Study Notes

Active Metals and Nonmetals

  • Most active metals are located in the lower left section of the periodic table.
  • Most active nonmetals are found in the upper right section.
  • Atomic size decreases from left to right across a period due to increased nuclear charge.
  • Atomic size increases as you move down a group, influenced by increasing energy levels.

Ion Size Differences

  • A negative ion (anion) is larger than its parent atom.
  • A positive ion (cation) is smaller than its parent atom.
  • First ionization energy increases from left to right across a period as positive charge of the nucleus increases.
  • First ionization energy decreases as you go down a group.

Electronegativity

  • The highest electronegativity is found in the upper right of the periodic table.
  • The lowest electronegativity is located in the lower left.

Groups and Categories of Elements

  • Group 1 elements are known as Alkali metals.
  • Group 2 elements are referred to as Alkaline metals.
  • Groups 3-12 are called Transition metals.
  • Group 17 elements are classified as Halogens.
  • Group 18 elements are termed Noble gases.

Element Properties Across the Periodic Table

  • As you move from left to right, elements transition from metals to nonmetals.
  • Elements in a group share a similar number of valence electrons, influencing their chemical behavior.
  • Elements across a series maintain the same number of principal energy levels.

Transition Elements Characteristics

  • Transition elements fill the d and f sub-levels during their electron configuration.

Element Composition

  • A colored ion usually indicates the group classification of the element.
  • With descending groups, elements tend to become more metallic in character.
  • The majority of elements in the periodic table are classified as metals.

Element Arrangement and Properties

  • The elements in the periodic table are organized by increasing atomic number.
  • A metalloid possesses properties of both metals and nonmetals, highlighting versatility in behavior.
