Term | Definition |
Atomic radius (covalent radius) | Half the distance between the nuclei of two atoms of the same element that are joined together by a single covalent bond |
Why do values of atomic radius increase down any one group in the Periodic table? | - A new shell further from the nucleus - The screening effect of inner electrons. |
Why do values of atomic radius decrease from left to right across any period of the Periodic Table? | - Increasing nuclear charge - No increase in the screening effect |
The first ionisation energy is.. | Is the minimum energy required to completely remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom in its ground state |
Why do the the values of ionisation energy decrease down the groups in the periodic table? | - Increasing atomic radius - The screening effect of inner electrons. |
Why do the values of ionisation energy increase across the periods in the Periodic Table? | - Increasing nuclear charge - Decreasing atomic radius |
Why do the values of electronegativity decrease down the groups in the Periodic Table/ | - Increasing atomic radius - Screening effect of inner electrons |
Why do the Electronegativity values increase across the periods in the Periodic Table? | - Increasing nuclear charge - Decreasing atomic radius |
What is the meaning of the term "Bond Length"? | The distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms measured by x-ray diffraction |
What is 2nd Ionisation energy? | its the energy required to remove an electron from an ion with one positive charge in the gaseous state. |
What does the term "n=3" refer to? | third energy level or orbital. |
The chemical properties of an element are largely determined by the ..? | Number of electrons in the outermost energy level. |
All the Alkali metals react with Oxygen to produce.. | Metal Oxides. |
Why is it important not to put Alkali metals into dilute acid? | An explosion occurs due to so much Hydrogen being produced. |
An Alkali Metal + Water reacts to give ...( Na + H2O) | A Metal Hydroxide and Hydrogen |
What group number are the Halogens? | VII |
Do Halogens exist free in nature? | No |
What is the trend in reactivity of the Halogens? | Increases as you go up the group |
More reactive Halogens will .............. the less reactive Halogens from a solution of their ions | Displace |
What accounts for the increasing Boiling Points of the Halogens as you go down the group? | Increasing Van Der Waals Forces due to increasing sizes of molecules. |
Why do some elements have first ionisation energies that are much greater than expected. (Don't conform to the general trends) | Atoms with filled and half-filled outer sub-levels have an increased stability leading to a greater 1st ionisation energy requirement |
