Unit 3 Notes: Periodic Table Notes • John Newlands proposed an organization system based on increasing

atomic mass in 1864.

• He noticed that both the chemical and physical properties repeated every 8

elements and called this the ____Law of Octaves ___________.

• In 1869 both Lothar Meyer and Dmitri Mendeleev showed a connection

between atomic mass and an element’s properties.

• Mendeleev published first, and is given credit for this.

• He also noticed a periodic pattern when elements were ordered by

increasing ___Atomic Mass _______________________________.

• By arranging elements in order of increasing atomic mass into columns,

Mendeleev created the first Periodic Table.

• This table also predicted the existence and properties of undiscovered

elements.

• After many new elements were discovered, it appeared that a number of

elements were out of order based on their _____Properties_________.

• In 1913 Henry Mosley discovered that each element contains a unique

number of ___Protons________________.

• By rearranging the elements based on _________Atomic Number___, the

problems with the Periodic Table were corrected.

• This new arrangement creates a periodic repetition of both physical and

chemical properties known as the ____Periodic Law___.

Periods are the ____Rows_____ Groups/Families are the Columns Valence electrons across a period are

in the same energy level

There are equal numbers of valence

electrons in a group.

• When elements are arranged in order of increasing _Atomic Number_,

there is a periodic repetition of their physical and chemical properties

• Family (Group): ___Columns (vertical)______; tells the number of electrons

in the _Outer___ Energy level, called __Valence Electrons________ (only

for representative elements)

• Period (Series): __Rows (horizontal)____; tells the number of ____Energy

Levels__________ an atom has; the number of electrons __Increases__

across a period

• Representative Elements: Groups __1A through 8A _ (called the s and p

blocks) (Columns 1, 2, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18)

• Valence Electrons: e- in the ___outer most energy level____; farthest away

from the __nucleus (protons)___; the e- with the ___most reactive____

Energy; the e- involved with ___Bonding____ (transferred or shared)

• Metals: most of the periodic table, located to the __Left___ of the “stair-step”

Properties- good conductors of _heat_ and _Electricity_; they also are

__ Malleable___; __ Ductile____; _ High Density, BP and MP_____

• Nonmetals: to the Right of the “stair-step”, located in the upper corner of

P.T._

• Although five times more elements are metals than nonmetals, two

of the nonmetals—hydrogen and helium—make up over 99 per cent

of the observable Universe

• Properties- mostly _ Brittle __, but a few _low luster______ and _poor

conductors__; they have _ low density, low MP and BP__

• Metalloids: also called _semi-metals__, located _along_ the “stair-step”

• Some metalloids are shiny (silicon), some are not (gallium)

• Metalloids tend to be brittle, as are nonmetals.

• Metalloids tend to have high MP and BP like metals.

• Metalloids tend to have high density, like metals.

• Metalloids are semiconductors of electricity – somewhere between

metals and nonmetals. This makes them good for manufacturing

computer chips.

Why?

- _more_ e-, so it’s __harder_ for protons to pull in outermost e-

Shielding:

The ability of the _inner (lower levels)_ electrons to _shield (reduce)_ the pull

of the _protons_ on the _outer (higher levels)__ electrons.

“Shielding effect”_increase_ as you add Energy levels (move down a group)

Quantum Model Notes

• Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle- Can determine either the _velocity or the

position of an electron, cannot determine both.

• Schrödinger's Equation - Developed an equation that treated the hydrogen

atom's electron as a wave.

o Only limits the electron's energy values, does not attempt to describe the

electron's path.

• Describe probability of finding an electron in a given area of orbit.

• The Quantum Model- atomic orbitals are used to describe the possible position

of an electron.

Orbitals

• The location of an electron in an atom is described with 4 terms.

o Energy Level- Described by intergers. The higher the level, the more energy

an electron has to have in order to exist in that region.

o Sublevels- energy levels are divided into sublevels. The # of sublevels

contained within an energy level is equal to the integer of the energy level.

o Orbitals- Each sublevel is subdivided into orbitals. Each orbital can hold 2

electrons.

o Spin- Electrons can be spinning clockwise (+) or counterclockwise (-) within

the orbital.

Periodic Table Activity:

Complete the table on page 21 with the information found on pages 18-20. When complete color each group in

a different color in the periodic table.

The Periodic Table Notes:

Historical development of the periodic table: Highlights

• Mendeleev (1869): Put the elements into columns according to their properties. Generally ranked

elements by increasing atomic mass.

• Moseley (1911): Periodic table arranged by atomic number

Top table: Metals, nonmetals, and metalloids

• Metals: Explain the electron sea theory, and as you explain each of the properties below, discuss how

they are explained by the electron sea theory. Also make sure to explain that these are general

properties and may not be true for all metals.

o Malleable: Can be pounded into sheets.

o Ductile: Can be drawn into wires

o Good conductors of heat and electricity

o High density (usually)

o High MP and BP (usually)

o Shiny

o Hard

• Nonmetals: Explain how the bonds between the atoms are highly localized, causing each of the

properties below. Again, emphasize that these are general properties and may not be true for all

nonmetals.

o Brittle

o Poor conductors of heat and electricity

o Low density

o Low MP and BP (many are gases)!

• Metalloids: The bonding in metalloids is between that of metals and nonmetals, so metalloids have

properties of both.

o Some metalloids are shiny (silicon), some are not (gallium)

o Metalloids tend to be brittle, as are nonmetals.

o Metalloids tend to have high MP and BP like metals.

o Metalloids tend to have high density, like metals.

o Metalloids are semiconductors of electricity – somewhere between metals and nonmetals. This

makes them good for manufacturing computer chips.

Structure of the periodic table

• Families/groups (the terms are synonymous and will be used interchangeably)

o These are elements in the same columns of the periodic table.

o Elements within families/groups tend to have similar physical and chemical properties.

o They have similar chemical and physical properties because they have similar electron

configurations.

� Example: Li = [He] 2s1, Na = [Ne] 3s

1 – each has one electron in the outermost

energy level.

o Explain that s- and p-electrons in the outermost energy level are responsible for the reactions

that take place.

� Valence electrons: The outermost s- and p-electrons in an atom.

� Show them how to find the number of valence electrons for each atom and explain that

they are only relevant for s- and p- electrons. Do several examples.

• Periods: Elements in the same rows of the periodic table

o Elements in the same period have valence electrons in the same energy levels as one another.

o Though you’d think this was important, it has very little effect on making the properties of the

elements within a period similar to one another.

� The closer elements are to each other in the same period, the closer are their chemical

and physical properties.

• Other fun locales in the periodic table:

o Main block elements: These are the s- and p- sections of the periodic table (groups 1,2, 13-18)

o Transition elements: These are the elements in the d- and f-blocks of the periodic table.

� The term “transition element”, while technically referring to the d- and f-blocks, usually

refers only to the d-block.

� Technically, the d-block elements are the “outer transition elements”

� Technically, the f-block elements are the “inner transition elements”

Major families in the periodic table:

(Show them examples of these elements – if available – and color each family as I discuss their properties)

• Group 1 (except for hydrogen) – Alkali metals

o Most reactive group of metals

o Flammable in air and water

o Form ions with +1 charge

o Low MP and BP (MP of Li = 181º C, Na = 98º C)

o Soft (Na can be cut with a knife)

o Low density (Li = 0.535, Na = 0.968)

• Group 2: Alkaline earth metals

o Reactive, but less so than alkali metals

o React in air and water (show Ca reacting in water)

o Form ions with +2 charge

o Low MP and BP, but higher than alkali metals (MP of Ba= 302º C, Mg = 649ºC

o Soft, but harder than alkali metals

o Low density, but higher than that of alkali metals (Ca = 1.55, Mg = 1.74).

• Groups 3-12: (Outer) transition metals

o Note: These are general properties and may vary from transition metal to transition metal!

There are many exceptions to each of these rules!

o Stable and unreactive.

o Hard

8

o High MP and BP (Fe = 1535º C, Ti = 1660º C).

o High density (Fe = 7.87, Ir = 22.4)

o Form ions with various positive charges (usually include +2 and several others)

o Used for high strength/hardness applications, electrical wiring, jewelry

• Inner Transition Metals: Lanthanides and actinides

o Lanthanides (4f section)

� Also called the rare earth metals, because they’re rare.

� Usually intermediate in reactivity between alkaline earth metals and transition metals.

� High MP and BP

� Used in light bulbs and TV screens as phosphors.

o Actinides (5f section)

� Many have high densities

� Most are radioactive and manmade

� Melting points vary, but usually higher than alkaline earth metals.

� Reactivity varies greatly

� Used for nuclear power/weapons, radiation therapy, fire alarms.

• Group 13: Boron Group

• Group 14: Carbon Group

• Group 15: Nitrogen Group

• Group 16: Oxygen Group

• Group 17: Halogens

o The most highly reactive nonmetals.

o Highly volatile – F and Cl are gases, Br is a volatile liquid, and I is an easily sublimed solid.

o Strong oxidizers – they readily pull electrons from other atoms.

o Diatomic – form molecules with formula of X2

o Form ions with -1 charge

o Used in water treatment and chemical production – Cl2 was used as a chemical weapon in World

War I.

• Group 18: Noble Gases

o Highly unreactive

o Used to provide the atmosphere in situations where you don’t want chemical reactions to occur

(light bulbs, glove boxes, etc).

• Hydrogen – “The Weirdo”

o Has properties unlike any other element

o Diatomic – H2

o Can form either a +1 or -1 charge

o Relatively unreactive unless energy is added (under most conditions) – it can form explosive

mixtures with oxygen (as it did in the Hindenburg explosion)

Orbital Diagrams Energy Level

• Indicates relative sizes and energies of atomic orbitals. Whole numbers, ranging

from 1 to 7.

• The energy level is represented by the letter n.

Sublevels

• Number of sublevels present in each energy level is equal to the n.

• Sublevels are represented by the letter llll.

• In order of increasing energy:

s<p<d<f

Orbitals

• Represented by ml

• S Sublevel- Only 1 orbital in this sublevel level.

• P Sublevel- 3 orbitals present in this sublevel.

o Each orbital can only have 2 electrons.

• D Sublevel- 5 orbitals present in this sublevel.

Orbital Diagrams

• An orbital diagram shows the arrangement of electrons in an atom.

• The electrons are arranged in energy levels, then sublevels, then orbitals. Each orbital can only contain 2 electrons.

• Three rules must be followed when making an orbital diagram. o Aufbau Principle- An electron will occupy the lowest_ energy orbital

that can receive it. � To determine which orbital will have the lowest energy, look to

the periodic table. o Hund’s Rule- Orbitals of equal energy must each contain one

electron before electrons begin pairing. o Pauli Exclusion Principle- If two electrons are to occupy the same

orbital, they must be spinning in opposite directions.

• Energy Levels (n) determined by the ROWS

• Sub Levels (s,p,d,f)- determined by the sections

• Orbitals - determined by the # of columns per sublevel

Electron Configurations and Oxidation States

• Electron configurations are shorthand for orbital diagrams. The electrons are

not shown in specific orbitals nor are they shown with their specific spins.

• Draw the orbital diagram of oxygen:

• The electron configuration should be:

1s22s22p4

• Manganese (25)

1s22s22p63s23p64s23d5

• Arsenic (33)

1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p3

• Promethium (61)

1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d105p66s24f4

• The Noble Gas shortcut can be used to represent the electron configuration

for atoms with many electrons. Noble gases have a full s and p and therefore

can be used to represent the inner shell electrons of larger atoms.

• For example: Write the electron configuration for Lead.

• Write the electron configuration for Xenon.

• Substitution can be used:

• Manganese (25)

Mn = [Ar] 4s23d5

• Arsenic (33)

As = [Ar] 4s23d104p3

• Promethium (61)

Pm = [Xe] 6s24f45d1

• Valence electrons, or outer shell electrons, can be designated by the s and p

sublevels in the highest energy levels

• Write the noble gas shortcut for Bromine

Br = [Ar]4s23d

104p

5

• Write only the s and p to represent the valence level.

Br = 4s24p

• This is the Valence Configuration. Bromine has 7 valence electrons.

• Silicon

[Ne] 3s23p2 3s23p2 4 valence electrons

• Uranium

[Rn] 7s25f46d1 7s2 2 valence electrons

• Lead

[Xe] 6s24f145d106p2 6s26p2 4 valence electrons

Octet Rule and Oxidation States

• The octet rule states the electrons need __eight___ valence electrons in order to

achieve maximum stability. In order to do this, elements will gain, lose or share

electrons.

• Write the Valence configuration for oxygen

O = 2s22p

4- 6 valence electrons

• Oxygen will gain 2 electrons to achieve maximum stability

O-2

= 2s22p

6- 8 valence electrons

o Now, oxygen has 2 more electrons than protons and the resulting charge of

the atom will be -2

o The symbol of the ___ion____ formed is now O-2

.

• Elements want to be like the Noble Gas family, so they will gain or lose electrons

to get the same configuration as a noble gas.

• When an element gains or losses an electron, it is called an __ion___.

• An ion with a positive charge is a ____cation (lost electrons)_____.

• An ion with a negative charge is an ___anion (gained electrons)___.

Quantum Number Notes • The quantum mechanical model uses three quantum numbers, n, l and ml to describe an

orbital in an atom. A fourth quantum number, ms, describes an individual electron in an

orbital.

• n = principle quantum number (energy level quantum number)

o This describes the energy level and can be described as an integer from 1-7. The

larger the number, the larger the orbital. As the numbers increase, the electron will

have greater energy and will be less tightly bound by the nucleus.

• l = azimuthal quantum number (sublevel quantum number)

o This describes the shape of the orbital level and can be described as an integer from

0 to n-1.

o 0 is used to describe s orbitals; 1 is used to describe p orbitals.

o 2 is used to describe d orbitals; 3 is used to describe f orbitals.

• ml= magnetic quantum number (orbital quantum number)

o This describes the orientation of the orbital in space and can be described as an

integer from -l to l

o s sublevels have one orbital, therefore possible values of ml include 0 only.

o p sublevels have three orbitals, therefore possible values of ml include -1, 0, 1.

o d sublevels have five orbitals, therefore possible values of ml include -2, -1, 0, 1, 2.

o What about f?

• ms= electron spin quantum number

o This describes the spin of the electron in the orbital.

o The possible values for ms are +½ and ½.

o The positive spin reflects the first electron in a specific orbital and negative spin

reflects the second electron in an orbital.

• Examples:

o Give the four quantum numbers for the 8th electron in Argon:

n = 2, l = 1, ml = -1, ms = -1/2

o What is the maximum number of electrons that can have the following quantum

numbers: n = 2 and ms = -½

4 (2 electrons in the s sublevel, 4 in the p sublevel, that’s 8 electrons total, half have +1/2 spin and half have -1/2 spin)

o Which of the following quantum numbers would NOT be allowed in an atom

n = 2, l = 2 and ml = -1 not allowed (when n=2, l cannot = 2)

n = 4, l = 2 and ml = -1 allowed

n = 3, l = 1 and ml = 0 allowed

n = 5, l = 0 and ml = 1 not allowed (when l = 0, ml can only = 0)

Periodic Trends- Review Notes

• Shielding: As you go down the periodic table, the number of shells increases

which results in greater electron-electron repulsion.

o The more shells there are, the further from the nucleus the valence

electrons are.

o Therefore, more shielding means the electrons are _Less_ attracted

to the nucleus of the atom.

• Atomic Radius is defined as half the distance between adjacent nuclei of

the same element.

o As you move DOWN a group an entire energy level is added with

each new row, therefore the atomic radius __increases_(larger)_.

o As you move LEFT-TO-RIGHT across a period, a proton is added, so

the nucleus more strongly attracts the electrons of a atom, and

atomic radius __decreases (smaller)__.

• Ionic Radius is defined as half the distance between adjacent nuclei of the

same ion.

o For __cation____ an electron was lost and therefore the ionic radius

is smaller than the atomic radius.

o For __anion_____ an electron was gained and therefore the ionic

radius is larger than the atomic radius.

o As you move down a group an entire energy level is added, therefore

the ionic radius increases.

o As you move left-to-right across a period, a proton is added, so the

nucleus more strongly attracts the electrons of a atom, and ionic

radius ____decreases____.

� However! This occurs in 2 sections. The cations form the first group,

and the anions form the second group.

• Isoelectronic Ions: Ions of different elements that contain the same number of electrons.

• Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to __remove__ the first electron from

an atom.

o As you move down a group atomic size increases, allowing electrons to be further

from the nucleus, therefore the ionization energy ___decreases_____.

o As you move left-to-right across a period, the nuclear charge increases, making it

harder to remove an electron, thus the ionization energy ______increases_____.

• Electronegativity is defined as the relative ability of an atom to attract electrons in a

____electron cloud by the nucleus________________.

o As you move down a group atomic size increases, causing available electrons to be

further from the nucleus, therefore the electronegativity ______decreases_____.

o As you move left-to-right across a period, the nuclear charge increases, making it

easier to gain an electron, thus the electronegativity __________increases_______.

• Reactivity is defined as the ability for an atom to react/combine with other atoms.

o With reactivity we must look at the metals and non-metals as two separate groups.

• Metal Reactivity- metals want to lose electrons and become cations

o As you move down a group atomic size increases, causing valence electrons to be

further from the nucleus, therefore these electron are more easily lost and reactivity

___decreases_______.

o As you move left-to-right across a period, the nuclear charge increases, making it

harder to lose electrons, thus the reactivity __increases__.

• Non-metal Reactivity- non-metals want to gain electrons and become anions

o As you move down a group atomic size increases, making it more difficult to attract

electrons, therefore reactivity ____decrease_____.

o As you move left-to-right across a period, the nuclear charge increases, making it

easier to attract electrons, thus the reactivity __increases___.

Periodic Trends Worksheet

1. Explain why a magnesium atom is smaller than both sodium AND calcium. It is smaller than Na because it has more protons and smaller than Ca because is has less energy levels.

2. Would you expect a Cl- ion to be larger or smaller than a Mg2+ ion? Explain

You would expect Cl- to be larger because of the electron to proton ratio and Mg+2 now has the second energy level as its outer level.

3. Explain why the sulfide ions (S2-) is larger than a chloride ion (Cl-).

It is larger because of the electron to proton ratio. S-2 has two more electrons than protons and Cl- only has one more.

4. Compare the ionization energy of sodium to that of potassium and

EXPLAIN. It would require less ionization energy for K to loss an electron than Na. K has more energy levels and the valence electrons are further from the nucleus.

5. Explain the difference in ionization energy between lithium and beryllium.

They are the same energy level, but Be is slightly smaller so the valence electron are closer to the nucleus so it would have a higher ionization energy.

6. Order the following ions from largest to smallest: Ca2+, S2-, K+, Cl-. Explain

your order.

S2-, Cl-, K+, Ca2+ It is because of the electron to proton ratio.

7. Rank the following atoms/ions in each group in order of decreasing radii

and explain your ranking for each (larger to smaller).

a. I, I- I- , I

b. K, K+ K, K+

c. Al, Al3+ Al, Al3+

8. Which element would have the greatest electron affinity: B or O? Explain.

Hint: a positive electron affinity means that the element wants to form a

negative charge.

It would be O. Because O wants to gain two electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. While B wants to lose three electrons.
