Study Notes
Periodic Table Summary
- Periodic Table organizes known elements based on their properties, composition, and atomic structure.
- Elements arranged in periods (rows) and groups (columns).
- Modern Periodic Law states elements' properties are periodic functions of their atomic number.
- Seven periods and eighteen groups.
- Groups I to VII are divided into subgroups A and B.
- Zero Group elements are noble/inert gases.
Atomic Size
- Atomic radius is the distance between the nucleus and outermost shell.
- Measured in angstroms (Å).
- Decreases across periods from left to right.
- Increases down groups from top to bottom
Ionization Energy
- Amount of energy to remove an electron from an isolated gaseous atom.
- Measured in electron volts (eV).
- First ionization potential is the energy to remove the first electron.
- Second ionization potential is the energy to remove the second electron.
- Increases from left to right across periods.
- Decreases down groups from top to bottom.
Electron Affinity
- Energy released when adding an electron to an isolated gaseous neutral atom.
- Increases left to right across periods.
- Decreases down groups.
Electronegativity
- Tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons.
- Increases left to right across periods.
- Decreases down groups.
Metallic Character
- Ability of an atom to lose electrons, becoming electropositive.
- Decreases left to right across periods.
- Increases down groups.
Non-metallic Character
- Ability of an atom to gain electrons, becoming electronegative.
- Increases left to right across periods.
- Decreases down groups.
Alkali Metals
- Group I elements in the periodic table.
- Soft, metallic lustre.
- Excellent conductors of heat and electricity.
- Low melting/boiling points.
- Highly reactive, not found free in nature.
- React with water to produce hydrogen and hydroxide.
Halogens
- Group VII elements in the periodic table.
- Non-metals.
- Poor conductors of heat/electricity.
- Increasing atomic size and decreasing electronegativity/electron affinity down the group.
- Increasing melting/boiling points down the group.
- Reactive elements, primarily found as compounds.
- Strong oxidizing agents.
