3.1(a): Period, group and block
Periodic Table:
• A table that arrange all the known elements in
order of increasing proton number.
4
Group
•18 vertical columns
•Elements in the same group have
- same number of valence electron
- similar chemical properties.
Example:
Oxygen & sulfur are both found in group 16, which
means that both of them have 6 valence electrons .
5
For element in block s and d,
Group number = number of valence
electron

Main groups in periodic table:

Example: 1
a) H & He are in Period 1 because their principal
quantum number of the valence electron shell is 1.
H : 1s1
He: 1s2
Na : 1s22s22p63s1
Cl : 1s22s22p63s23p5 9
Block
•4 main blocks according to the valence/outermost
ground state electron configuration.

i) s block
•Group 1 and 2
•Half-filled or completely filled outermost s orbital

3.2 PERIODICITY
At the end of this topic students should be able to:
a) Explain the variation in atomic radii
i. across periods 2 and 3
ii. across the first row of transition elements.
iii. down a group.
24
g) Define the first and second ionisation energies.
25
k) Define electronegativity.
26
3.2 (a) Variation in atomic radii
• The size /radius of atom is difficult to be defined
exactly because the electron cloud has no clear
boundary.
28
Factors that affect the atomic radii
29
i) Effective nuclear charge
• The nuclear charge that actually ‘felt’ by an electron
because of the nucleus attraction.
• Value of effective nuclear charge
Zeff = z – s
Where,
z = no. of proton
s = no. of electrons filled at the inner orbital
13Al
1s22s22p63s23p1 13-10=3
31
(ii) Value of the principal quantum number of
the valence electrons
***Screening effect:
- The electrons in inner shells shield the electrons in
outer shells from the nuclear charge.

3.2 (d) Isoelectronic
Definition:
•Isoelectronic series are groups of atoms and ions
which have the same electronic configuration (same
number of electrons).
P3- >S2- > Cl- > Na+ > Mg2+ > Al3+ > Si4+
P3-
S2-
Na+ Cl-
Mg2+
Ionic radii (nm)
Al3+
Si4+
36
No. of proton
• Across the period, sizes of cations and anions decrease due
to the increase of effective nuclear charge.
39
40
Cations
• When electrons are removed from the valence shell,
the electron-electron repulsions decrease and the
remaining electrons are pulled closer together around
the nucleus.
• Therefore, cations are smaller than the atoms from
which they are formed.
Anions
• When electrons are added to an atom, the mutual
repulsions between them increase. The electrons are
pushed apart and occupy a larger volume.
• Therefore, anions are larger than the atoms from which
they are formed. 41
• Cation is always smaller than atom from which it is
formed.
Definition:
•First ionisation energy (IE1) is the energy required for
the removal of one mole electron from one mole of
neutral, gaseous atom:
X (g) X+(g) + e- ∆H = first ionisation energy
47
(i) Atomic radius/size of atom
49
(iii) Screening Effect
• The screening effect (shielding effect) of the electrons
of the inner orbitals causes the outer electrons to be
less attracted to the nucleus and thus, decrease the
magnitude of ionisation energy.
50
3.2 (h) and (i) Variations in First Ionisation
Energies
51
a) Ionisation Energy Across a Period
• There is a gradual overall increase in ionisation
energy as we move across a period, although the
variation is irregular.
52

Anomalous cases
(i) The irregularity between groups 2 and 13:
• Electronic configuration of
Be : 1s22s2 (completely filled s orbital)
B : 1s22s22p1 (partially filled p orbital)
56
• Completely filled orbital is more stable than partially
filled orbital
57
(ii) The irregularity between groups 15 and 16:
• Electronic configuration:
N : 1s22s22p3 ( half filled p orbital)
O : 1s22s22p4 ( partially filled p orbital)
58
• Half filled p orbital is more stable than partially filled
p orbital
59
b) Ionisation Energy Down Within Group

first ionisation energy:

3.2 (j) Electronic configuration of an element and its
position in the Periodic Table based on successive
ionisation energy data
• Generally, successive ionisation energy increase
because electron is being pulled away from an
increasingly more positive ion, and that requires more
work.
• A large increase in successive ionisation energy
occurs between the removal of the last valence
electron and the removal of the first inner shell
electron.
