Trends in the Periodic Table

Trends in the Periodic Table. Trends in Mass. As you move from left to right across a period, mass increases As you move from top to bottom down a group, mass increases Masses get larger in both these cases as the atoms have more protons, neutrons and electrons. Trends in Atomic Radius.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Trends in the Periodic Table

  2. Trends in Mass • As you move from left to right across a period, mass increases • As you move from top to bottom down a group, mass increases • Masses get larger in both these cases as the atoms have more protons, neutrons and electrons

  3. Trends in Atomic Radius • As you move from left to right across a period atomic radius DECREASES!! • This is because the electrons are “pulled in” closer to the nucleus as the number of protons increases….the atom “shrinks” in a bit. • See graph on p. 23

  4. Trends in Atomic Radius • As you move from top to bottom down a group, atomic radius INCREASES as the atoms have more electron shells.

  5. Trends in Reactivity for Metals • As you move from left to right across a period, reactivity decreases for metals • As you move from top to bottom down a group, reactivity increases for metals The most reactive metal is francium (Fr)

  6. Trends in Reactivity for Non-metals • As you move from left to right across a period, reactivity for non-metals increases • As you move from top to bottom down a group, reactivity for non-metals decreases. • Remember the noble gases are NON-REACTIVE, so the most reactive non-metal is fluorine (F)

  7. Trends in Ionization Energy • Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the outermost electron from an atom • Ionization energy increases across a period and decreases down a group

  8. Trends in Ionization Energy
