Modern Periodic Table
Organized according to atomic number
Periods = rows 1-7
equal to the principal energy level
Groups= columns 1-18
elements have similar properties
Law:Properties of elements repeat as you
move from Left→ Rightacross a period
Period → Group ↓

Classifying Review
Which of the following are symbols for
representative elements
Na, Mg, , Cl?
Which of these metals is nota transition
metal?
a)Aluminum
b)Silver
c)Iron
d)Zirconium
Fe, Ni
Atomic Radius
Atoms are roughly spherical
Sphere size can be determined using the radius
Problem:
Solution:
Atomic Radii–half the
distance between the
nuclei of identical atoms
that are bonded together
Edges of orbitals are fuzzy and
difficult to measure…
Reference Table:
•Table S
Trends:
1. Across a period, the atomic radius →
Why?
Nuclei have larger positive charges
Electrons are pulled in closer
2. Down a group, the atomic radius →
Why?
Greater number of energy shells
Valence electrons are further away from the nucleus
decreases
increases
Atomic Radius Review
Which element in each pair has a larger
atomic radius?
a) & lithium
b) & bromine
c)carbon &
d) & neon
Arrange these elements in order of
decreasing atomic size: sulfur, chlorine,
aluminum, and sodium.
Sodium → Aluminum → Sulfur → Chlorine
sodium
calcium
germanium
fluorine
Ionization Energy
What is an ion?
An electrically charged atom
Atoms may either gainor loseelectrons
Loss of electrons = (+) charge →
Gain of electrons = (-) charge →
Ionization energy=
cation
anion
the amount of energy requiredto
remove the most loosely bound
electron
A + energyA

Reference Table
•Table S
Trends:
1. Across a period, the ionization energy →
Why?
Electrons are held closer to the nucleus
Electrons are more difficult to remove
2. Down a group, the ionization energy →
Why?
Electrons are further away from the nucleus
Electrons are easier to remove
Relate Back:

What type of relationship exists between
ionization energy and atomic radii?Inverse
Ionization Review
Which element in each pair has a greater
ionization energy?
a)lithium,
b)magnesium,
c)cesium,
Arrange the following groups in order of
increasing ionization energy
a)Be, Mg, Sr
b)Bi, Cs, Ba
c)Na, Al, S

Trends:
1. Across a period, ionic size →
Why?
When e

2. Down a group, ionic size →
Why?
Increased atomic radius

Electronegativity
A measure of the ability of an atom to attract a
pair of electrons when bonded to another atom
Ability to ‘pull’ electrons from another atom
Electrons pulled closer: Electrons pulled away:
Reference Table
•Table S
Trends:
1. Across a period, the electronegativity →
Why?
Atoms are very close to a stable octet
‘Pull’ electrons from other atoms
2. Down a group, the electronegativity →
Why?
Top atoms have few electrons, and hold them tightly
Bottom atoms have numerous electrons and little desire
to acquire more
increases
decreases
Electronegativity Review
Which element in each pair has a higher
electronegativity value?
