Chapter 7
Dmitri Mendeleev arranged periodic table
according to atomic masses
chemical periodicity- predicting a property
based on an element’s position within the
periodic table
-Henry Moseley later arranged according to
increasing atomic #
-elements in the same group have similar # of
valence e- and similar chemical properties
valence orbitals- occupied orbitals which hold
the electrons involved in bonding (outermost
levels)
-in transition metals the d e- are included in the
valence electrons even though they are not in
the outermost energy level
core electrons- all other e- besides the valence e-
*Identify the valence and core e- for potassium,
titanium and germanium
K
1 valence e- and 18 core eTi
4 valence e- and 18 core eGe
4 valence e- and 28 core e-
Periodic Trends
1) Effective Nuclear Charge (Zeff)
-the net positive charge of the nucleus
experienced by an e- in a many-electron
atom
*Coulomb’s Law  the strength of the interaction
between two electrical charges depends on the
magnitude of the charges and on the distance
between them
*force inc as Zeff inc and dec as distance inc
Zeff = Z – S
Z = # of p+
S= screening constant (usually close to # of core e-)
*Zeff < actual nuclear charge
*Zeff includes the effect of the other e- in the atom
-core e- partially screen valence e- from the
attraction of the nucleus
**Zeff increases from left to right across a period
-core e- stays the same, but p+ inc
-added valence e- screen one another
ineffectively
** Zeff going down a group changes far less than
it does across a period
ex- Li = 3-2 = 1+
Na = 11-10 = 1+
-inc slightly as you move down a group b/c the
more diffuse core e- cloud is less able to screen
the valence e- from the nuclear charge
2) Atomic Radii/Size
nonbonding atomic radius/van der Waals radiustwice the radius of two nuclei
bonding atomic radius/covalent radius- half the
distance between two nuclei
page 254 figure 7.5
-increases as you move down a group
*due to inc. in n (prin. quantum #) of outer e*as you inc. n outer e- are further from nucleus
-decreases as you move across a period (left to
right
*due to the inc. in Zeff which draws valence ecloser to the nucleus, causing smaller radius
-length of the atomic radius of elements will be
given
-page 255 figure 7.6
*transition metals do not show a regular decrease
moving across
-given in angstroms
1Å = 10-10m
Problems:
1) Natural gas used in heating and cooking is
odorless. Because natural gas leaks pose the
danger of explosion or suffocation, various
smelly substances are added to detect a leak.
One example is mercaptan, CH3SH. Predict the
lengths of C—S, C—H, and S—H bonds.
C—S = 0.77 + 1.02 = 1.79 Å
C—H = 0.77 + 0.37 = 1.14 Å
S—H = 1.02 + 0.37 = 1.39 Å
2) Predict which is longer:
a) P—Br bond in PBr3
b) As—Cℓ bond in AsCℓ3
a) P—Br = 1.06 + 1.14 = 2.20 Å
b) As—Cℓ = 1.19 + 0.99 = 2.18 Å
**P—Br
3) Arrange (as much as possible) the atoms P, S,
As, and Se in order of increasing atomic size.
S P Se As
4) Arrange Na, Be, and Mg in order of inc.
atomic radius.
Be
Mg
Na
3) Ionic Radius/Size
-cations are smaller than their parent atoms
*e- lost  less e- repulsions
-anions are larger than their parent atoms
*e- gained  more e- repulsions
-for ions with the same charge, ionic radius inc.
as you move down a group
-dec. as you move across a period for ions with
same # of e- only
isoelectronic series- group of ions all containing
the same # of eex: Na+, O2-, Mg2+, F-, Aℓ3+
-all have 10 e-ionic radius dec. with inc. atomic # b/c e- are
more strongly attracted to nucleus
**Put above in order of dec. ionic radius (from
above)
O2- F- Na1+ Mg2+ Aℓ3+
Problems:
1) Arrange Mg2+, Ca2+ and Ca in order of
decreasing radius.
Ca Ca2+ Mg2+
*atoms larger than their cations, inc. as you
move down
2) Which of the following atoms and ions is
largest: S2- , S, O2-?
S2*anions larger than their atoms, inc. as you move
down
3) Arrange the ions K+, Cℓ-, Ca2+, and S2- in
order of decreasing size.
S2- Cℓ- K+ Ca2+
4) In the isoelectronic series Rb+, Sr2+, Y3+,
which ion is largest?
Rb+
4) Ionization Energy
-minimum energy needed to remove an electron
from the ground state of the gaseous atom or ion
(kJ/mol)
first ionization energy (I1)- energy needed to
remove the first e- from a neutral atom
second ionization energy (I2)- energy needed to
remove the second e-
*as each e- is removed the ion. energy increases
*greatly increases when an inner e- is removed
-due to the greater Zeff on inner e-page 259 Table 7.2
Problems:
1) Of the following elements, which has the
greatest I2?
Na Ca S
Na= 1 val eCa= 2 val eS= 6 val eNa, b/c 2nd will be a core e2) Which has the greater I3, O or Mg?
O= 6 val eMg= 2 val eMg b/c 3rd will be core e-
Trends in first ionization energy
-inc. as you move across a period
-dec. as you move down a group
-tran. metals generally inc. left to right
*alkali metals have the lowest
*noble gases have the highest
*smaller atoms have higher I1
-the energy depends on Zeff and distance of efrom nucleus
-inc. Zeff or dec. the distance from the nucleus
inc. attraction between e- and the nucleus and
makes it harder to remove e-
Problems:
1) Arrange the atoms Ne, Na, P, Ar and K in
order of increasing first ion. energy.
K Na P Ar Ne
2) Which has the lowest first ion. energy, B, Aℓ,
C, or Si?
Aℓ
E- configs of ions
*e- lost from highest occupied levels first
Ex: lithium
Li(1s22s1)
*loses from 2s and becomes (1s2)
Li  Li+ + eEx: Fe2+
Fe([Ar]3d64s2)
*loses from 4s and becomes ([Ar]3d6)
Fe  Fe1+ + 1eFe1+  Fe2+ +1e*if loses 3e- the third e- is lost from 3d
*transition metals lose e- from outermost first then d
5) Electron Affinity
-energy change that occurs when an electron is
added to a gaseous atom
-in kJ/mol
-measures the attraction of the atom for the
added e-when e- is added energy is released, so negative
values
*halogens have most negative e- affinities
-due to only needing 1e- to achieve octet
*Group 2A has + energy b/c added e- goes to p
orbital which is higher in energy and unoccupied
*Noble gases also + b/c added e- goes to next
higher s
-no definite trends to follow
