Trends in Bonding Across Period 3

Page 2: Periodicity Trends in Bonding Across Period 3. On crossing period 3, the ionisation energies of the elements increase so it becomes more difficult to.

• On crossing period 3, the ionisation energies of the elements increase so it becomes more difficult to remove electrons and form metallic structures.

• Covalent bonding becomes more common on crossing a period from left to right.

Argon

• Argon is a noble gas and will form neither metallic nor covalent bonds.

• The ionisation energy is very high so metallic bonding is not possible.

• There are no unpaired electrons so covalent bonding is not possible.

• It forms no bonds and exists as a free gaseous atom.
