Label the arrows on the periodic table below that show group(column) and period trends in the first ionization energy of the elements and atomic size
Explain the trends in light of electron configuration. Do this by
a)choosing a column(group), listing the general electron configuration, then explaining how this configuration affects ionization energy and why(don't forget effective nuclear charge). Do the same analysis for atomic size.
b) Choose period(row) 2 or 3. Write the electron configuration for each element, then explain how this configuration affects ionization energy and why(don't forget effective nuclear charge). Do the same analysis for atomic size.
What is the periodic trend for electron affinity? Write an equation representing the electron affinity for sulfur. Is it likely that sulfur will form the anion S2-? Explain.
Indicate the nature of each of the oxides, acidic, basic, amphoteric and write the chemical equation for its reaction with water. If the oxide does not react with water, write the reaction of it with an acid(HCl) and base (NaOH). a) Al2O3 b) CaO c) P4O10
