Document Summary

Large horse y starts buzzing around the rider + elephant. Horse y appears to be everywhere at the same 1me; analogous to an e- Can"t locate the e- exactly; instead, we get a probability cloud of where the e- will most likely be found. E- exhibit propermes of both waves + parmcles. Rider + elephant obey the laws of classical, newtonian physics. Because the uncertainty of the posi1on of a par1cle depends on the wavelength of the par1cle in ques1on in this analogy , the horse y is small enough to have signi cant wave-like proper1es. Periodic variamon of the propermes of the elements. Law of chemical periodicity the propermes of the elements vary periodically with their atomic. #s elements w/ similar propermes are arranged in groups (vermcal) on the periodic table. Periodic trends: atomic radius increases as you go to the leb and down the periodic table.
