Periodic Properties & Trends
• Electronegativity
– Ability of an atom to pull e- towards itself
– Increases going up and to the right
• Across a period more protons in nucleus
= more positive charge to pull electrons closer
• Down a group more electrons to hold onto
= element can’t pull e- as closely
Periodic Properties & Trends
• Atomic Radius
– Distance between the nucleus and the
furthest electron in the valence shell
• *Remember*
– LLLL Lower, Left, Large, Loose
Periodic Properties & Trends
• Ionization Energy
– Energy required to remove an e- from the
ground state
– 1st I.E. = removing 1 e-, easiest
– 2nd I.E. = removing 2 e-, more difficult
– 3rd I.E. = removing 3 e-, even more difficult
