Periodic Law
a law saying the elements, when listed in order of their atomic numbers, will fall into recurring groups with other similar properties
Periodic Trend
Group Trend
Atomic radius
Periodic/group trend for atomic radius
Radius decreases across periods
Radius increases down families/groups
Valence energy level
Valence electrons
electrons in the outermost energy level
Octet rule
Ions
atoms or molecules that are not neutral
Ionization
Ionization energy
measures how much energy it takes to remove an electron from an atom
*Higher IE → harder to steal from
1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc ionization energy
Energy needed to take the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and etcetera electron
Electronegativity
is a measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract electrons from another atom in the compound.
Period/group trends for electronegativity
Increases across periods
Increases down groups/families
Key discoveries/work of scientists in order
First periodic table (how it was arranged, what was missing)
