PERIODICITY

Periodic law: The properties of the elements are periodic functions of their
atomic number.

Effective Nuclear Charge
Effective nuclear charge (Zeff) is the “positive charge” felt by an electron

Zeff  Z - σ 0  σ  Z (σ  shielding constant)

Zeff  Z – number of inner or core electrons

Z Core Z eff Radiuspm

Na 11 10 1 186

Mg 12 10 2 160

Al 13 10 3 143

Ion Size

Cation is always smaller than atom from which it is


formed.
Anion is always larger than atom from which it is formed.

2.Ionization Energy
Ionization energy is the minimum energy (kJ/mol) required
to remove an electron from a gaseous atom in its ground
state.

I1  X( g )  X( g )  e  I1 first ionization energy

I 2  X  ( g )  X2 ( g )  e  I 2 second ionization energy

I 3  X 2  ( g )  X3  ( g )  e  I3 third ionization energy

I1  I 2  I3

3. Electron Affinity
Electron affinity is the negative of the energy change that
occurs when an electron is accepted by an atom in the
gaseous state to form an anion.
