Chemistry Chapter 6
Family Names
-Alkali metals (most reactive) -Alkaline earth metals -Halogens -Noble gases
Sodium
-Bluish-white, shiny metal -Unworkable -Can't be melted and isn't like other metals
Metals
-Higher melting & boiling points-mainly solids -Lustrous (shiny and smooth) -Good conductors of energy -Malleable (can be hammered into sheets) -Ductile (can be pulled or squeezed into wires)
Chlorine
-Highly reactive element -It undergoes reaction with a wide variety of elements and compounds -Gas -Greenish yellow -Very toxic -Suffocating smell
Non-Metals
-Lower melting & boiling points for all states of matter -Dull -Poor conductors of heat & electricity -Brittle (not malleable or ductile)
Sulfur

Uranium
-Silvery, shiny metal -Ductile -Malleable -Highly reactive
Osmium
-Silvery-white metal -Waxy -Soft enough to be cut by a knife -High reactivity
Barium
-Solid -Alkali Earth Metal -When pure, it is silvery white like lead -Never found free in nature, found only in combination with other elements because it reacts with Oxygen in the air
Calcium
-Solid -Hard -Silver/ White/ Gray -Burns in oxygen with strong heating -Reacts with dilute hydrochloride acid to give hydrogen -Reactions with dilute calcium and acids forms calcium chloride -Does not react in water
Ionization energy
-Within a family, the trend is decreasing (because less energy is required to remove electrons from the larger atoms) -Across a period, the trend is increasing (because more energy is required to overcome the stronger nuclear forces on electrons in the smaller atoms)
Electronegativity
-Within a family, the trend is decreasing (because weaker nuclear pull on electron in larger atoms making it difficult to attract other electrons in a chemical bond) -Across a period, the trend is increasing (because stronger nuclear pull on electron in smaller atoms makes it easier to attract other electrons in a chemical bond)
Electron affinity
-Within a family, the trend is decreasing (because weaker nuclear pull on electron in larger atoms making it difficult to attract other electrons) -Across a period, the trend is increasing (because stronger nuclear pull on electron in smaller atoms makes it easier to attract other electrons)
Atomic radius
-Within a family, the trend is increasing (because the valence shell is farther from the nucleus) -Across a period, the trend is decreasing (because its adding electrons to the valence shell)
Nitrogen
-colorless -odorless -tasteless -can also turn in to a liquid -Doesn't react with anything under normal conditions
Nickel
-silver color -magnetic metal -hard -malleable -ductile -conducts electricity -not very reactive
How many groups are there?
3; Metals, Non-Metals, & Metalloids
Where are the alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the halogens, and the noble gases located in the periodic table?
Alkali metals: Group 1A Alkaline earth metals: Group 2A Halogens: Group 7A Nobles Gases: Group 8A
Which of these metals isn't a transition metal? a. aluminum b. silver c. iron d. zirconium
Aluminum
How can you tell how many valence electrons there are for the elements
By the group number, except for transitional metals. With nonmetals, ignore the first number- ex: 17 -> 7 valence electrons
Columns #1-18
Families
Why does the ionic radius always become larger?
Filling energy levels increases the shielding effect.
Explain why fluorine has a smaller atomic radius than both oxygen and chlorine.
Fluorine is keeping it's electron very close to the nucleus. Making the atomic radius smaller. Atomic radius trend goes from left to right that atomic radius decreases. The atomic radius increases from top to bottom.

Getting smaller waist--> pull that belt tighter
Why does the ionic radius always become smaller?
Losing electrons could sometimes lose an energy level.
Mendeleev
Made the 1st useful periodic table by using atomic mass to place the elements horizontally & similar chemical reactivity to place them vertically
Halogen family
Most reactive nonmetal family
What element makes itself bigger than it is?
Na (sodium)
Anion
Negatively charged ion formed through the gaining of electrons. Always nonmetals.
John Newlands
Noticed that elements were arranged by increasing atomic mass, their properties repeated every eighth element; known as the Law of Octaves
Atomic Mass
Number of protons and neutrons in an atom
Atomic Number
Number of protons in an atom
Atomic radius
One-half the distance between the nuclei of identical atoms that are bonded together
Rows #1-7
Periods
Mosley
Placed the elements horizontally by atomic number & vertically by similar chemical reactivity
Cation
Positively charged ion formed through the loss of electrons. They are always metals.
Law of Octaves
The 1st and 8th elements had similar properties
Shielding effect
The effect of inner electrons in decreasing the nuclear charge experienced by outer electrons
Electronegativity
The element's atom ability to attract electrons in a chemical bond
Electron affinity
The energy change that occurs when are electron is added to an atom and an ion
Ionization energy
The energy required to remove an electron from an atom is in its ground state

Arsenic
• Two forms • Brittle, gray, metallic (stable) • Yellow, non-metallic solid (reactive) • Both are odorless, tasteless, solid at room temperature, and are hexagonal/rhombic crystals
Iodine
