Study Notes
Classification of Elements and Periodic Properties
- Pauling's electronegativity values help predict molecular polarity, EMF series position, coordination numbers, and dipole moments.
- Electronic configurations are used to determine which elements are not in the same family.
- Metallic character decreases across a period and increases down a group in the periodic table.
- Anion formation is most easily seen in the halogen group.
- Elements in the oxygen family have a strong tendency to form anions.
- Protons have a large charge, ionization potential, and hydration energy, but small radius.
- Isoelectronic species (Na+, Mg2+, Al3+, Si4+) have decreasing ionic size as the positive charge increases.
- Element 33 is in group 15.
- Atomic volume decreases across a period from left to right.
- High difference in ionization energies is seen in elements with a specific electronic configurations.
- Nonmetals are typically electronegative reducing agents, forming basic oxides.
- Element with electronic configuration 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³ has atomic number 15.
- Element with atomic number 118 will be a noble gas.
- Smallest ion size is Mg²+.
- Ionic radii are inversely proportional to effective nuclear charge.
- Paramagnetic behaviour is seen in oxides with an odd number of electrons.
- A cation has a smaller ionic radius than its neutral atom. An anion has a larger ionic radius than its neutral atom.
- The first ionization potential of beryllium is greater than that of boron.
- Elements with atomic configurations that include a half-filled or filled electronic sublevel/shell have higher ionization energies.
- The order of first ionization potentials for Be, B, C, N, and O is Be < B < C < N < O.
- The correct order of acidic strength for hydrides of Group 15 elements is NH₃ < PH₃ < AsH₃.
- Silicon has a coordination number of 4 in its compounds.
- Fluorine has a lower bond energy than chlorine.
- Mn(III) is more stable than Mn(II) in aqueous solution.
- Elements in group 15 exhibit oxidation states of +3 and +5.
- Ferrous ions (Fe²⁺) have a higher degree of unpairing than nickel(II) ions (Ni²⁺).
