Mendeleev’s Periodic Law Arranged the 65 known elements by atomic mass and by recurrence of various physical and chemical properties. The Periodic Table today is very similar but arranged according to atomic number (number of protons). The arrangement led to families of elements with similar properties and at the time allowed for the prediction and properties of elements yet to be discovered.

Remember from Chapter 7 - Quantum Numbers and Atomic Orbitals An atomic orbital is specified by three quantum numbers. nthe principal quantum number - a positive integer lthe angular momentum quantum number - an integer from 0 to n-1 mlthe magnetic moment quantum number - an integer from -l to +l The three quantum numbers are actually giving the energy of the electron in the orbital and a fourth q.n. is needed to describe a property of electrons called spin. The spin can be clockwise or counterclockwise.The spin q.n., ms can be + ½ or - ½ . The Pauli Exclusion Principle - No two electrons in the same atom can have the same four q.n. Since the first three q.n. define the orbital, this means only two electrons can be in the same orbital and they must have opposite spins.
principal n positive integers(1,2,3,…) orbital energy (size) angular momentum l integers from 0 to n-1 orbital shape (The l values 0, 1, 2, and 3 correspond to s, p, d, and f orbitals, respectively.) magnetic ml integers from -l to 0 to +l orbital orientation spin ms +1/2 or -1/2 direction of e- spin Table 8.2 Summary of Quantum Numbers of Electrons in Atoms Name Symbol Permitted Values Property
The Effect of Nuclear Charge (Zeffective) The Effect of Electron Repulsions (Shielding) Factors Affecting Atomic Orbital Energies Higher nuclear charge lowers orbital energy (stabilizes the system) by increasing nucleus-electron attractions. Additional electron in the same orbital (makes less stable) An additional electron raises the orbital energy through electron-electron repulsions. Additional electrons in inner orbitals (makes outer orbital less stable) Inner electrons shield outer electrons more effectively than do electrons in the same sublevel.

Trends in the Periodic Table The first three ionization energies of beryllium (in MJ/mol)
PROBLEM: Name the Period 3 element with the following ionization energies (in kJ/mol) and write its electron configuration: IE1 IE2 IE3 IE4 IE5 IE6 1012 1903 2910 4956 6278 22,230 SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.5 Identifying an Element from Successive Ionization Energies PLAN: Look for a large increase in energy which indicates that all of the valence electrons have been removed. SOLUTION: The largest increase occurs after IE5, that is, after the 5th valence electron has been removed. Five electrons would mean that the valence configuration is 3s23p3 and the element must be phosphorous, P (Z = 15). The complete electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p3.

PROBLEM: Rank each set of ions in order of decreasing size, and explain your ranking: SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.8 Ranking Ions by Size (a) Ca2+, Sr2+, Mg2+ (b) K+, S2-, Cl - (c) Au+, Au3+ PLAN: Compare positions in the periodic table, formation of positive and negative ions and changes in size due to gain or loss of electrons. SOLUTION: (a) Sr2+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ These are members of the same Group (2A/2) and therefore decrease in size going up the group. The ions are isoelectronic; S2- has the smallest Zeff and therefore is the largest while K+ is a cation with a large Zeff and is the smallest. (b) S2- > Cl - > K+ (c) Au+ > Au3+ The higher the + charge, the smaller the ion.
