Remember this diagram electronic configurations. inner core electron valence electron The Aufbau Process is used to generate the electronic configuration of elements filling the lowest energy orbitals sequentially. 1. Lower energy orbitals fill first (smaller n). 2. Hund s Rule-degenerate (i.e. orbitals with the same energy) orbitals fill one at a time before electrons are paired in an orbital. 3.

We must know these properties and be able to apply them! Here s a different view on one periodic table! Know these properties cold (see homework and examples) Amount of energy to remove 1 mole e - from 1 mole of gaseous atoms or element Amount of energy to add 1 mole e - to 1 mole of gaseous atoms or element ns 2 np 1 Electrons in elements are categorized either as inner-core electrons or outer valence-electrons. Inner core electrons shield or screen outer electrons from the positive charge of the nucleus. 1) Inner core electrons : electrons residing in the lower n shells of an element--located closer to the nucleus. 2. Outer core or VALENCE e - : total number of e - in the highest n-value shell. The number of valence e - is given by the Group Number in the periodic table for Group A representative elements. n =2 n =3 n =4 n =5 n =6 inner core electron valence electron Screening Impacts 1) alters the energy levels spacing & ordering in manyelectron atoms. 2) outer e- screened by inner electrons. Effective nuclear charge (Z eff ) is the electrostatic force felt by the outer valence electrons taking into shielding by internal core electrons. To a good approximation: effective nuclear charge, Zeff, is given by: ns 1 ns 2 ns 2 The number of valence electrons can be found by counting the # of e - in the outer most shell (main-group elements only) d 1 d 5 d 10 ns 2 np 2 ns 2 np 3 ns 2 np 4 ns 2 np 5 ns 2 np 6 Z eff = Z core e- d 1 d 5 Effective Nuclear charge # protons in atom # of inner core non-valence electrons Larger Zeff means more pull or electrostatic force between nucleus and electrons. 4f 5f

Know this trend and others follow! increasing Z eff Z eff Increases Atomic radii decrease across a Period because the effective nuclear increases. Down a group the atomic radi get larger! Decreasing Atomic Radius Using only the periodic table rank each set of main group elements in order of decreasing atomic size: Increasing n (a) Ca, Mg, Sr (b) K, Ga, Ca (c) Br, Rb, Kr (d) Sr, Ca, Rb Using only the periodic table rank each set of main group elements in order of decreasing atomic size: (a) Ca, Mg, Sr SOLUTION: (a) Sr > Ca > Mg (b) K > Ca > Ga (c) Rb > Br > Kr (d) Rb > Sr > Ca (b) K, Ga, Ca (c) Br, Rb, Kr (d) Sr, Ca, Rb These elements are in Group 2A(2). These elements are in Period 4. Rb has a higher n engery level and is far to the left. Br is to the left of Kr. Ca is one energy level smaller than Rb and Sr. Rb is to the left of Sr. The atomic radii of cations are smaller than their ground state atoms, while anions are larger than their ground state atom (i.e. remove e - => smaller, add e - => bigger) Greater cation charge => smaller & vis versa Cations get smaller (greater Z eff) Anions get larger (lower Z eff)

Ranking Ions by Size Rank each set of ions in order of decreasing size, and explain your ranking: (a) Ca 2+, Sr 2+, Mg 2+ (b) K +, S 2!, Cl! (c) Au +, Au 3+ PLAN: Compare positions in the periodic table, formation of positive and negative ions and changes in size due to gain or loss of electrons. Ranking Ions by Size Rank each set of ions in order of decreasing size, and explain your ranking: (a) Ca 2+, Sr 2+, Mg 2+ Sr 2+ > Ca 2+ > Mg 2+ These are members of the same Group 2A(2) and therefore decrease in size going up the group. (b) K +, S 2!, Cl! S 2! > Cl! > K + The ions are isoelectronic; S 2! has the smallest Z eff and therefore is the largest while K + is a cation with a large Z eff and is the smallest. (c) Au +, Au 3+ Au + > Au 3+ The higher the + charge, the smaller the ion. Ionization energy is the minimum energy (kj/mol) required to remove 1 mole of e - from one mole of a gaseous atom in its ground state. Electron affinity is the energy required to add (reduce) 1 mole of e - to an atom in the gas state to form an anion. It s a measure of an atom s ability to accept an e -. higher nuclear charge => smaller diameter => harder to remove e - First ionization energies of the main-group elements. How hard it is to remove an electron Electron affinity is largest (most negative) for chlorine and fluorine (i.e like to gain electroncs = reduced). The increasing effective nuclear Charge (Z eff ) and it s impact on atomic radius can help us understand the trend in ionization energies of elements. higher nuclear charge => smaller diameter => harder to remove e - Easily oxidized metal

We can remove more than 1 electron from a ground state atom. It requires more energy to remove subsequent electrons. The ionization energy increases dramatically when an core electron is removed from a nonvalence shell (blue area shows big jumps in IE).

(b) Sb, Te, Sn Te > Sb > Sn Period 5 elements - IE increases across a period. Ca > K > Rb Ca is to the right of K; Rb is below K. (d) I, Xe, Cs Xe > I > Cs I is to the left of Xe; Cs is further to the left and down one period. Identifying an Element from Successive Ionization Energies Name the Period 3 element with the following ionization energies (in kj/mol) and write its electron configuration: Identifying an Element from Successive Ionization Energies Name the Period 3 element with the following ionization energies (in kj/mol) and write its electron configuration: IE 1 IE 2 IE 3 IE 4 IE 5 IE 6 1012 1903 2910 4956 6278 22,230 IE 1 IE 2 IE 3 IE 4 IE 5 1012 1903 2910 4956 6278 IE 6 22,230 PLAN: Look for a large increase in energy which indicates that all of the valence electrons have been removed. The number valence electrons is reflected in the periodic table for Group A elements...find the group with that number of valence electrons. SOLUTION: The largest increase occurs after IE 5, that is, after the 5th valence electron has been removed. Five electrons would mean that the valence configuration is 3s 2 3p 3 and the element must be phosphorous, P (Z = 15). The electron configuration is: 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 3.

Metallic behavior increases as we move down a group and from left to right on the periodic table. --Metals have low IE -- Tend to be oxidized to metal ions. --Charge is group numbers Main Group (or representative) metals form ionic basic oxides when reacted with oxygen while nonmetals form covalent acidic oxides with oxygen.
