Study Notes

HOFBrINCl

  • Represents the diatomic gases in the periodic table: Hydrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Bromine, Iodine, Nitrogen, Chlorine.

Diatomic Molecules

  • Consist of two atoms that aim to fill their valence shells by pairing electrons, often leading to increased stability.
  • As you move from top to bottom, atom size increases due to the addition of electron shells.
  • As you move from right to left, atom size also increases due to reduced positive charge from the nucleus on outer electrons.
  • Reactivity increases as you move away from the "staircase" in the periodic table.
  • Among two metals that are close in the periodic table, the less electronegative one is more reactive.

Charges in the Periodic Table

  • Charges range: +1, +/-1, +2, +3, +/-4, -3, -2, -1, 0.
  • The charge of an atom is determined by the number of electrons in its outer shell.

Group 2 Elements

  • Elements in the second column have a charge of +2 because they typically lose two electrons to achieve stability.

Triangle of Death

  • Comprises Silver, Cadmium, and Zinc, which are notable for their specific charge properties (+1 for Silver, +2 for Cadmium and Zinc).
