Trends in the periodic table
•
Understand general trends in the
periodic table between
–
–
–
–
atomic radii (and ionic radii)
ionization energy
electron affinity
electronegativity.
Atomic radius
• The “bonding atomic radius” – ½ distance
between two identical atoms
• Coulombic law of attraction

Properties affecting atomic radius
1. orbital size:
–
What will happen to the radius as number of orbital
shells increases?

r
effective nuclear charge
• Shielding effect of core electrons (S)
• Nuclear effective charge, Zeff
• Zeff = Z – S
– What is Z? What is S?
• What happens to Zeff as we go from left to right
along the table?
• How does this affect the radius?

Isoelectronic series
• series of atoms and ions containing the same
number of electrons.
• Size is directly proportional to charge
Ionization energy: the energy required
to remove one electron from an atom
• what do you think will happen with the ionization
energy, based on what you have learned about
atomic radius?

r
• Both the atomic radius and
the type of orbital affect IE
removing more than one electron
• removing valence electrons vs. removing core
electrons

Electron affinity
• the energy
change that
occurs
when an
electron is
added to
an atom
(forming an
anion)
http://www.webelements.com/webelements/properties/text/image-intensity/electron-affinity.html
Electronegativity
• Electronegativity:
• How does this differ from electron affinity?
• General trend:
Alkali metals (column 1A)
•
•
•
•
Always form +1 ions
electron configuration:
very reactive in water
M + H2O  MOH (M = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs)
Alkaline earth metals (2A)
• Always forms +2 ions
• electron configuration:
• Be, Mg not reactive in liquid water
Nonmetal groups
• Chalcogens (6A)
• usually form –2 ions
• electron configuration:
• Halogens (7A)
• usually form –1 ions
• electron configuration:
•
•
•
•
Noble gases (8A)
do not form ions
electronic configuration
usually unreactive, but heavier atoms (Kr, Xe, Rn) do form
compounds.
Hydrogen and the hydrides
• The text has grouped various reactions
according to those with hydrogen and
oxygen. Many of the trends we have
examined are also discussed there.
Metal hydrides
• In general:
xM(l) + H2(g) → xMH (s)
• Where M is a IA or IIA metal.
• What is x if M is
– IA?
– IIA?
Hydrides and hydroxides
• Metal hydrides react with water to form
metal hydroxides. Because of this, they
are __________. The general form is
MHx (s) + xH2O (l) → M(OH)x (s) + xH2 (g)
• Again, what is x for
– alkali metals?
– alkaline earths?
Molecular hydrides
• Halogens react with hydrogen….
H2 (g) + X2 (g)→ 2HX (g)
• These are molecular compounds. But
what happens to HCl when dissolved in
water?
• Hydrogen halides are ________.
Metals and oxygen
• Oxygen has three kinds of ions:
• Oxide:
• Peroxide:
• Superoxide:
Metal oxides in water
• Basic anhydrides:
• A basic anhydride is similar to a metal
hydroxide base, but without _______.
• Soluble metal oxides react with water to
form _____ __________ __________.
Molecular oxides
• Nonmetal reacting with water form
molecular oxides.
• These reactions are more complex; we will
discuss them later in the semester.
• However, just like molecular hydrides,
molecular oxides tend to be ___________.
combustion
• There are examples of complete
combustion and incomplete combustion of
hydrocarbons in your text. You should be
familiar with these. (p 258)
• Complete combustion of a hydrocarbon
(contains only C, H, O) will always form
