Chapter 8 Periodic Properties of the Elements
For an atom, electrons are in atomic orbitals. Energy of atomic orbitals
Orbital Energy Levels for the Hydrogen Atom H atom: E only depends on n degenerate
E depends on n andl same n, l↑ ↔ E↑
Spin quantum number ms ms = +1/2 or −1/2 4 quantum numbers are used to specify an electron. How do electrons fill up atomic orbitals?
Pauli Exclusion Principle In a given atom, no two electrons can have the same set of four quantum numbers. An orbital can hold only two electrons, they must have opposite spins.
H atom electron configuration 1s1 Lowest energy: ground state ↑ 1s 2s1 ↑ 2s Excited states 2p1 ↑ 2p orbital diagram
Now we can write the ground state electron configurations and draw orbital diagrams according to Pauli principle.
Hund’s rule For degenerate orbitals, the lowest energy is attained when the number of electrons with the same spin is maximized. Valence electrons: electrons in the outermost shell. involved in bonding Core electrons: inner electrons
Elements in the same group have similar valence electron configuration — similar chemical properties. Number of valence electrons = main group number Number of filled shells = period number Noble gases have 8 (He 2) valence electrons. Stable structure. Metals: tend to lose valence electrons to reach 8(2) valence electron. Nonmetals: tend to gain electrons to reach 8(2) valence electrons.
Periodic trends in atomic properties • Atomic radius
Atomic radius In a period: decreases from left to right In a group: increases from top to bottom
EXAMPLE 8.5 Atomic Size On the basis of periodic trends, choose the larger atom in each pair (if possible). Explain your choices. (a) N or F (b) C or Ge (c) N or Al (d) Al or Ge
EXAMPLE 8.7 Ion Size Choose the larger atom or ion from each pair. (a) S or S2–(b) Ca or Ca2+(c) Br– or Kr
Periodic trends in atomic properties • Atomic radius • Ionization energy
Ionization energy Energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion. X(g) X+(g) + e− first ionization energy X+(g) X2+(g) + e− second ionization energy
Ionization energy In a period: increases from left to right In a group: decreases from top to bottom (general trend)
Periodic trends in atomic properties • Atomic radius • Ionization energy • Electron affinity
Electron affinity Energy change associated with the addition of an electron to a gaseous atom. X(g) + e− X−(g) X(g) + e− E Ei X−(g) Ef ∆E = Ef − Ei = EA < 0
Electron affinity In a period: increases from left to right In a group: no clear trend (very rough trend)
Periodic trends in atomic properties • Atomic radius • Ionization energy • Electron affinity Remember the trends
