Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
What two things determine the sizes of ions and atoms?
- Electronic configuration
- Interactions between the nucelus and the electrons
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
Principles pertaining to the forces of attraction or repulsion in charged species
Electrostatic Principles
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
What is the first electrostatic principle?
- Oppositely charged particles attract each other
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
What is the second electrostatic principle?
- Like-charged particles repel each other
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
What is the third electrostatic principle?
- As charges increase, so does the attraction or repulsion
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
What is the fourth electrostatic principle?
- As two charged bodies get closer together, the force of attraction or repulsion gets stronger.
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
In an atom or ion with multiple electrons there are both _ between the negatively charged electrons and _ forces between the electrons and the positively charged protons in the nucleus.
- Repulsions
- Attractive
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
The net positive charge from the nucleus that a valence electron experiences.
Effective nuclear charge (Zeff)
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
The effective nuclear charge is (higher/lower) than the actual nuclear charge, Z.
Lower
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
Effective nuclear charge equation
Zeff=Z-S
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
A set of rules that provides a numerical value for the shielding constant S when calculating effective nuclear charge
Slater’s Rules
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
Is the particular electron included in the calculation of the shielding constant?
No
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
What does S represent?
Shielding constant
Reading 3.9: Atomic and Ionic Sizes
How do you calculate the shielding constant?
- For a given valence electron, electrons in the same principal quantum number orbital each contribute a value of 0.35 toward the value
- Electrons in shells with lower n values each contribute a value of 0.85
- Add the two together
