Atom, Cation, and Anion Cation Positively charged Smaller than the Parent Atom Anion Atom Negatively charged Bigger than the Parent Atom Periodic Trend in Ionic Radii: The Group Ionic radius increases as we move down the group. The reasons for this trend are: (1) Number of shells increases; (2) Shielding also increases Periodic Trend in Ionic Radii: The Period Ionic radius decreases as we move from Left to Right in a Period. The reasons for this trend is: electrons are added to the same shell; therefore, nucleus attracts them continuously. Shielding of the Valence Electron by the Inner Electrons The shielding effect is the reduction in the effective nuclear charge on the outer electrons, due to the inner electrons. It is also referred to as the screening effect (or) atomic shielding. The shielding effect also explains why valence-shell electrons are more easily removed from the atom. The plot of atomic number versus atomic radius gives a measure of the shielding effect. The Shielding Effect can be defined as: Diminishing of the force or the control of the nucleus on outer electrons by the inner electrons, which act as a curtain between the nucleus and the outer electrons. Shielding Effect and Effective Nuclear Charge Slater’s Rule The effective nuclear charge is the net positive charge experienced by valence electrons. It can be given approximated by the equation: Zeff = Z – S, where Z is the atomic number and S is the number of shielding electrons. 1. Calculate Z eff for a valence electron in an oxygen atom. 2. 2.

Ionic Radius is the distance between the center of the nucleus and the valence shell. In both graphs, we see that there is decrease in ionic radius with atomic number. The left graph is for Lanthanides, which are “f” block elements. The right graph is for fourth period elements, which include Calcium (which is a “s” block element) and Sc through Zn (which are “d” block elements called Transition Elements). For the lanthanides, there is a dramatic fall in the ionic radius whereas for the fourth period elements, the decrease is not steep. The steep decrease for lanthanides is due to lanthanide contraction, which is reduction in the size of lanthanide ions. In lanthanides, electrons are continuously added to the “4f” orbitals, which are in the 4th shell much inner to the valence shell, which is the 6th shell. For the fourth period elements, there is only a small fall in the ionic radius, this is because after Calcium, electrons are added to the “3d” orbitals, which are in the 3rd shell just inner to the valence shell, which is the 6th shell. https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3817571 A is the correct answer as anion is bigger than the cation and more the charge, the smaller is the cation and the bigger is the anion. Write the possible isoelectronic ISOLECTRONIC SPECIES species for Helium H─ Li+ Be2+ Isoelectronic species are atoms or cation, and anion which have the same number of electrons. Write the possible isoelectronic species for Krypton Se 2─ Br─ Rb+ Sr2+ Note: For the Noble Gas, take two elements prior to it and two elements after. The prior elements are nonmetals add the correct number of electrons and convert them into anions. The later elements are metals, remove the correct number of electrons and convert them into cations. Ionic radius decrease across periods because effective nuclear charge increases. That is, the net positive charge experienced by an electron in the ion increases as a result of the number of protons in the nucleus increasing. IONIZATION ENERGY Ionization Energy in general is the energy that must be supplied to an atom to form cations. Ionization Energy can be First Ionization Energy or Second Ionization Energy or Third Ionization Energy corresponding successively to the formation of Unipositive Cation from atom; Dipositive cation from Unipositive Cation; and Tripositive cation from Dipositive cation.

  • Effective Nuclear Charge
    Effective Nuclear Charge : The effective nuclear charge is the net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom. The term "effective" is used because the shielding effect of negatively charged electrons prevents higher orbital electrons from experiencing the full nuclear charge by the repelling effect of inner-layer electrons. The effective nuclear charge experienced by the outer shell electron is also called the core charge. It is possible to determine the strength of the nuclear charge by looking at the oxidation number of the atom. 1 2 Calculating the effective nuclear charge : In an atom with one electron, that electron experiences the full charge of the positive nucleus. In this case, the effective nuclear charge can be calculated from Coulomb's law. However, in an atom with many electrons the outer electrons are simultaneously attracted to the positive nucleus and repelled by the negatively charged electrons. The effective nuclear charge on such an electron is given by the following equation: Zeff = Z − S where Z is the number of protons in the nucleus (atomic number), and S is the average number of electrons between the nucleus and the electron in question (the number of nonvalence electrons). S can be found by the systematic application of various rule sets, the simplest of which is known as "Slater's rules". Note: Zeff is also often written Z*. 3 Values Shielding effect : The shielding effect describes the decrease in attraction between an electron and the nucleus in any atom with more than one electron shell. It is also referred to as the screening effect or atomic shielding.

  • Summary of Properties of Elements in the Periodic Table
    An Overview of The Properties of Elements in The Periodic Table The Key Atomic Properties Atomic properties that are critical to the behavior of elements are electron configuration, atomic size, ionization energy, electron affinity, and electronegativity. The electron configuration (nl#: spdf notation) gives the distribution of electrons in principal energy levels and sublevels of an atom. The principal quantum number n determines the energy and relative distance of orbitals from the nucleus; The quantum number l yields s, p, d, and f notations, which describes the shape of orbitals in the sublevel; The superscript (#) tells the number of electrons in the sublevels. Electrons in inner levels or shells tend to shield outer electrons from the full nuclear charge, which is reduced to effective nuclear charge (Zeff). Electrons that have a greater penetration shield others more effectively. For example, electrons in level n = 1 shield those in level n = 2 very effectively, and those in n = 1 and n = 2 shield electrons in level n = 3. Electrons at the same level, but in different sublevels, also shield other electrons to some extent. The extent of penetration and shielding effect is in the order: s > p > d > f. The effective nuclear charge (Zeff) greatly influences atomic properties. In general, Zeff increases significantly across a period (left-to-right) Zeff decreases slightly down a group. In the periodic table, elements are divided into: the s-block (contains reactive metals of Group 1A (1) and 2A (2)), the p-block (contains metals and nonmetals of Group 3A (13) through 8A (18)), the d-block (contains transition metals (Group 3B (3) through Group (2B (12)), and the f-block (contains lanthanide and actinide series or inner transition metals).

  • Shielding Effect
    Shielding effect Effective nuclear charge, Zeff, experienced by an electron is less than the actual nuclear charge, Z Electrons in the outermost shell are repelled (shielded) by electrons in the inner shells.

  • UNIT - II PERIODIC PROPERTIES by Dr
    B.Sc. (Semester-I) General Chemistry – I (US01CCHE21) UNIT - II PERIODIC PROPERTIES By Dr. K. D. Patel Brief Introduction of Periodic Table: Mendeleeff's Periodic Law and Periodic Table: “The properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic weight”. That is if elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic weight, the properties of elements repeated after definite regular intervals or period. Mendeleeff arranged the elements in the increasing order of their atomic weights, in the form of a table, which is known as Mendeleeff's Periodic Table. In this the elements are arranged in groups (or columns) and periods (or rows). Defects of Mendeleeff's Periodic Table (1) Anomalous position of hydrogen: Mendeleeff has placed hydrogen in group IA, alongwith alkali metals, but at the same time, hydrogen also resembles halogens. Thus, the position of hydrogen is still a matter of dispute. (2) Similar pairs of elements, placed in different groups, while dissimilar elements placed in the same group: Many pairs of elements, which have similar properties with each other, have been placed in different groups. Examples are: Cu (IB)-Hg (IIB), Ag (IB-TI(IIIA), Ba (IIA)-Pb (IVA) etc. Many elements, which have dissimilar properties have been placed in the same group, e.g., coinage metals (IB: Cu, Ag and Au) have been placed along with alkali metals (IA). Similarly, Mn (VIIB) has been placed with halogens (VIIA). (3) Position of lanthanides and actinides: Lanthanides and actinides elements have not been placed in the main body of the Periodic Table. Rather these have been given a separate place at the bottom of the Periodic Table.

  • Periodic Table Tendencies
    PERIODIC TABLE TENDENCIES I. Effective Nuclear Charge. A. Effective nuclear charge – the attractive positive charge of nuclear protons acting on valence electrons. 1. The effective nuclear charge is always less than the total number of protons present in a nucleus due to shielding effect. 2. Effective nuclear charge is behind all other periodic table tendencies. B. Shielding effect – the lessening of attractive electrostatic charge difference between nuclear protons and valence electrons by partially or fully filled inner shells. 1. Shielding effect increases with the number of inner shells of electrons. 2. Electrons sharing the same shell do not shield one another from the attractive pull of the nucleus. C. An estimate of effective nuclear charge can be obtained from Zeff = Z − S, where Zeff = effective nuclear charge, Z = atomic number, and, S = the screening constant. 1. The screening constant can be estimated by setting it equal to the number of core electrons present in an atom. 2. It is often used as a measure of the shielding effect present in an atom. 3. Consider aluminum… [Ne]3s23p1 Z = 13 S = 10 Zeff = Z − S = 13 – 10 = 3+ 4. Don’t forget that Zeff is only an estimate. Actual shielding effect is always greater that the screening constant S because core electrons are much closer to the nucleus than are valence electrons. D. The periodic table tendency for effective nuclear charge: 1. Increase across a period (due to increasing nuclear charge with no accompanying increase in shielding effect). 2. Decrease down a group (although nuclear charge increases down a group, shielding effect more than counters its effect).
