A. Mendeleev
Dmitri Mendeleev (1869, Russian)
Organized elements
by increasing
atomic mass
Elements with
similar properties
were grouped
together
There were some
discrepancies
A. Mendeleev
Deduced elements existed, but were
undiscovered elements, their properties
could be predicted
B. Moseley
Henry Moseley (1913, British)
Organized elements by increasing
atomic number
Resolved discrepancies in Mendeleev’s
arrangement
This is the way the periodic table is
arranged today!

1. Groups/Families
Vertical columns of periodic table
Each group contains elements with similar
chemical & physical properties (same amount of
valence electrons in each column)
2 numbering systems exist:
Groups # I through VIII with ea. # followed by A or B
• A groups are Main Group Elements (s&p electrons)
• B groups are Transition Elements (d electrons)
Numbered 1 to 18 from left to right
2. Periods
Horizontal rows of periodic table
Periods are numbered top to bottom from
1 to 7
Elements in same period have similarities
in energy levels, but not properties

3. Metalloids
Sometimes called semiconductors
Form the “stairstep” between metals and
nonmetals

nonmetals

2. Nonmetals
Not good conductors
Usually brittle solids or gases (1 liquid Br)
Found on right side of periodic table –
AND hydrogen
Hydrogen is it’s own group, reacts rapidly
with oxygen & other elements (has 1
valence electron)
Nonmetal Groups/Families
Boron Group: IIIA typically 3 valence
electrons, also mix of metalloids and metals
Carbon Group: IVA typically 4 valence
electrons, also has metal and metalloids
Nitrogen Group: VA typically 5 valence
electrons, also has metals & metalloids
Oxygen Group: VIA typically 6 valence
electrons, also contains metalloids
a. Halogens
Group 17 (VIIA)
Very reactive
Electron configuration
ns2np5
Form 1- ions – 1 electron short
of noble gas configuration
Typically form salts (NaCl)
Anions
Examples: F, Cl, Br, etc
b. Noble Gases
Group 18 (VIIIA)
Unreactive, inert, “noble”, stable
Electron configuration
ns2np6 full energy level
Have an octet or 8 valence e-
Have a 0 charge, no ions
Helium is stable with 1s2, a duet
Examples: He, Ne, Ar, Kr, etc

Shielding Effect
There is a Nuclear charge experienced by the outer (valence)
electron(s) in a multi-electron atom is due to the difference
between the charge on the nucleus and the charge of the
core electrons (inner electron shells).
As atoms add more protons the nuclear charge increases
Atoms are also adding more e- which are attracted to the p+
Results in the reduction of attractive force between the
positive nucleus and the outermost electrons due to
“shielding effect” of the inner electron shells(core electrons).
Periodic Trend,
1. Shielding effect increases down a group.
2. Shielding effect remains constant across a period.

Atomic Radius = ½ the distance
between two identical bonded atoms

1. Atomic Radius
Why larger going down?
Higher energy levels have larger orbitals
Shielding - core e- block the attraction
between the nucleus and the valence e-
Why smaller to the right?
Increased nuclear charge(total charge of
protons in nucleus) without additional
shielding pulls e- in tighter
2. Ionization Energy
The minimum energy required to remove an electron
from the ground state of an isolated gaseous atom or ion.
The ease with which an atom loses an e-.
First Ionization Energy (IE1) = Energy required to remove
one e- from a neutral atom.
Na(g) + IE1 (energy) → Na+(g) + e- ; +∆H (positive)
Second Ionization Energy (IE2) = energy needed to remove
a second electron, and so forth
Na+(g) + IE2 (energy) → Na2+ (g) + e- ; +∆H (positive)

2. Ionization Energy
Why does it increase up a group?
The closer the e- are to the nucleus the more
difficult it is to remove them
Decreased shielding effect increases the
positive nuclear charge
Why does it increase across a period?
Atomic radius decreases
Positive nuclear charge increases pulling ecloser to the nucleus
Electron Affinity
Most atoms can attract e- to form negatively charged ions
The energy change that occurs when an e- is added to a
gaseous atom or ion.
The ease with which an atom gains an e-.
For most atoms, the energy released when an e- is added.
(in kJ/mol)
Cl(g) + e- → Cl—(g) + EA (kJ/mol) ; -∆H (negative)
Electron Affinity
Periodic Trend
1. Electron affinity slightly increases up a group.
2. Electron affinity generally tends to increase across a
period.
Electron affinity increases up a group
decreases the atomic radius taking the electrons closer to the
nucleus’ positive attraction.
less shielding effect increases the positive nuclear charge (+) as
additional shells are added and e- are held on tighter.
Electron affinity increases across a period
atomic radius decreases
effective positive nuclear charge increases steadily and the
e- are drawn closer to the nucleus making it easier to add e-
Electron Affinity
Electron affinity increases up a group
decreases the atomic radius taking the electrons
closer to the nucleus’ positive attraction.
decreasing shielding effect increases the effective
positive nuclear charge (+) as additional shells are
added and e- are held on tighter.
Electron affinity increases across a period
atomic radius decreases
effective positive nuclear charge increases steadily
and the e- are drawn closer to the nucleus making it
easier to add e- to unfilled sublevels.
3. Electronegativity
The measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical
compound to attract electrons
Given a value between 0 and 4, 4 being the highest
Tendency for an atom to attract e- closer to itself when
forming a chemical bond with another atom.

Why increase as you move right?
More valence electrons, need less to fill
outer shell
Increased nuclear charge
Why increase as you move up?
Smaller electron cloud, more pull by +
nucleus
