  12. Allotropes Some elements exist in more than one structural form. This property is called ALLOTROPY Consider carbon – 2 common allotropes are graphite and diamond. Both consist only of atoms of carbon, C, but their structures are very different, and hence their properties differ This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  16. The Octet Rule Because filled orbitals give the best STABILITY, all elements try to attain a noble gas configuration (i.e. 8 electrons in their valence shell) 2 ways of doing this: (i) losing electrons; or (ii) gaining electrons (which ever uses the least energy) This is the driving force behind the chemistry of the elements and is called theOCTET RULE This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  17. The Periodic Table ns2np3 ns2np4 ns2np2 ns2np6 ns2np1 ns2np5 ns1 ns2 Hydrogen and s – block elements p – block elements n=1 H He d – block elements n=2 B Li Be C N O F Ne n=3 Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar n=4 K Ca Sc Ti V Cr Mn Fe Co Ni Cu Zn Ga Ge As Se Br Kr n=5 Rb Sr Y Zr Nb Mo Tc Ru Rh Pd Ag Cd In Sn Sb Te I Xe n=6 Cs Ba La Hf Ta W Re Os Ir Pt Au Hg Tl Pb Bi Po At Rn n=7 f - block elements Fr Ra Ac Lanthanoids Ce Pr Nd Pm Sm Eu Gd Tb Dy Ho Er Tm Yb Lu Actinoids Th Pa U Np Pu Am Cm Bk Cf Es Fm Md No Lr The Periodic Table consists of rows of 8 elements (s + p block only) Each row corresponds to a different quantum number (n=1–7) Each column has the same VALENCE CONFIGURATION This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  18. Definition AnION is a charged atom or molecule. There are 2 types of ion: ACATIONis positively charged AnANIONis negatively charged This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  19. Cations • Cations are formed when an atom loses 1 or more valence electron: Na  Na++ e- Mg  Mg2++ 2e- • The loss of electrons is known as OXIDATION and is a typical reaction of metals This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  20. Valence Electrons This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  21. Group 1 & 2 elements (metals) Group 1Group 2 Group 1 = [NG]ns1 Group 2 = [NG]ns2 Elements in these groups want toLOSEtheir outer (valence) electrons to gain the noble gas configuration[NG]: Na  Na++ e- Mg  Mg2++ 2e- Electronic configuration of both cations = [Ne] The energy required to remove a valence electron is called theIONISATION ENERGY This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  22. Anions • Anions are formed when an atom gains 1 or more valence electron: F + e- F- O + 2e- O2- • The gain of electrons is known as REDUCTION and is a typical reaction of non-metals This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  23. Group 16 & 17 elements (non-metals) Groups 16 17 18 Group 16 = [NG]ns2np4 Group 17 = [NG]ns2np5 Elements in these groups want toGAINvalence electrons to attain the noble gas configuration[NG] ns2np6, which is the noble gas sitting on their RHS in the Periodic Table F + e-  F- O + 2e- O2- Electronic configuration of both anions = [Ne] Electron affinityis a measure of how easy it is to gain a valence electron This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  25. In 1913 Soddy proposed the existence ofISOTOPES Definition: Atoms of the same elements with different atomic masses Definition Frederick Soddy Nobel Prize (Chemistry) 1921 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  26. Definition Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons Eg. 63 Mass number (A) Protons (Z) = 29 Neutrons (N) = 34 Cu 29 Atomic number (Z) 65 Protons (Z) = 29 Neutrons (N) = 36 Cu 29 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  31. Atomic Mass, A • For simplicity, atomic masses are given relative to the mass of 12C • 12C = 12.0000 amu • amu = atomic mass unit = 1.660x 10-27kg similar to the mass of a proton or neutron (see Lecture 1) Mass number (A) is used as the atomic mass This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

  32. Relative Atomic Mass, Ar Atomic mass Mg 24 78.7 Mg 25 10.1 Mg 26 11.2 % abundance The relative atomic mass of an element is the weighted mean of the atomic masses of all the stable isotopes for that element. For example: Ar (Mg) = 24.3 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License
