PERIODIC TABLE AND ITS PROPERTIES (2)

Periodic Table: A tabular chart representing systematic arrangement of elements in groups and periods, in the order of their increasing atomic numbers is called periodic table.

Modern Periodic Law:  The physical and the chemical properties of all elements are the periodic function of their atomic numbers.

Periodicity of Elements: The phenomena due to which elements repeat their properties at regular intervals in a periodic table is called periodicity of elements.

Group:  The arrangement of elements in the vertical columns of the periodic table, such that all the elements in it have similar but graded chemical properties is called group.

Period: The arrangement of elements in the horizontal row in the order of their increasing atomic numbers , such that the properties of elements gradually changes from metallic to non-metallic is called period.

Periodic properties: Metallic and non-metallic character, atomic size, ionization potential, electron affinity , and electronegativity are called periodic properties.

Main points of long form of (Modern) Periodic Table):
i) There are 7 horizontal rows, called periods.

ii) There are 18 vertical columns called groups.

iii) The elements occuping left and right wings of vertical column are called normals or representative elements.

iv) The strongly metallic occupy groups I (1A) and 2(IIA) on the extreme left of the periodic table.

v) The strongly non-metallic elements are placed in groups 16(VIA) and 17(VIIA) on the right hand side of periodic table.

vi) The transition elements are accomodate in the middle of the periodic table in 3 rows. They belong to groups 3(IIB) to 12(IIB).

vii) Noble gases (rare gases) are placed in the zero group at the end of the periodic table.

viii) The rare earths (lanthanides) and radioactive elements are kept outside the periodic table to mark their peculiar properties.

Ionization Energy: The energy required to remove one electron from an isolated gaseous atom, theerrby converting it into positively charged ion is called ionization energy or ionization potential.

Electronegativity: The property of an atom to attract electrons to itself , when combined to form a compound is called electronegativity.

Electron affinity: The amount of energy released by an isolated gaseous atom of an element in its lowest state of energy, by accepting on electron to form an ion is called electron affinity.

Characteristics of a group while moving down in a group from top to bottom:

i) The number of electron shells increases by one at each step, such that total number of electron shells in each element represents the period to which the element belongs. For example, if there are three electron shells around the nucleus of an element X , then X belongs to the third period of the periodic table.

ii) The number of valence electrons (electrons in the outermost shell) of each element in a group remains the same.

iii) All the elements in a group have the same valency. The valency is equal to the number of electrons in the valency shell, when compared with oxygen . However, if the valency is compared with hydrogen, then valency is equal to the number of valence electrons for a groups 1(IA) to 13(III A). For the elements of group 14(IVA) to group 17(VIIA) the valency with respect to hydrogen is (valence electrons  - 8) and is negative. The valency of zero group element is zero.

iv) The atomic radius increases as one moves down in a group.

v) The nuclear charge(no. of protons) increases as one moves down a group.

vi) a) The metallic character of the elements from 1(IA) to group 13(III A) increases as one moves down a group.
   b) The non metallic character of non metallic elements in group 14(IV A) to 17(VIIA), gradually decreases as one moves down the group.
  
vii) a) The chemical reactivity of elements in groups 1(IA) to 13(III A) increases as one moves down a group.
    b) The chemical reactivity of elements in group 14(IVA) to 17(VIIA) decreases as one moves down a group.

viii)a) The melting points of elements in groups 1(IA) to 13(III A) decrease as one moves down a group.
   b) The melting points of elements in groups 14(IVA) to 17(VIIA) increase as one moves down a group.

ix) The ionization potential decreases as one move down a group.

x) The electronegativity decreases as one moves down a group.

xi) The electron affinity decreases as one moves down a group.

Characteristics of Periods in the Modern Periodic Table :
a) First period: It has only two elements (hydrogen and helium). It is called very short period.

b) Second and third periods: Both of these periods consists of 8 elements. They are called short periods.

c) Fourth and fifth periods: Both of these periods consists of 18 elements. They are called long periods.

d) Sixth period: It consists of 32 elements. It is called very long period.

e) Seventh period: It is an incomplete period which should have 32 elements. However, so far it has 26 elements. It is also called very long period.

While moving from left to right in a period:
a)  The number of electron shells around the nucleus remain the same.

b) The number of electron shells corresponds to the number of period to which the elements belongs.

c) The number of valence electrons increases from 1 to 8 (except in the first group where maximum number of electrons are 2).

d) The valency of an element with respect to oxygen corresponds to the number of electrons in the valence shell. When the valence electrons are 8 (or 2 in the case of helium ), the valency is considered as zero.

e) The atomic size gradually decreases.

f) The nuclear charge gradually increases.

g) The characteristics of an element changes from metallic to non metallic, till at the end of the period, the element is a noble gas.

h) The ionization potential gradually increases.
i) The electron affinity gradually increases.

j) The electronegativity gradually increase.
