Study Notes

Significant Figures

For the addition operation 87.03 + 3.00, the result should maintain 4 significant figures based on the least precise measurement.
The result of 782.0 ÷ 2.00 is expressed with 3 significant figures.

Periodic Table Elements

Noble Gases are unreactive due to having 8 valence electrons.
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons.
Boron contains 3 valence electrons.
The group number for elements with an electron configuration of p1 is Group 13.

Atomic Behavior

Electronegativity decreases from right to left across a period.
Ionization energy varies among elements, with Sulfur (S) exhibiting the highest ionization energy among given options.
As electrons populate S and P sub-levels, atomic radii decrease due to stronger attraction to the nucleus.
The atomic radius increases down a group due to additional electron shells, while it decreases from left to right due to increased effective nuclear charge.

Chemical Properties

Alkali metals (Group 1) are highly reactive and typically stored in kerosene.
The outermost electron count for alkali metals is one.
The halogens (Group 17) are the most reactive group of non-metals.

Ions and Charge Properties

An ion is an atom or molecule that has gained or lost electrons, while a cation carries a positive charge and an anion carries a negative charge.
Effective Nuclear Charge is the net positive charge experienced by valence electrons.
Electron shielding reduces attraction between nucleus and valence electrons.

Periodic Trends

There are 18 groups in the periodic table, and 7 periods.
Ionization energy decreases down a group due to increased shielding and increases across a period as atoms aim to gain electrons for stability.
Electronegativity follows similar trends, decreasing down a group and increasing left to right.

Elemental Classification

Alkaline Earth Metals (Group 2) tend to be less reactive and typically form compounds, losing 2 electrons.
Transition Metals (Groups 3-12) conduct electricity well and are less reactive than Groups 1 and 2.
Metalloids are found between metals and non-metals, exhibiting semi-conducting properties.

Special Groups

Lanthanides are shiny metals used in electronics, corresponding to atomic numbers 57-71.
Actinides are radioactive elements with atomic numbers 90-103, where the first four are naturally occurring.
Mercury is located in Group 12 of the periodic table.

General Property Definitions

The atomic radius measures the distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms.
Ionization Energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom.
Elements arranged in the periodic table feature periodic trends with predictable changes in properties.

Group Similarities

Elements in the same group exhibit similar chemical properties; for example, Bromine (Br) and Chlorine (Cl) have alike properties due to having the same number of valence electrons.
