Unit 3, Lesson 2 of 3 Name: Date: Periodic Table Trends OBJECTIVE: After this lesson, I will understand the basic trends found in the Periodic Table, and I will understand how the trends relate to specific elements. Recall that elements from the same Group will have similar qualities, such as their basic classification. Today we will see that there are other trends that run throughout the Table and once again, elements from the same Group have similar: Atomic Radii sizes, Ionization Energies, and Electron Affinities. These trends are largely responsible for the element interactions that lead to the formation of bonds and compounds. Atomic Radius: The trends and resulting properties of specific elements can often be related back to the nucleus. Recall that there is an attraction between the electrons in the orbitals and the protons in the nucleus. The force or power of attraction between an electron and the nucleus is dependent on the magnitude of the net nuclear charge acting on the electron and the average distance between the nucleus and the electron. The force of attraction increases as the nuclear charge increases and decreases as the electron moves farther from the nucleus. Effective Nuclear Charge: Unit 3, Lesson 2 of 3 Ionization Energy: Blips/Exceptions: Electron Affinity: Blips/Exceptions: Electron Affinity vs. Electronegativity While often used interchangeably, electron affinity and electronegativity are not the same. Electron affinity refers to an atom’s attraction for an electron, while electronegativity refers to an atom’s attraction for an electron in the context of a bond. We will talk extensively about electronegativity in Unit 4. Unit 3, Lesson 2 of 3 Metallic Character: Summary of Periodic Trends Unit 3, Lesson 2 of 3 Practice Problems 1.
