Where are metals located in the periodic table?
On the left side and center.
Where are non-metals located in the periodic table?
On the right side.
Where are metalloids located?
Along the staircase line between metals and non-metals.
How do you write electron configurations up to Z = 36?
By filling orbitals in the order: 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p.
What are alkali metals?
Group 1 elements like Li, Na, K.
What are halogens?
Group 17 elements like F, Cl, Br.
What are noble gases?
Group 18 elements like He, Ne, Ar.
What are transition elements?
D-block elements from Sc to Zn.
What is periodicity?
The repeating pattern of chemical and physical properties across periods.
What is the trend in atomic radius across a period?
Decreases from left to right.
What is the trend in atomic radius down a group?
Increases due to more electron shells.
What is the trend in ionic radius across a period?
Cations decrease, then anions increase, then decrease again.
What is the trend in ionization energy across a period?
Increases across a period due to greater nuclear charge.
What is the trend in ionization energy down a group?
Decreases due to increased shielding.
What is the trend in electron affinity across a period?
Generally becomes more negative (more exothermic).
What is the trend in electronegativity across a period?
Increases from left to right.
What is the trend in electronegativity down a group?
Decreases due to increased atomic size.
How do Group 1 metals react with water?
Form a metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
What is the general equation for Group 1 metal with water?
2M + 2H2O → 2MOH + H2
How do halogens react with halide ions?
A more reactive halogen displaces a less reactive halide ion.
What is the trend in Group 1 metal reactivity?
Increases down the group.
What is the trend in Group 17 halogen reactivity?
Decreases down the group.
What is the reaction of Group 1 oxides with water?
Form a metal hydroxide solution.
What is the reaction of carbon with oxygen?
C + O2 → CO2
