QUESTION?
1. Why doyou think atoms gets smaller
across a period?
2. Why should metals lose electrons more
easily than non-metals?
3.What might happen to reactivity if an
atom holds it electrons?

Today’s lesson, youare able to:
Define atomic radius, ionization energy,
electronegativity, and metallic character;
and
Create graphs or diagrams that illustrate
periodic diagrams (e.g.,atomic radius vs,
atomic number)

Trends in thePeriodic Table
The arrangement of elements in the periodic table into groups and
periods with predictable properties allows us to assume certain
patterns in the electron configurations.
Other properties of elements follow predictable patterns in the
periodic table:
Atomic Radius
Ionization Energy
Metallic Character
Electronegativity

Atomic radiusis ½ the distance between the nuclei of 2

ATOMIC RADIUS
As youmove across the period you
gain electrons but you also gain
protons. More + protons hold their
electrons tighter
As you move down the group you gain
more electrons which are in electron
orbitals further from the nucleus. The
nucleus has less pull the further out you
move.
9.
IONIZATION ENERGY (IE)
Ionization Energy is the energy required to remove 1
electron from an atom. (Make a + ion)
Low IE – Easy to remove the electron
High IE – Hard to remove the electron
As you move DOWN a group ionization energy DECREASES
As you move LEFT to RIGHT across a period ionization
energy INCREASES
10.
IONIZATION ENERGY
Atoms onthe left of the periodic table
give up electrons easily to achieve a
more stable electron configuration.
The valence electrons in atoms lower in
the group experience less pull from the
+ protons in the nucleus and are easier
to remove.
Lower IE
Low IE
High IE
The Noble Gases have the
highest IE of all because they are
in the most stable configuration.
11.
ELECTRONEGATIVITY
Electronegativity isthe tendency of an atom to attract electrons in
a compound.
The higher the electronegativity, the more the atom is able to attract electrons to itself.
As you move DOWN a group Electronegativity DECREASES
As you move LEFT TO RIGHT across a period Electronegativity
INCREASES
12.
ELECTRONEGATIVITY
As you godown a group, electronegativity
decreases because the bonding pair of electrons is
increasingly distant from the attraction of the
nucleus.
Electronegativity increases across a period
because the number of charges on the
nucleus increases. That attracts the bonding
pair of electrons more strongly.
13.
METALLIC CHARACTER
Metalliccharacter is the tendency of an element to be
shiny, silver, malleable, ductile and to react to form
positive ions
As you move DOWN a group metallic character
INCREASES
As you move LEFT TO RIGHT across a period metallic
character DECREASES
GENERALIZE SOME POINTS
1. Why is it important to study periodic trends in
understanding how elements behave in chemical
reactions used in industries and daily life?
2.How does analysing periodic trends help scientist
design safer materials, such as non-reactive
containers or corrosion-resistant metals?
