Arrangement of elements
• increasing atomic number • periods • groups
Periodicity
• repeating patterns • in physical or chemical properties • across different periods
Atomic radius across a period
• decreases • charge of nucleus increases • shielding stays the same • increased attraction to valence electron
Atomic radius down a group
• increases • increase shielding • increase nuclear charge
Electrical conductivity from group 1-3
• have increased number of electrons in outer shell • more are delocalised • more mobile charge carriers
First ionisation energy
energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mol of gaseous atoms to form 1 mol of gaseous 1+ ions
1st IE down a group
• decreases • increased shielding • increased atomic radius • increased nuclear charge is outweighed
1st IE across a period
• increases • atomic shielding decreases • increased nuclear charge • shielding remains the same • decreases g3 and g6
1st IE group 3
• s electrons provide additional shielding • valence electron more readily lost • IE decreases
1st IE group 6
• repulsion between 2 pair of p electrons • electron more readily lost • IE decreases
Successive IE
• increases • electrons removed from increasingly positive ion • big jumps in IE when electron is removed from shell closer to nucleus
