Study Notes
Periodic Table Arrangement
- Elements in the modern periodic table are arranged by increasing atomic number.
- Mendeleev first published a periodic table, organizing elements by atomic mass.
Electronegativity and Ionization
- Fluorine has the highest electronegativity among oxygen, hydrogen, fluorine, and carbon.
- First ionization energy increases across the periodic table, while it decreases down the groups.
- Second ionization energies are always higher than first ionization energies.
Element Groups and Blocks
- Halogens are located in group 17 of the periodic table.
- Alkali metals are found in group 1.
- D-block elements are collectively known as transition elements and are all metals.
- Oxygen belongs to the p block, tungsten is in the d block, plutonium is in the f block, and magnesium is categorized in the s block.
Atomic and Electron Properties
- Atomic radius is half the distance between the nuclei of identical bonded atoms.
- Valence electrons are those available for loss, gain, or sharing in chemical bonding.
- The electronegativities of f-block elements tend to be similar.
- Electron affinity refers to the energy change when a neutral atom acquires an electron.
Cations and Atomic Radius
- A cation is defined as a positively charged ion.
- Francium has the largest atomic radius among hydrogen, francium, chlorine, and bismuth.
Trends in Elements
- Atomic radii decrease across a period and increase down a group due to the increasing nuclear charge and electron cloud expansion.
- Periodic law states that the physical and chemical properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number.
Contributions of Mosley
- Mosley contributed to the modern periodic table by organizing elements according to their atomic number rather than atomic mass.
These notes encapsulate critical aspects of periodic trends and atomic properties essential for understanding the periodic table and element behavior.
