New cards
trend of atomic radius
decreases across a period and increases down a group
2
New cards
trend of ionization energy
decreases down a group (easier to remove electrons as you go down), increases across a period from left to right (harder to remove electrons as you move right).
inverse of atomic radius
3
New cards
How do the size of cations compare to the atoms from which they are formed?
Smaller; the more positive the ionic charge the smaller the radius
4
New cards
How do the size of anions compare to the atoms from which they are formed?
Larger; the more negative the charge the larger the radius
5
New cards
What are exceptions to the ionization energy trend?
Based on screening and penetration
ex) Al IE smaller than Mg;S lower than P
6
New cards
What is the trend for electron affinity?
increases across a period, decreases down a group
7
New cards
Diamagnetic
all electrons paired
weakly repelled by magnetic field
8
New cards
paramagnetic
Atom or substance containing unpaired electrons and is consequently attracted by a magnet.
9
New cards
Polarizability
measure of the ability of a charge to distort a molecule's charge distribution (electron cloud)
10
New cards
What is the periodic trend for polarizability
Increases with atomic radius
11
New cards
Polar covalent bond
electrons not shared equally and displaced toward more nonmetallic element
12
New cards
Electrostatic potential
work done in moving a uit of positive charge at a constant speed from one reigon of a molecule to the other
13
New cards
How can an electrostatic potential map be used?
gives info about distribution of electron charge
help determine polarity/nonpolarity
14
New cards
is this ionic or covalent
ionic
15
New cards
What is the trend for electronegativity?
It increases across a period and decreases down a group.
