Document Summary

Ionization energy changes every electron lost because the proton to electron pull increases. Z eff remains same. changes drastically if valence shell. Electron affinities measured in gas phase so energy due to interaction of species ( liquid/solid ) Addition of electron to neutral atom results in loss of energy. Energy released is directly proportional to z eff. Therefore more energy is released towards the right side of the table. Also more energy at the top due to increased pull from nucleus, smaller radius. Ionic : oppositely charged ions are held together by electrostatic forces. Covalent : atoms are held together by the mutual attraction of a pair or pairs of electrons to the nuclei. Metallic : electrons are shared between many atoms simultaneously as a free flow Electronegativity can only be viewed in the form of a molecule not as a single atom.
