Mendeleev’s Periodic Law
Arranged the 65 known elements by atomic mass and by recurrence of various physical and chemical properties.
The Periodic Table today is very similar but arranged according to atomic number (number of protons).
The arrangement led to families of elements with similar properties and at the time allowed for the prediction and properties of elements yet to be discovered.

Remember from Chapter 4- Quantum Numbers and Atomic Orbitals
An atomic orbital is specified by three quantum numbers.n the principal quantum number - a positive integer
l the angular momentum quantum number - an integer from 0 to n-1
ml the magnetic moment quantum number - an integer from -l to +l
The three quantum numbers are actually giving the energy of the electron in the orbital and a fourth q.n. is needed to describe a property of electrons called spin. The spin can be clockwise or counterclockwise.
The spin q.n., ms can be + ½ or - ½ .
The Pauli Exclusion Principle - No two electrons in the same atom can have the same four q.n. Since the first three q.n. define the orbital, this means only two electrons can be in the same orbital and they must have opposite spins.

Factors Affecting Atomic Orbital Energies
Additional electron in the same orbital (makes less stable)
An additional electron raises the orbital energy through electron-electron repulsions.
Additional electrons in inner orbitals (makes outer orbital less stable)
Inner electrons shield outer electrons more effectively than do electrons in the same sublevel.
Higher nuclear charge lowers orbital energy (stabilizes the system) by increasing nucleus-electron attractions.

(a) potassium (K: Z = 19) (b) molybdenum (Mo: Z = 42) (c) lead (Pb: Z = 82)

SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.3 Ranking Elements by Atomic Size
PLAN:
SOLUTION:
PROBLEM: Using only the periodic table (not Figure 8.15)m rank each set of main group elements in order of decreasing atomic size:
(a) Ca, Mg, Sr (b) K, Ga, Ca (c) Br, Rb, Kr (d) Sr, Ca, Rb
Elements in the same group decrease in size as you go up; elements decrease in size as you go across a period.
(a) Sr > Ca > Mg These elements are in Group 2A(2).
(b) K > Ca > Ga These elements are in Period 4.
(c) Rb > Br > Kr Rb has a higher energy level and is far to the left. Br is to the left of Kr.
(d) Rb > Sr > Ca Ca is one energy level smaller than Rb and Sr. Rb is to the left of Sr.

SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.4 Ranking Elements by First Ionization Energy
PLAN:
SOLUTION:
PROBLEM: Using the periodic table only, rank the elements in each of the following sets in order of decreasing IE1:
(a) Kr, He, Ar (b) Sb, Te, Sn (c) K, Ca, Rb (d) I, Xe, Cs
IE increases as you proceed up in a group; IE increases as you go across a period.
(a) He > Ar > Kr
(b) Te > Sb > Sn
(c) Ca > K > Rb
(d) Xe > I > Cs
Group 8A(18) - IE decreases down a group.
Period 5 elements - IE increases across a period.
Ca is to the right of K; Rb is below K.
I is to the left of Xe; Cs is further to the left and down one period.

SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.5 Identifying an Element from Successive Ionization Energies
PLAN:
SOLUTION:
PROBLEM: Name the Period 3 element with the following ionization energies (in kJ/mol) and write its electron configuration:
IE1 IE2 IE3 IE4 IE5 IE6
1012 1903 2910 4956 6278 22,230
Look for a large increase in energy which indicates that all of the valence electrons have been removed.
The largest increase occurs after IE5, that is, after the 5th valence electron has been removed. Five electrons would mean that the valence configuration is 3s23p3 and the element must be phosphorous, P (Z = 15).
The complete electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p3.

SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.6 Writing Electron Configurations of Main-Group Ions
PLAN:
SOLUTION:
PROBLEM: Using condensed electron configurations, write reactions for the formation of the common ions of the following elements:
(a) Iodine (Z = 53) (b) Potassium (Z = 19) (c) Indium (Z = 49)
Ions of elements in Groups 1A(1), 2A(2), 6A(16), and 7A(17) are usually isoelectronic with the nearest noble gas.
Metals in Groups 3A(13) to 5A(15) can lose their np or ns and np electrons.
(a) Iodine (Z = 53) is in Group 7A(17) and will gain one electron to be isoelectronic with Xe: I ([Kr]5s24d105p5) + e- I- ([Kr]5s24d105p6)
(b) Potassium (Z = 19) is in Group 1A(1) and will lose one electron to be isoelectronic with Ar: K ([Ar]4s1) K+ ([Ar]) + e-
(c) Indium (Z = 49) is in Group 3A(13) and can lose either one electron or three electrons: In ([Kr]5s24d105p1) In+ ([Kr]5s24d10) + e-

Magnetic Properties of Transition Metal Ions
A species with unpaired electrons exhibits paramagnetism. It is attracted by an external magnetic field.
Species with all paired e’s, not attracted........diamagnetic

SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.7 Writing Electron Configurations and Predicting Magnetic Behavior of Transition Metal Ions
PLAN:
SOLUTION:
PROBLEM: Use condensed electron configurations to write the reaction for the formation of each transition metal ion, and predict whether the ion is paramagnetic.
(a) Mn2+(Z = 25) (b) Cr3+(Z = 24) (c) Hg2+(Z = 80)
Write the electron configuration and remove electrons starting with ns to match the charge on the ion. If the remaining configuration has unpaired electrons, it is paramagnetic.
paramagnetic(a) Mn2+(Z = 25) Mn([Ar]4s23d5) Mn2+ ([Ar] 3d5) + 2e-
(b) Cr3+(Z = 24) Cr([Ar]4s23d6) Cr3+ ([Ar] 3d5) + 3e- paramagnetic
(c) Hg2+(Z = 80) Hg([Xe]6s24f145d10) Hg2+ ([Xe] 4f145d10) + 2e-
not paramagnetic (is diamagnetic)

SAMPLE PROBLEM 8.8 Ranking Ions by Size
PLAN:
SOLUTION:
PROBLEM: Rank each set of ions in order of decreasing size, and explain your ranking:
(a) Ca2+, Sr2+, Mg2+ (b) K+, S2-, Cl - (c) Au+, Au3+
Compare positions in the periodic table, formation of positive and negative ions and changes in size due to gain or loss of electrons.
(a) Sr2+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+
(b) S2- > Cl - > K+
These are members of the same Group (2A/2) and therefore decrease in size going up the group.
The ions are isoelectronic; S2- has the smallest Zeff and therefore is the largest while K+ is a cation with a large Zeff and is the smallest.
(c) Au+ > Au3+ The higher the + charge, the smaller the ion.
