Development of the Periodic Table • Mendeleev: • Considered to be the father of the periodic table • Arranged elements by increasing atomic mass • Placed elements with similar properties in columns • Left blank spaces for undiscovered elements • Was able to accurately predict properties of the undiscovered elements
The Modern Periodic Table • Moseley • Arranged elements by increasing atomic number • Gave a clearer pattern of periodic properties • Periodic Law: there is a periodic repetition of chemical and physical properties of elements when they are arranged by increasing atomic number
Arrangement of the table • Groups/Families • Columns of elements • Numbered 1 to 18 • Elements have similar properties • Elements have the same # of valence electrons • Periods • Rows of elements • Numbered 1 to 7 • Corresponds to number of energy levels of an atom
Groups with Special Names • Group 1: • Alkali Metals • Group 2: • Alkaline Earth Metals • Groups 3 -12: • Transition Metals • Group 17 • Halogens • Group 18 • Noble Gases
Each group contains elements with the same number of valence electrons
Example 1 • Without drawing electron configurations, determine the number of valence electrons for each of the following: • A. Calcium • B. Neon • C. Sodium • D. Aluminum • E. Sulfur
Periodic Trends Valence electrons Atomic Radius Ionization Energy: Energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom Electronegativity: The attraction of an atom for shared electrons in a covalent bond
Atomic Radius Increases from top to bottom in a group Decreases from left to right across a period
Example 2 • Arrange each of the following in order of increasing atomic radius (smallest largest) • A. Calcium, Magnesium, Barium • B. Fluorine, Iodine, Chlorine • C. Calcium, Arsenic, Bromine • D. Chlorine, Fluorine, Oxygen
Ionization Energy Increases from left to right across a period Decreases from top to bottom in a group
Example 3 • Place the following in order of increasing ionization energy (lowest highest) • A. Sulfur, Oxygen, Selenium • B. Calcium, Magnesium, Beryllium • C. Lithium, Fluorine, Nitrogen • D. Carbon, Silicon, Nitrogen
Electronegatvity Increases from left to right across a period Decreases from top to bottom in a group
Example 4 • Determine the most electronegative element in each pair • A. Calcium, sulfur • B. sulfur, chlorine • C. potassium, bromine • D. Silicon, phosphorus
Octet Rule • Typically, elements want to have 8 valence electrons (except hydrogen and helium) in order to be stable • Noble gases are stable because they have 8 valence electrons • Other elements will lose, gain, or share electrons in order to have 8 valence
Becoming Stable • Remember atoms are neutral because they have equal #’s of protons and electrons • When an atom gains or loses electrons, this equality is upset… • The atom is no longer neutral…and is no longer called an atom
Ions • An ion is an atom that has an electric charge because it has lost or gained electrons • If an atom loses electrons, its charge will become positive. It is called a cation. • If an atom gains electrons, its charge will become negative. It is called an anion.
Ionic Charges • The number of electrons that an atom will gain or lose in order to become stable determines its ionic charge • Metals lose electrons and have + charge (These are called cations) • Nonmetals gain electrons and have – charge (These are called anions)
Size of Ions Cations (+ charges) are smaller than their parent atoms Anions (- charges) are larger than their parent atoms
Example 5 • Determine the ionic charge for each of the following. Indicate if it is a cation or an anion: • A. Magnesium • B. Chlorine • C. Oxygen • D. Sodium • E. Nitrogen
Naming Ions • If the ion is positive…name it the atom’s name followed by the word ion • Example: Sodium is Na1+…its name is Sodium ion • If the ion is negative…change the atom’s name to have an –ide ending then write the word ion • Example: Chlorine is Cl1-…its name is chloride ion
Example 6 • Indicate the ionic charge and the name of the ion formed from each of the following elements: • A. Potassium • B. Bromine • C. Aluminum • D. Cesium • E. Fluorine
