Q

Define Electronegativity

A

The ability of an atom to attract a pair of bonded electrons

22
Q

Electronegativity decreases down a group because

A

nuclear charge increases
increased shielding
large atomic radius due to increase in electron shell

23
Q

Electronegativity increased across a period because

A

Effective nuclear charge increases
Stronger attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons

24
Q

What decreases as you go down group 1

A

ionisation energy

25
Q

What increases as you go down group 1

A

reactivity
number of occupied energy levels

26
Q

What increases down group 17

A

number of occupied energy levels

27
Q

What decreases down group 17

A

electron affinity
reactivity

28
Q

Define first ionisation energy

A

minimum energy required to lose one mole of electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms to produce one mole of gaseous ions

29
Q

Explain why the first ionisation energy decreases down a group (3)

A

• Going down a group atomic radii increases and electrons occupy higher energy levels
• Electrons in higher energy levels have a weaker attraction to the nucleus.
• Less energy is required in order to remove an electron

30
Q

Explain why first ionisation energy increases across a period

A

Going across there are more protons in the nucleus and more electrons occupying the outermost energy level (effective nuclear charge)

• A greater number of electrons in the outermost energy level results in a stronger attraction to the nucleus

• More energy is required in order to remove an electron

31
Q

Atomic radius

A

Increases down a group
decreases across a period

32
Q

Define First Electron affinity

A

the amount of energy released when a neutral atom gains an electron to form a negatively charged ion

33
Q

Why does First electron affinity decrease down a group

A

The atomic radius becomes larger , the attraction for an additional electron is less , since the effective nuclear charge is reduce due to increased shielding

34
Q

Why does electron affinity increase across a period

A

Elements across a period have a higher effective nuclear charge.
Stronger attraction between the added electron and the nucleus

35
Q

What are the 6 characteristic properties of transition elements

A

• Variable oxidation states
• High melting points
• Magnetic properties
• Catalytic properties
• Formation of coloured compounds
• Formation of complex ions

36
Q

if the ionisation number is 2+ what its oxidation number

A

+2

37
Q

What is a transition element

A

element with a partially filled d-subshell

38
Q

what is effective nuclear charge

A

more electrons in shells

39
Q

What type of metals have low EA

A

metals

40
Q

What type of metals have a high EA

A

non-metals

41
Q

Why do metals have low electronegativities

A

because they lose electrons easily

42
Q

why do non-metals have high electronegativities

A

as they gain electrons to fill their outer shell

43
Q

What is the trend in melting points ?

A

Increase across a period until group 14 then decrease

44
Q

What is the trend in metallic character

A

Increases down a group
Decreases across a period
