Study Notes
Periodic Table Organization
- Mendeleev organized elements based on their properties.
- Rows across the periodic table are called periods.
- The periodic law indicates that properties of elements relate to their atomic number.
Atomic Structure and Behavior
- A ground state carbon atom has 4 electrons in its outermost shell.
- Sulfur (S) is most similar to Chlorine (Cl) in behavior, according to periodic law.
- Main-group elements have electron configurations ending in s & p orbitals.
Periods and Groups
- There are 7 periods of elements in the periodic table.
- Noble gases added a new group to Mendeleev's periodic table.
- Alkali metals are located in Group 1, while alkaline-earth metals are in Group 2.
Atomic Characteristics
- As atomic number increases in a group, the atomic radius generally increases.
- Ionization energy increases as electrons are sequentially removed from an atom.
- Valence electrons differ from regular electrons as they participate in chemical reactions.
Electron Configuration
- An element with the configuration [Kr]4d^10/5s^2/5p^5 is in the 5th period.
- An element with the configuration [Xe]4f^14/5d^10/6s^2 is in the 6th period, Group 12, and d block.
Electronegativity and Ions
- Electronegativity measures an atom's ability to attract electrons in a compound.
- An ion is defined as an atom or group of atoms with a positive or negative charge.
Atomic Radius and Trends
- Atomic radius is half the distance between nuclei of identical bonded atoms.
- The atomic number represents the number of protons in an element.
- Elements on the right end of the p-block are less metallic than those on the left.
Groups of Elements
- Halogens are found in Group 17.
- Elements numbered 58-71 on the periodic table are known as Lanthanides.
- Elements numbered 90-103 are known as Actinides.
Trends in Atomic Characteristics
- Atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down a group.
- Noble gases (Group 18) exhibit the highest ionization energy.
- Ionization energy increases moving up a group due to proximity of valence electrons to the nucleus.
Ionization Energy Order
- The order of decreasing ionization energy among Gallium (Ga), Krypton (Kr), Calcium (Ca), and Arsenic (As) is: Kr, As, Ca, Ga.
Atomic Radius Variations
- The atomic radius increases down a group because additional energy levels are added, distancing electrons from the nucleus.
Electronegativity Trends
- Electronegativity increases as one moves from left to right across a period.
- Lithium (Li) has the highest ionization energy among alkali metals.
Specific Element Characteristics
- Argon (Ar) in Period 3 has the smallest atomic radius.
- Carbon (C) has the largest electronegativity in Group 14.
- Transition metals are located in Groups 3-12.
Valence Electrons
- Sulfur has 6 valence electrons, essential for determining its chemical reactivity.
