HIGHER CHEMISTRY REVISION.
Unit 1:- Patterns in the Periodic Table
1. The three statements below are taken from a note made by a student studying
trends in the Periodic Table.
1. First Ionisation Energy
The energy required to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of
atoms in the gaseous state.
2. Second Ionisation Energy
The energy required to remove a second mole of electrons .
3. .....................................................
The measure of the attraction an atom has for the shared electrons in a bond.
(a) Complete the note above to give the heading for the third statement.
(b) What is the trend in the first ionisation energy across a period from left to right.
(c) Why is the second ionisation energy of sodium so much greater than its first
ionisation energy?
(a) Electronegativity.
(b) Increases from left to
right.
(c) After 1st electron removed the next electron has to be taken from energy level below it, closer to nucleus. As the 2nd electron comes from energy level closer to the nucleus it is more firmly attracted to the nucleus.
2. On crossing the Periodic Table, there are trends in the sizes of atoms and
ions.
(a) Why is the atomic size of chlorine less than that of sodium?
(b) Ion Ionic radius / pm
Si4+ 42
P3- 198
Why is there a large increase in ionic radius on going from Si4+ + to P3-?(a) Chlorine has a larger nuclear charge (17 protons) than sodium
(11 protons). Both atoms have 3 occupied electron energy levels.
The electrons are attracted more by the larger charge in the
chlorine nucleus and so are brought closer to the nucleus.
(b) Si4+ has an electron arrangement of 2,8 – two occupied electron
energy levels. P3- has electron arrangement of 2,8,8 – three
occupied electron energy levels. The third energy level is further
from the nucleus.
3. Ionisation energies provide information about the structure of atoms.
Write the equation, showing state symbols, for the first ionisation
energy of sodium.
