Periodic Properties of the Elements
First Periodic Law Of The Elements
Proposed by Mendeleev
Based on Atomic Weights
Mendeleev’s Law-  The properties of the elements are a periodic function of their increasing atomic weights
Periodic Relationships Between Two Variables
Sin and cos of an angle vs angle size
Moon Phases (time vs moon’s position in space relative to the Earth)
Metabolic Rate changes in plants (time vs flowering)
Modern Periodic Law Of The Elements
Proposed by Moseley
Based on atomic numbers
Moseley’s Law- The properties of the elements are a periodic function of their increasing atomic numbers.
T-8.12 Modern Periodic Table
Periods and Groups In The Periodic Table
Period-Row of Elements
Seven periods
Represents a complete cycle for the value of a property to repeat itself
Groups-Vertical Rows including elements that are very similar in properties
18 groups
Group Names
Group 1 = Alkali Metals
Group 2 = Alkali Earth Metals
Group 3-12 = Transition State Metals
Group 17 = Halogens
Group 18 = Noble Gases
Octet Rule
The most stable atom will be one that has a completely filled outer valence region(complete octet with the exception of Hydrogen
Group 1=lose 1 electron = +1 ion
Group 2 = lose 2 electrons = +2 ion
Group 13 = lose 3 electrons = +3 ion
Group 14 = lose 4 electrons = +4 ion
Group 15= gain 3 electrons = -3 ion
Octet Rule (cont)
Group 16 = gain 2 electrons = -2 ion
Group 17 = gain 1 electron = -1 ion
Group 18 = gain 0 electrons = no charge
Atomic Radius
Atomic Radius- The distance from the center of an atom and its outermost occupied region
T-8.16 Atomic Radius vs atomic number
Periodic Trend For Atomic Radius
Within the Periodic Table the Atomic Radius decreases as we proceed to the right in a period and up within a group
Hydrogen is smallest and Francium is the largest atom
T-8.17 Atomic Radii Of Representative Elements
Metallic Strength and Atomic Radius
Metals tend to have the largest radii
Non-metals tend to have the smallest radii
Ionization Energy
First Ionization Energy-Energy required to remove the first electron from an atom
Second Ionization Energy- Energy required to remove a second electron from an atom.
Be   +   IE1 --àBe +    1s2,2s1  +
Be +    +   IE2  --à  Be+2   1s2  +2
Be +2   +   IE3 -à Be +3  1s1  +3 (complete valence region disturbed)
IE3 >>>>>>>IE2>IE1
T-76 Some Selected Ionization Energies
Periodic Trends and Ionization Energy
Within the Periodic Table Ionization Energy increases as we proceed to the right in a period and up in a group
T-8.18 Ionization Energy vs Atomic Number
Relationship Between Metallic Strength and Ionization Energy
Metals tend to have low Ionization Energies
Non-metals tend to have high Ionization Energies
Electron Affinitity
Electron affinity-Energy released when an atom gains an electron
Electron Affinity increases as we proceed to the right in a period and up in a group
Metals tend to have low electron affinities
Non-metals tend to have high electron affinities
T-59 Electron Affinity Values
Metals
Metals-elements whose atoms lose one or more electrons to become positively charged cations
Na ---à   Na +   +   e –
Ca----à  Ca +2    +    2 e –
Al ----à Al +3   +   3 e –
Non-Metals
Non-metals-Elements whose atoms tend to gain one or more electrons becoming negatively charged anions
F   +   e - -à  Cl –
O  +  2e -  -à O –2
N   +  3 e -   -à N –3
Metalloids
Metalloid- Element whose atoms may gain or lose one or more electrons depending upon its association with other atoms
Periodic Trends of Metallic , Non-Metallic and Metalloids
Within the Periodic Table Metallic properties decrease and Non-Metallic Properties increase as you proceed to the right in a period or up in a group.
Flourine is the most non-metallic and Francium is the most metallic
