Study Notes
Periodic Table Development
- Mendeleev is recognized for arranging elements in the periodic table based on chemical and physical properties.
- He observed that element properties repeat at regular intervals when ordered by atomic mass.
- Mendeleev prioritized grouping elements by similar properties rather than strictly by atomic mass.
- He predicted that gaps in his table indicated undiscovered elements.
Modern Periodic Table
- Moseley's work led to the periodic table organization based on increasing atomic number instead of atomic mass.
- The periodic law predicts element properties based on their location within the periodic table.
- Elements in the same group or column exhibit similar chemical properties.
Element Groups and Blocks
- Radioactive elements with atomic numbers 90 to 103 are termed actinides.
- Noble gases include argon, krypton, and xenon, noted for their lack of reactivity.
- The p block comprises noble gases, such as neon to radon, and elements with a s^2p^6 configuration.
Electron Configuration
- Unfilled sublevels determine the number of elements in a period; periods with 32 elements include s, p, d, and f sublevels.
- Elements in periods where only the s and p sublevels are filled contain 8 elements.
- The electron configuration of an element (example: cesium, atomic number 55, is [Xe] 6s^1) indicates its period.
Atomic and Ionic Properties
- Atomic radius is defined as half the distance between the nuclei of bonded atoms.
- As atomic number increases in a period, atomic radius generally decreases.
- In a group, atomic radius increases with increasing atomic number due to additional occupied energy levels.
Ionization Energy and Electronegativity
- Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom.
- Calcium's common ion, due to its ionization energies, is likely Ca^2+.
- Fluorine exhibits the highest electronegativity, making it very reactive in forming compounds.
Valence Electrons
- Valence electrons are electrons that can be gained, lost, or shared when forming chemical bonds.
- Group 1 elements have 1 valence electron, while Group 17 elements have 7.
- In groups 13 to 18, valence electrons reside in s and p sublevels.
General Trends in the Periodic Table
- Across a period, atomic radii decrease while ionization energies typically increase.
- D-block elements see their first electrons removed from the s sublevel when forming ions.
- The force of attraction for valence electrons diminishes in Group 1 metals, leading to high reactivity.
Summary of Periodic Law
- The Periodic Law asserts that physical and chemical properties of elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers.
