18 views2 pages

Document Summary

Ionization energy: energy required to remove an electron from a gas phase atom or ion in its ground state configuration. Electron affinity ( ): the energy released when an electron is added to a gaseous atom to form an anion. (noble gases are excluded) Atomic radius (r): as z* increases, the attraction of the nucleus increases and the electron cloud becomes smaller. Electronegativity (x): ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself. (noble gases are excluded). Listed is an ionization series for a particular element: I1 = 738 kj/mol; i2 = 1451 kj/mol; i3 = 7733 = kj/kmol; i4 = 10540 kj/mol; i5 = 13628 kj/mol. The largest jump occurs between i2 and i3, so there must be an electron removed from noble gas form which is mg2+. Problem: arrange the following set of atoms/ions in terms of increasing electron affinity: Answer: kr < cs < na < f.
