chem periodic trends
test on 12/4/14
what is group one on the periodic table called | alkali metals |
what is group two on the periodic table called | alkaline earth metals |
what are groups 3-12 called | transition metals |
what is the metalloid in group 13 | boron |
is aluminum a metalloid | no |
is polonium a metalloid | no |
what are the lanthanide and actinide series called | inner transition metals |
what is group 17 called | halogens |
what is group 18 called | noble gases |
is hydrogen an alkali metal? | no |
what is the trend for reactivity for metals | increases to the left and down |
what is the trend for reactivity in nonmetals | increases up and to the right |
why do families have similar chemical reactivity | similar valence electrons within a group results in similar chemical properties |
what is periodicity or the periodic law | when elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, elements with similar properties appear at regular intervals |
what is the most reactive metal | francium |
what is the most reactive nonmetal | fluorine |
what is shielding | core energy levels block the attraction between the nucleus and the outermost energy level |
what is repulsion | electrons in the inner shells repel each other |
what is the periodic trend for atomic radius | increases down and to the left |
what is atomic radius | size of the atom, 1/2 distance between the uncle of identical atoms bonded together |
why is atomic radius larger as you go down a group | higher energy levels have larger orbitals |
why is atomic radius smaller to the right of a period | increased nuclear charge without additional shielding pulls electrons in tighter (greater effective nuclear charge) |
what is ionic radii | size of an ion in an ionic solid |
what is a cation | ion with a positive charge due to a loss of electron(s) |
what is an anion | ion with a negative charge due to the gain of electron(s) |
are cations larger or smaller than their neutral atom | smaller than neutral atom |
are anions larger or smaller than their neutral atom | larger |
do cations have an increased or decreased effective nuclear charge and why | increased, same number of protons with fewer electrons |
do anions have an increased or decreased effective nuclear charge and why | decreased, same number of protons with more electrons means lower effective nuclear charge |
what is the trend of ionic radii | increase down and to the left |
what is electronegativity | measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract electrons |
what is the trend of electronegativity | increases up and to the right |
why does electronegativity increase up | less shielding in smaller atoms |
why does electronegativity increase to the right | more protons pulling on the same energy level, no additional shielding |
what is first ionization energy | energy required to remove one electron from a neutral atom |
what is the trend of ionization energy | increases up and to the right |
why is ionization energy trend opposite of atomic radius trend | in small atoms, electrons are close to the nucleus where the attraction is stronger |
why are there small jumps (higher first ionization energies in some elements than others) within each group | stable electron configurations require more energy to remove electrons (half full sub levels, full sub levels) |
why does ionization energy increase across a period | greater effective nuclear charge (more protons pulling on the same energy level) |
why does ionization energy decrease down a group | more shielding, so the farther the electrons get from the nucleus, the less energy it takes to remove them |
who is the father of the periodic table | mendeleev |
how was mendeleevs periodic table organized | in order of increasing atomic mass |
how is moseys periodic table organized | in order of increasing atomic number |
who invented the periodic table we use today | moseley |
what is the most reactive type of metal | alkali metals |
what are most of the elements on the periodic table | metals |
what is the chemical reactivity of noble gases | no reactivity |
what is the electronegativity for helium, neon, argon | no electronegativity for the first three noble gases |
in which state are most metals and what is the other | most are solids, but one is a liquid; mercury |
who developed electronegativity | linus paulong |
which element are all electronegativity values relative to | fluorine (4.0)the most electronegative element |
how to use electronegativity scale | find difference: less than 1.7 is covalent bond, greater than 1.7 is ionic bond |
in which state is ionization energy measured | the gaseous state (kJ/mol) |
how many elements are liquids at room temperature (25*C) | 2; mercury and bromine |
