The Periodic Table EXPLAINED | Chemical Families and Periodic Trends

One way to measure ionization energies is ultraviolet photoelectron
spectroscopy (PES), a technique based on the
photoelectric effect. (Section 6.2) In PES, monochromatic
light is directed onto a sample, causing electrons to
be emitted. The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is
measured. The difference between the energy of the photons
and the kinetic energy of the electrons corresponds to the
energy needed to remove the electrons (that is, the ionization
energy). Suppose that a PES experiment is performed
in which mercury vapor is irradiated with ultraviolet light
of wavelength 58.4 nm. (d) Using Figure 7.10, determine which of the halogen 
elements has a first ionization energy closest to that 
of mercury.

The ionization energy of an atom can be measured by photo-electron spectroscopy, in which light of wavelength l is directed at an atom, causing an electron to be ejected. The kinetic energy of the ejected electron 1EK2 is measured by determining its velocity, v since EK = 1/2 mv2. The Ei is then calculated using the relationship that the energy of the inci-dent light equals the sum of Ei plus EK. 
(a) What is the ionization energy of rubidium atoms in kilo-joules per mole if light with l = 58.4 nm produces elec-trons with a velocity of 2.450 * 106m/s? (The mass of an electron is 9.109 * 10-31 kg.)

Rank the following elements in order of increasing ionization energy:Br, F, Ga, K and Se.

Which of the following has the highest ionization energy?&nbsp;

Trends in the Periodic Table

It is possible to define metallic character as we do in this book
and base it on the reactivity of the element and the ease with
which it loses electrons. Alternatively, one could measure
how well electricity is conducted by each of the elements to
determine how “metallic” the elements are. On the basis of
conductivity, there is not much of a trend in the periodic table:
Silver is the most conductive metal, and manganese the
least. Look up the first ionization energies of silver and manganese;
which of these two elements would you call more
metallic based on the way we define it in this book?

Which of the following chemical equations is connected to
the definitions of (a) the first ionization energy of oxygen
(i) O1g2 + e-¡O-1g2 (ii) O1g2¡O+1g2 + e-
(iii) O1g2 + 2 e-¡O2-1g2 (iv) O1g2¡O2+1g2 + 2 e-
(v) O+1g2¡O2+1g2 + e-

Choose the element with the higher first ionization energy 
from each pair. 
a. Br or Bi

The first ionization energy of the oxygen molecule is the energy
required for the following process:
O21g2¡O2 +1g2 + e-
The energy needed for this process is 1175 kJ>mol, very similar
to the first ionization energy of Xe. Would you expect O2 to react
with F2? If so, suggest a product or products of this reaction.

Consider the electronic structure of the element bismuth.
(d) Would you expect element 115 to have an ionization ene-rgy greater than, equal to, or less than that of bismuth? Explain.

IE4 = 11,600 kJ>mol 
To which third-period element do these ionization values belong?

(b) Which element in
the periodic table has the largest ionization energy? Which
has the smallest?

Periodic Trend: Ionization Energy Example 1

When in same period, Group 3A elements have lower IE&nbsp;than Group 2A elements due to s subshell orbitals being more stable when totally filled.

When in same period, Group 6A elements have lower IE than Group 5A elements due to p subshell orbitals being more stable half-filled or totally filled.

 Removal of the second electron from P does not involve a core electron. 

 Removal of the second electron from Si does not involve a core electron. 

 Removal of the second electron from Al does not involve a core electron. 

 Removal of the second electron from Mg does not involve a core electron. 

 Correct, removing the second electron from Na involves breaking into a noble gas core electron configuration. 

 The removal of a core electron requires a very large input of energy.

Periodic Trends: Ionization Energy

Modern Atomic Theory: Ionization Energy

 Correct, since Si is closer to the lower left-side of the periodic table, it has the lowest ionization energy in this series. 

 In determining the order of this series, the alkaline earth metals will have higher values than the corresponding alkali metals. 

 Ionization energy increases as you move across a period from left to right and decreases down a group of the periodic table. 

 Which of the following lists the atoms in order of increasing ionization energy (smallest to largest)? 

Mercury in the environment can exist in oxidation states 0,
+1, and +2. One major question in environmental chemistry
research is how to best measure the oxidation state of mercury
in natural systems; this is made more complicated by the
fact that mercury can be reduced or oxidized on surfaces differently
than it would be if it were free in solution. XPS, X-ray
photoelectron spectroscopy, is a technique related to PES (see
Exercise 7.111), but instead of using ultraviolet light to eject valence
electrons, X rays are used to eject core electrons. The energies
of the core electrons are different for different oxidation
states of the element. In one set of experiments, researchers
examined mercury contamination of minerals in water. They
measured the XPS signals that corresponded to electrons ejected
from mercury’s 4f orbitals at 105 eV, from an X-ray source
that provided 1253.6 eV of energy 11 ev = 1.602 * 10-19J2.
The oxygen on the mineral surface gave emitted electron energies
at 531 eV, corresponding to the 1s orbital of oxygen.
Overall the researchers concluded that oxidation states were
+2 for Hg and -2 for O. (b) Compare the energies of
the 4f electrons in mercury and the 1s electrons in oxygen
from these data to the first ionization energies of mercury
and oxygen from the data in this chapter.

Periodic Trend: Cumulative

Periodic Trends are patterns present in the periodic table based on an element's size and electron distribution.&nbsp;

Periodic Trend: Ionic Radius

Ionic Radius is the distance between an ion's nucleus and its most outer occupied electron shell.&nbsp;

The Electron Configuration

The electron configuration of an element is the distribution of its electrons within atomic orbitals.&nbsp;

The Electron Configuration: Ions

The Electron Configuration of Ions involves either adding or removing electrons from a given orbital of an element.

Periodic Trend: Successive Ionization Energies

Successive Ionization Energies deals with the removal of multiple electrons from a gaseous atom or ion through multiple steps.

Periodic Trend: Atomic Radius

The atomic radius of an element is the distance from its nucleus to its outer electron shell.
