendeleev do?
published 1st PT in 1869
when Mendeleev published the 1st PT, was any part of the atom discovered yet & what part?
have not found any part of atom yet
how did Mendeleev organize his PT?
put elements into table by increasing ATOMIC MASS
did Mendeleev’s PT line up & work correctly?
no
what did Moseley do?
determined each element has a unique & diff. amount of p+ in its nucleus
what did Moseley identify for elements?
identified the atomic # (# of p+) for elements
what did Moseley develop?
the modern PT
how did Moseley arrange elements?
by increasing ATOMIC # (# p+)
what does “periodic” mean?
repeating
define periodic law
the phys. & chem. prop. of the elements are period functions of their atomic #s
what is the SAME in a group?
SAME # val. e-
what is SIMILAR in a group?
SIMILAR chem. & phys. prop.
what are the 4 blocks?
s, p, d, f
what are the 4 blocks actually?
angular momentum QN (sublevels for valence e-)
on a PT, what block is on the very left?
s
on a PT, what block is in the middle?
d
in a PT, what block is on the very right?
p
in a PT, what block is on the bottom?
f
what are the s block groups?
groups 1 & 2
what are the d block groups?
3-12
what are the p block groups?
13-18
what are the f block elements?
lanthanide & actinide series
what block is He in?
s block
what are the components of val. e- configuration?
- energy level (Principal QN - period)
- sublevel (angular momentum QN - block)
- # val. e- –> group (superscript in config.)
what is the other name for val. e-?
outer electron
what is the val. e- config. for group 1?
ns¹
what is the val. e- config. for group 2?
ns²
what is the val. e- config. for group 3?
ns²(n-1)d¹
what is the val. e- config. for group 4?
ns²(n-1)d²
