Radii of atoms increase down a group.

For each step down a group, electrons enter the next higher energy level.

Page 13: 1 2 Periodic Trends in Atomic Properties 3 Characteristic properties and trends of the elements are the basis of the periodic table’s design.

13

Radii of atoms tend to decrease from left to right across a period.

For representative elements within the same period the energy level remains constant as electrons are added.

Each time an electron is added a proton is a added to the nucleus.

This increase in positive nuclear charge pulls all electrons closer to the nucleus.

Covalent bonding in the hydrogen molecule

Two 1s orbitals from each of two hydrogen atoms overlap.

Each 1s orbital contains 1 electron.

The orbital of the electrons includes both hydrogen nuclei.

The most likely region to find the two electrons is between the two nuclei.

The two nuclei are shielded from each other by the electron pair. This allows the two nuclei to draw close together.

Two 1s orbitals from each of two hydrogen atoms overlap.

electronegativity The relative attraction that an atom has for a pair of shared electrons in a covalent bond.

Page 35: 1 2 Periodic Trends in Atomic Properties 3 Characteristic properties and trends of the elements are the basis of the periodic table’s design.

39

• If the two atoms that constitute a covalent bond are identical then there is equal sharing of electrons.

• This is called nonpolar covalent bonding.

• Ionic bonding and nonpolar covalent bonding represent two extremes.

Page 36: 1 2 Periodic Trends in Atomic Properties 3 Characteristic properties and trends of the elements are the basis of the periodic table’s design.

40

• If the two atoms that constitute a covalent bond are not identical then there is unequal sharing of electrons.

• This is called polar covalent bonding.

• One atom assumes a partial positive charge and the other atom assumes a partial negative charge.– This charge difference is a result of the

unequal attractions the atoms have for their shared electron pair.

The VSEPR model is based on the idea that electron pairs will repel each other electrically and will seek to minimize this repulsion.

To accomplish this minimization, the electron pairs will be arranged as far apart as possible around a central atom.
