What determines the behavior of an element based on the distribution of electrons into its energy levels and sublevels?
Electron Configuration
What causes energy levels to split into sublevels of different energy in atoms with more than one electron?
Shielding and Penetration
What method results in vertical groups of elements having identical outer electron configurations and similar behavior in the periodic table?
Aufbau Principle
Which recurring trends in the periodic table are exhibited by atomic size, ionization energy, and electron affinity?
Chemical Periodicity
Test your knowledge of the key principles related to arranging elements by atomic number, periodic recurrence of properties, and electron configuration of atoms. Learn about the periodic law and how the distribution of electrons determines the behavior of elements.
