Chapter 5 The Periodic Law

History Cannizzaro- 1860 presented a new method for determining mass of elements gave scientists a way to organize elements

History Mendeleev-Russian 1869 organized elements according to mass and properties noticed that properties repeated periodically predicted elements, later identified as Sc, Ga, Ge

History Moseley-1911 Used X-rays for determining the # of protons This is how our current periodic table is arranged.

Periodic Law Physical and chemical properties repeat periodically if arranged according to atomic number. Recurring or reappearing from time to time; intermittent. http: //www. thefreedictionary. com Look for overall patterns- may see some variation.

History Changes since Moseley Ø Ø Noble gases-Ramsay Lanthanides/Actinides- Seaborg

The Periodic Table TRENDS

Atomic Radius tells us the size of the atom measured using ½ the distance between the nuclei of identical atoms bonded together

Atomic Radius TREND: going across the atoms get smaller going down the atoms get larger

Ionic Radius tells us the size of the ion Ø positive or negative atom because of loss or gain of electrons Cation-positive ion Anion-negative ion

Ionic Radius Cations are smaller than the parent Lose electrons

Ionic Radius Anions are larger than the parent. Gain electrons.

Ion Formation Why do ions form? Ø Ø Ø Atoms try to become stable. Achieve a noble gas configuration. Become isoelectronic with noble gases Having the same electron configuration

Ion Formation Examples: Ø Calcium Ø Nitrogen

Ion Formation You try these: Ø Potassium Ø Iodine Ø Aluminum

Ionization Energy Amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom

Electron Affinity energy change when an electron is added to an atom energy release means it is easier to add e opposite of ionization energy

Electronegativity measure of the ability of an atom to attract electrons when it is bonded to another atom Think: sharing with a partner, equal sharing or unequal sharing
