The lanthanide contraction is the result of poor shielding of the 4f electrons by inner orbitals. As atomic number increases from La to Lu, the nuclear charge increases and 4f electrons penetrate closer to the nucleus. This causes the atomic and ionic radii to steadily decrease, resulting in smaller sizes down the lanthanide series. Due to the decreasing size, properties like ionization energy and electronegativity increase while chemical reactivity and basicity of hydroxides decrease from La to Lu.
The document discusses the modern periodic law and periodic trends in atomic properties. It can be summarized as follows:
1. The modern periodic law states that the properties of elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers. Elements are arranged in the periodic table based on increasing atomic number and similar outer electron configurations that repeat at regular intervals.
2. The periodic table is divided into blocks based on orbital types. Elements show trends in properties within periods and down groups, including decreasing atomic radius and increasing ionization energy with increasing atomic number. Electron affinity also tends to decrease down groups.
3. Successive ionization energies increase as more energy is required to remove additional electrons. Stability of half-filled and fully-filled

SE2 reactions also follow first-order kinetics, but occur in a single step through a transition state. SE2 reactions can result in retention or inversion of configuration. SEi reactions are concerted mechanisms where the electrophile assists in removing the leaving group, leading to retention of configuration.

Oxidative addition is a process where a metal complex increases its oxidation state and coordination number by addition of two ligands. It is the reverse of reductive elimination. It requires the metal to have available orbitals and be in a lower oxidation state. There are four mechanisms for oxidative addition: concerted, SN2, radical, and ionic. Oxidative addition and reductive elimination are important steps in many catalytic cycles in organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis.
Electronic spectra of metal complexes-1SANTHANAM V
This document discusses electronic spectra of metal complexes. It begins by relating the observed color of complexes to the light absorbed and corresponding wavelength ranges. It then discusses the use of electronic spectra to determine d-d transition energies and the factors that affect d orbital energies. Key terms like states, microstates, and quantum numbers are introduced. Configuration, inter-electronic repulsions described by Racah parameters, nephelauxetic effect, and spin-orbit coupling are explained as factors that determine the splitting of energy levels. Russell-Saunders and j-j coupling are outlined as approaches to describe spin-orbit interactions in light and heavy elements respectively.
Ionic solids are composed of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions arranged in a 3D array. The electrostatic attractions between opposite charges hold the ions in fixed positions, making ionic solids hard and brittle. The melting point of ionic solids is generally over 150 degrees C because strong electrostatic forces must be overcome for melting to occur. The radius ratio rule can be used to predict the coordination number of ions based on the ratio of cation to anion radii, with different ratios corresponding to different coordination geometries like tetrahedral or octahedral. While useful, the radius ratio rule has limitations as it treats ions as hard spheres and does not account for variations in effective ionic radii.
This document summarizes Crystal Field Theory, which considers the electrostatic interactions between metal ions and ligands. It describes ligands and metal ions as point charges that can have attractive or repulsive forces. This causes the d orbitals of the metal ion to split into two sets depending on if the field created by the ligands is weak or strong. The theory explains color in coordination compounds as being caused by d-d electron transitions under the influence of ligands. However, it has limitations like not accounting for other metal orbitals or the partial covalent nature of metal-ligand bonds.
The document discusses the concept of effective nuclear charge. It explains that the actual charge experienced by valence electrons is less than the true nuclear charge due to shielding by inner electrons. This decreased charge is called the effective nuclear charge (Zeff). Slater's rules provide a method to calculate the screening constant σ and thus determine Zeff. The concept of Zeff is applied to explain trends in ionization energy, filling of electron shells, and properties of cations, anions, and across the periodic table.

Matrix representations allow symmetry operations to be modeled as transformations on object coordinates.
Valence Bond Theory (VBT) explains the nature of metal-ligand bonding in complex compounds. VBT assumes that the central metal atom forms hybrid orbitals with its outer shell orbitals that overlap with ligand orbitals to form sigma bonds. There are two types of hybridization that result in octahedral geometry: d2sp3 for "inner-orbital" complexes with paired electrons, and sp3d2 for "outer-orbital" complexes with unpaired electrons. Examples that form via d2sp3 hybridization, making them inner-orbital complexes, include ferricyanide ([Fe(CN)6]3-), ferrocyanide ([Fe(CN)6]4-
This document discusses crystal field theory (CFT), which interprets the chemistry of coordination compounds. Some key points:
1. CFT was proposed by Hans Bethe in 1929 and modified by J.H. Van Vleck in 1935 to allow for some covalency. It assumes electrostatic interactions between metal ions and ligands.
2. In an octahedral crystal field, the d-orbitals split into two sets - the lower energy t2g orbitals and higher energy eg orbitals. The splitting is called the crystal field splitting parameter Δo.
3. The color of coordination compounds depends on the size of this splitting, as the energy difference corresponds to the absorption of photons.
Dr. Neelam from the Department of Chemistry presented on the topic of hyperconjugation. Hyperconjugation is the delocalization of σ-electrons from a C-H bond into an adjacent unsaturated system. It can occur in alkenes, alkynes, carbocations, and carbon radicals. The number of possible hyperconjugative structures equals the number of alpha hydrogens on sp3 hybridized carbon atoms. Hyperconjugation explains trends in stability and heats of hydrogenation between different alkenes. It is a permanent effect that does not change hybridization and is distance independent.

There are a total of 30 elements between the lanthanides (elements 57-71) and actinides (elements 89-103). The lanthanides and actinides are often referred to as the "inner transition metals" and exhibit similar chemical properties to lanthanum and actinium, respectively.
The document discusses valence bond theory and hybridization. Valence bond theory describes how covalent bonds are formed via the overlapping of atomic orbitals. Hybridization involves mixing atomic orbitals of similar energy to form new hybrid orbitals. Different types of hybridization (sp, sp2, sp3 etc.) result in hybrid orbitals with varying compositions and orientations that can explain the geometry of molecules.
Lattice energy refers to the energy released when separate ions in the gas phase form an ionic crystal lattice. It can be calculated theoretically using the Born-Landé equation or experimentally using the Born-Haber cycle. The Born-Landé equation considers the electrostatic attraction and repulsive forces between ions, while the Born-Haber cycle uses standard enthalpy data and Hess's law. Lattice energy depends on factors like ion charge and size - higher charge or smaller ions lead to stronger electrostatic forces and higher lattice energy. Lattice energy is an important concept for understanding the properties and stability of ionic compounds.
Periodic classification and periodic propertiesLATHAV18
This document discusses periodic classification and periodic properties. It begins by explaining that the modern periodic table arranges elements in order of increasing atomic number as electrons fill successive energy levels. The table is divided into blocks based on which orbital (s, p, d or f) the last electron enters. Periodic properties like atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, and electronegativity are then defined and their trends across the table are described. Specifically, atomic radius decreases left to right and increases top to bottom, while ionization energy and electron affinity generally increase left to right with some discontinuities.
The periodic table arranges all known elements in order of increasing atomic number and recurring chemical properties. Elements are organized into rows and columns, with each row representing an orbital period and each column representing a group of elements with similar electron configurations and properties. The periodic table has evolved over time as new elements were discovered and theories on atomic structure advanced, leading to the modern form that organizes elements based on their atomic numbers.

It provides an overview of each chapter including the topics covered, basic concepts explained, and periodic trends discussed such as ionization energy, electronegativity, atomic radius, and electron affinity. The document also defines periodicity and its significance in understanding element properties based on their position in the periodic table.
The document discusses the electron shell structure of multi-electron atoms. It begins by explaining how electrons populate energy levels according to the Pauli exclusion principle and minimizing total energy. Electron shells are characterized by principal quantum numbers n, with maximum electron density occurring at certain radii dependent on n. Successive atomic shells are then filled according to Hund's rules, which state that orbitals are filled with one electron each before pairing electrons, and that electrons in singly-occupied orbitals have the same spin. Atomic properties like volume and ionization energy show periodicity as shells are filled. Anomalies in filling order are also discussed.
- Electron configuration describes the arrangement of electrons in an atom's orbitals and energy levels according to 4 quantum numbers.
- The Pauli Exclusion Principle states that no two electrons can have the same set of 4 quantum numbers.

Classification of elements & periodicity in propertiesAlbein Vivek
The document discusses periodic trends in properties such as atomic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity. It explains Mendeleev's periodic table and how modern periodic law arranges elements based on atomic number instead of atomic mass. Periodicity in properties occurs because similar electronic configurations repeat at regular intervals as atomic number increases. Atomic radius generally decreases across a period as nuclear charge increases, and increases down a group as more shells are added. Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom, and is directly proportional to nuclear charge and inversely proportional to size and shielding effects.

Finally, it introduces how elements are written with their full electron configuration including shells and subshells.
This document summarizes a seminar on energy bands and gaps in semiconductors. It discusses the introduction of energy bands, including valence bands, conduction bands, and forbidden gaps. It describes how materials are classified as insulators, conductors, or semiconductors based on their band gap energies. Direct and indirect band gap semiconductors are also defined. Intrinsic, n-type, and p-type semiconductors are classified based on their majority charge carriers.

3. Periodic Classification of the elements
Modern periodic table i.e. long form of periodic table is based on “modern
periodic law”, which states that the properties of “the element are a periodic
function of their atomic numbers.”
If the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic numbers,
after certain intervals, there will be repetition in the properties of the elements.
The long form of periodic table is derived from original Mendeleeff’s periodic
table with modifications.
We know that, as we move from left to right, electrons are successively added at
every element with increase in atomic number.
A) “Periodic properties”
9. s, p, d and f-Block Elements
In long form of periodic elements divided into four types on basis of nature
of atomic orbital in which last electron enters. These types are as s, p, d and f
block elements.
For example – Sodium element
Q- What is the block position of Na in periodic table?
Ans- Atomic number of Sodium is 11, therefore electronic configuration of Sodium
as-
11Na- 1s2 , 2s2 sp6, 3s1
the last electron of Na enter in s-orbital, thus the sodium is s-block element.
10. s, p, d and f-Block Elements
In long form of periodic elements divided into four types on basis of nature
of atomic orbital in which last electron enters. These types are as s, p, d and f
block elements.
For example – Sodium element
Q- What is the block position of Na in periodic table?
Ans- Atomic number of Sodium is 11, therefore electronic configuration of Sodium
as-
11Na- 1s2 , 2s2 sp6, 3s1
the last electron of Na enter in s-orbital, thus the sodium is s-block element.
11. a) s-Block elements- “The element their last electron enters in ‘s’
atomic orbital such elements are called as s-block elements.”
The elements in these group as –IA and IIA
Groups Elements
IA H, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs AND Fr
IIA Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, AND Ra
The general valence shell electronic configuration of these elements varies from
ns1 to ns2 where n= number of valence shell of an element. (i.e. for IA 1s1 to 1s2
and IIA 2s1 to 2s2
The elements of this block lie on the extreme left to periodic table.
13. b) p-Block elements- “The element their last electron enters in ‘p’ atomic
orbital such elements are called as p-block elements.”
Group IIIA IVA VA VIA VIIA Zero group

Nh Fl Mc Lv Ts Og
The general valence shell electronic configuration of these elements varies from ns2 np1 to
ns2 np6 where n= number of valence shell of an element.
The elements in these group as –IIIA and VIIA groups
15. c) d-Block elements-
“The element their last electron enters in ‘d’atomic orbital such elements are
called as d-block elements.”
This block elements are present in the middle of the periodic table in between s
and p-block elements.
The valence shell electronic configuration of these elements can be given as (n-
1)d1-10, ns 0, 1, 2
These elements also called transition elements.
These elements are divided into four series corresponding to the filling of 2d,
4d, 5d, and 6d orbital’s of (n-1)th main shell.
16. 3d- Series: This is a first transition series and consists of ten elements. (21Sc, 22Ti,
23V, 24Cr, 25Mn, 26Fe, 27Co, 28Ni, 29Cu, 30Zn ). The last electron of these elements
are enter in 3d orbital, hence known as 3d series elements.
4d- Series: This is a second transition series and consists of ten elements. (39Y, to
48Cd). The last electron of these elements are enter in 4d orbital, hence known as
4d series elements.
5d- Series: This is a third transition series and consists of ten elements. (57La, 72Hf
to 80Hg). The last electron of these elements are enter in 5d orbital, hence known
as 5d series elements.
6d- Series: This is a fourth transition series and consists of ten elements.
(89Ac,104Rf to112Cn). The last electron of these elements are enter in 6d orbital,
hence known as 4d series elements.
18. d) f-Block elements-
“The element their last or additional electron enters in ‘f’ atomic orbital
such elements are called as f-block elements.”
This block elements are present at the bottom of the periodic table.
The general valence shell electronic configuration of these elements can be given
as (n-2) f0-14 (n-1)d0, 1, 2, ns2
These elements also called inner transition elements.
These elements are divided into two series corresponding to the filling of 4f,
5f, orbital’s of (n-2)th main shell.
19. 4f- Series ( Lanthanides or Lanthanones) : This is a first inner transition series
and consists of fourteen elements. (58Ce, to 71Lu ). The last electron of these
elements are enter in 4f orbitals.
5f- Series ( Actinides or Actinones) : This is a second inner transition series and
consists of fourteen elements. (90Th, to 103Lr ). The last electron of these elements
are enter in 5f orbital’s.
20. Periodic Properties
Covalent Radius
Defn- half the inter-nuclear distance between two identical atoms which
are linked by a covalent bond is called as Covalent radius.
Covalent
radius = d/2
Covalent radius.
23. Van der waal Radius or Collision radius
Q. Explain the term Collision radius.
Ans- Definition- “The half of the distance between the nuclei of two non-
bonded neighboring atoms of two adjacent molecules is called as collision
radius.”
It is also called as Van der Waals radius.
For Example- In solid crystalline form of B.H.C. (C6H6Cl6), the molecules
are so arranged that the shortest distance between chloride nuclei in different
molecules is 3.60 .
Thus, in this molecules the van der Waals radius of chlorine is 3.60/2 = 1.80 .
24.
25. Atomic and Ionic Radii
Q. Explain the term Atomic and ionic radius.
Ans- Atomic Radius- “The distance between the nucleus and outermost
shell of electrons of an atom ion is called as atomic radius.”
Ionic Radius- “The distance between the nucleus and outermost shell of
electrons of an ion is called as ionic radius.”
26.
27. Periodic Variations of Atomic and ionic radius.
In Period-
If we move from left to right in a period the values of atomic and
ionic radii decrease with increase in atomic number.
For example- Consider 2nd period it is observed that the atomic radii goes
decreasing from Li to F with increase in atomic number.
2nd period 3Li 4Be 5B 6C 7N 8O 9F 10Ne

Atomic radii in
pm

32. Metallic Radius-
Q. Explain the term Metallic radius.
Ans- Metallic Radius- “The half distance between the nuclei of two
adjacent metal atoms in the metallic close packed crystal lattice in which the
metal has coordination number of twelve is called as metallic radius.”
Metallic radii are generally smaller than Van der Waals radii because the
bonding in metallic crystal lattice is much stronger than Van der Waals forces.
Metallic radii are 10% to 15% larger than covalent radii.
33. Ionization Potential Or
Ionization Energy-
Defn- “The amount of energy required to remove the outermost electron
from an isolated gaseous atom of an element in its ground state to form
cation is called as ionization energy or potential.”
It is represented as IE or IP.
This is an energy required process (endothermic process).
34.
35. “The amount of energy required to remove the outermost or
valence electron from an isolated gaseous atom of an element in its
ground state to form cation is called as ionization energy or potential.”
36. The above process is specifically called as first ionization energy (I1) and
corresponds to removal of first electron.
Similarly 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc.(I2, I3, I4,….etc.) ionization energies corresponding
to the removal of 2nd, 3rd, 4th …etc. electron to form M2+, M3+, M4+ cation
respectively.
37. Periodic Variations of Ionization Energy.
In a Period-
If we move from left to right in a period the values of ionization energy
goes on increasing with increase in atomic number.
We know that atomic size goes on decreasing from left to right in a period.
i.e. distance between nucleus and outermost electron is becoming lesser
and lesser in a period.
Now, as atomic number increases, the positive charge or nuclear charge
also increases i.e. electron is attached more strongly by the nucleus.
Thus removal of electron required more amount of energy.
39. Exceptions-
Now, the exceptions to this general trends in 2nd period Be, N, Ne and in 3rd
period Mg, P and Ar.
The high values of these elements can be explained on the ground that
either completely filled orbital’s or half filled orbital’s are extra stable and
therefore required more energy to remove an electron from these atoms.
For example- electronic configuration as Be-1s2,2s2 completely filled 2s
sub shell and Ne-1s2,2s22p6 completely filled.
In N-1s2,2s22p3 exactly half filled p sub shell . Removal of electron from
such atoms difficult and required more amount of energy.
40. In a Group-
In a group if we move from top to bottom ionization energy goes on
decreasing with increase in atomic number.
This decrease in the values of ionization energy can be explained by
taking into consideration the following three factors mainly.
1. Increase in atomic size-
2. Screening effect (Shielding effect) -
3. Increase in atomic number-
41. 1. Increase in atomic size- the atomic size increase moving from top to
bottom in a group, due to this lesser attraction force in between nucleus
and outermost electrons.
Thus removal of outermost electron more easy thereby required
lesser amount of energy and hence decrease in ionization energy.
2. Screening effect (Shielding effect) of the inner electron on the
outermost electron-
“The repulsion experienced by the valence electron due to presence of
inner shell electrons is called screening effect”.
42. • More the number of inner shells, stronger is the screening effect.
• Since in a group, every time there is the addition of one new shell, this
effect becomes more & more stronger and contributes so to the increased
repulsive force between nucleus and the outermost electron and hence
lesser attraction between them.
43. 3. Increase in atomic number-
• We move downwards in a group positive charge (nuclear charge) goes on
increasing regularly due to increase in atomic number.
• Due to this, the outermost electron is attracted more and more strongly
towards the nucleus. Therefore, the effect of increase in atomic number
should cause increase in the values of ionization energy.
First two effects nullify the effect of increase in atomic number.
Hence , though nuclear charge increases while move downwards in a
group, it is not that much enough to counter balance the effect of increase
in the atomic size as well as increase in the screening effect.
44. First two effects nullify the effect of increase in atomic number.
Hence, though nuclear charge increases while move downwards in a
group, it is not that much enough to counter balance the effect of
increase in the atomic size as well as increase in the screening effect.
45. “Effect of IE on different Properties of
Element”
The Magnitude of ionization energy affects different properties of
elements like
metallic and nonmetallic character,
relative reactivity,
oxidizing and reducing power and
acidic and basic nature of oxides and hydrides etc.
46. 1. Metallic and nonmetallic-
Metallic nature is nothing but ability of metal to lose one or more
electrons to forms cation. This ability depends upon the ionization
energy. That is with increase in ionization energy decrease the metallic
character of an element.
When we move from left to right in a period, ionization energy
increases which in turn decrease metallic character.
Thus alkali and alkaline earth metals are metallic in nature whereas
halogens are typical non metals.
47. 2. Relative reactivity-
The element with higher value of ionization potential are less reactive.
(for example- inert gases).
While those have lower value are highly reactive. For example alkali and
alkaline earth metals.
Ionization energy of elements in group decrease from top to bottom,
therefore, reactivity of elements increase.
48. 3. Oxidizing and reducing power of elements-
An element which reduces other elements by providing electrons and
itself undergoes oxidation such elements are called as reducing agent.
The ability of an element reduces to other is called as reducing power of
an element.
It is depends upon the ionization energy, lower the ionization energy
greater the ease of its oxidation and stronger the reducing agent.
Therefore alkali metals have lower IP values are stronger reducing
agents.
49. 4. Acidic and Basic nature of oxides and hydroxides-
An element which loses an electron easily and gets converted into
positively charged ion (cation) is said to show basic character.
Lower the values of IP easy removal of an electron.
Therefore lower IP values elements are greater will be its basic
character.
Thus metal oxides and hydroxides are basic in nature.
Basic properties of elements increase with increase in atomic number in
a group.
50. Electron Affinity/Affinity Energy-
Defn- “The amount of energy released when an electron is added to an
isolated neutral gaseous atom in its ground state to produce an anion
affinity or affinity energy.”
It is represented as E or EA.
Its unit electron Volts (eV), Kilocalories (Kcal) per gram or Kilojule per
mole (KJ. Mole1-)
This is an exothermic process because energy released in it.
51.
52. Periodic Variations-
Generally electron affinity decreases with increase in atomic radius and
increases with decrease in screening effect by the inner electrons.
Apart from these factors, nature of orbital also affects the E values.
If other factors are common, the electron affinity is largest for an
electron entering as s-orbital and decreases in the order, s>p>d<f
orbital.
62. Electronegativity-
Defn- “The tendency or ability of an element to attract the electron pair or
shared pair towards itself is called as electronegativity of an element.”
Electronegativity of an atom is represented as cA.
The term "electronegativity" was introduced by Jöns Jacob
Berzelius in 1811.
Pauling first time proposed this term. He assigned an imaginary
value of 4 for fluorine, the most electronegative element among all
elements.
63.
64. For example- HCl molecule which is formed by combination of two
dissimilar atoms, hydrogen and chlorine. The electron pair shared in between
H & Cl, this electron pair nearer to the Cl i.e. does not lie in center. The reason
for this unequal sharing of electron pair is that the Cl has a greater tendency to
attract electron pair than H-atom.
65.
66. In a Period-
If we moving from left to right in a period, electronegativity increases
with increase in atomic number.
Periodic Variations
67. Explanation-
Electronegativity increases from left to right is due to that the radius
decreases gradually.
But since there is increase in the nuclear charge, the added electron is
held more strongly and this process goes on increasing from left to right
with increase in atomic number.
Thus resulting in the increase in electronegativity values
68. In a Group-
If we move from top to bottom in a group, electronegativity decrease with
increase in atomic number.
69. Explanation-
Electronegativity decrease when we proceed downwards in group.
because increase in atomic radius due to which added electron experiences
lesser force of attraction towards nucleus.
Another factor, screening effect, which along the group due to increase in
the number on inner shells, is also responsible for decreased attraction
between nucleus and the added electron.
Therefore, small atoms attracts electrons more strongly than larger ones and
are thus these are more electronegative.
71. Determination of Electronegativity values
There are two different scales to determine the electronegativity
values of elements-
1) Pauling’s electronegativity scale or Pauling’s Bond
Energy Scale-
This method takes into consideration bond energies i.e. the energy required
to break a bond to form neutral atoms.
Consider a bond A-B between two dissimilar atoms A and B of a
molecule AB. Let the bond energies of A-A, B-B and A-B bonds be denoted
as EA-A, EB-B and EA-B respectively.
The bond formed between two atoms A and B is generally
intermediate between pure covalent A-B and pure ionic A+B- .
72. Because of the partial ionic character the bond is strengthened or in
other words, the bond energy is increased. The bond in fact is stabilized by
resonance.
In the determination of electronegativity scale, the following measurements
are made.
1. Actual or Experimental bond energy = H
2. Bond energy when the bond is truly covalent = Q
3.Resonance energy () due to ionic character of covalent bond called
Ionic Resonance energy () = H- Q
Since resonance energy is a measure of partial ionic character of a
covalent bond and the difference in electronegativity between the bonded
atoms is also related to the ionic character of the bond,
73. so is also related to the difference in the electronegativity of the
bonded atoms. If XA and XB are the electronegativity of atoms A and B and
XA > XB , then
The factor 0.208 comes from the conversion of experimental value,
measured in kcal/mole into eV energy. Pauling fixed arbitrarily 4.0 as
electronegativity value for fluorine. From this, other electronegativity values
were calculated using the above equation (2).
………..(1)
………..(2)
74.
75.
76. Electronegativity-
Defn- “The tendency or ability of an element to attract the electron pair or
shared pair towards itself is called as electronegativity of an element.”
Electronegativity of an atom is represented as cA.
The term "electronegativity" was introduced by Jöns Jacob
Berzelius in 1811.
Pauling first time proposed this term. He assigned an imaginary
value of 4 for fluorine, the most electronegative element among all
elements.
77. 2. Mullikan’s Scale-
According to Mullikan electronegativity is some type of mean of the
difference of ionization potential (IP) and electron affinity (EA) of an atom.
To approximate his values to those on Pauling’s electronegativity scale, he
defined the electronegativity of an atom A by the relation.
Determination of Electronegativity values
There are two different scales to determine the electronegativity
values of elements-
1) Pauling’s electronegativity scale or Pauling’s Bond
Energy Scale-
82. For example 1) Calculate the effective nuclear charge felt by the 3p electron
of Silicon.
Solution- Si atomic number is (z)=14
The electronic of Si= 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p2
we know, Zeff = Z -
According to slater’s rules,
For Si, = [0.35(no. of electron in the n group)+0.85(no. of electron in the (n-1)
group) + 1.00 (no. of electron for closer than (n-1) group)]
= [ (0.35x 3) + (0.85 x 8) + (1 x 2)]
therefore = 9.85
Now, Zeff = Z - = 14 - 9.85
= 4.15
83. 2) Calculate the effective nuclear charge on 4s electron in Potassium. (K-
At. No. 19)
Solution- K atomic number is (z)=19
The electronic of K= 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6 , 4s1
We know, Zeff = Z -
According to slater’s rules,
For K, = [0.35(no. of electron in the n group)+0.85(no. of electron in the (n-1)
group) + 1.00 (no. of electron for closer than (n-1) group)]
= [ (0.35x 0) + (0.85 x 8) + (1 x 10)]= 6.8+10.00
therefore = 16.8
Now, Zeff = Z - = 19 - 16.8
= 2.20
84. 3) Calculate the effective nuclear charge on 3s electron in Sodium. (K-At.
No. 11)
Solution- Na atomic number is (z)=11
The electronic of Na = 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1
We know, Zeff = Z -
According to slater’s rules,
For Na, = [0.35(no. of electron in the n group)+0.85(no. of electron in the (n-1)
group) + 1.00 (no. of electron for closer than (n-1) group)]
= [ (0.35x 0) + (0.85 x 8) + (1 x 2)] = 6.8+2.00
therefore = 8.8
Now, Zeff = Z - = 11 - 8.8
= 2.2
85. Effect of Electronegativity on the properties of elements
The Magnitude of electronegativity affects different properties of
elements like
Metallic and nonmetallic character,
Relative Reactivity,
Oxidizing and Reducing Property
86. 1. Metallic and nonmetallic-
Metallic nature is nothing but ability of metal to lose one or more
electrons to forms cation.
Electronegativity value increase with the metallic character decrease of
an element.
Hence metals have low electronegativity values while nonmetals have
high eletronegativity values because they have greater tendency to gain
electrons.
87. 2. Relative Reactivity-
Relative reactivity of a nonmetallic element in general increases with
increase in the value of electronegativity. E.g. among halogens , fluorine the
most electronegative element (4) is also the most reactive among them.
Relative reactivity order of halogens can be given as
F (4.0) > Cl (3.0) > Br (2.8) > I (2.1).
88. 3. Oxidizing and Reducing Property
More the electronegativity value, higher the tendency to gain
electrons and consequently greater the oxidizing power of an element, hence
elements having higher values of electronegativity acts as stronger oxidizing
agents. E. g. nonmetals are powerful oxidizing agents. On the other hand, the
metals have low values of electronegativity. Metals therefore acts as powerful
reducing agents. Decrease in the electronegativity value increases reducing
power of elements.
89. Electronegativity and Partial ionic character of a
covalent bond
In general, larger electronegativity difference between the atoms A
and B in a molecule AB, more will be its ionic nature. In other words,
“greater the value of XA- XB, greater the % of ionic character in a bond”. This
relationship between % ionic character and electronegativity difference can
be shown graphically as-
90. From the graph it follows that,
1. XA–XB = 1.7, then the bond A-B is 50% ionic and 50% covalent.
2. XA–XB > 1.7, then the bond A-B is more than 50% ionic and such
compounds are considered to be ionic.
3. XA–XB < 1.7, then the bond A-B is more than 50% covalent and less
than 50% ionic. Such compounds are called as covalent compounds.
