In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers which is related to the
electronic configuration. Depending upon the type of orbitals receiving the last electron, the elements in the
periodic table have been divided into four blocks, viz, s, p, d and f. The modern periodic table consists of 7 periods
and 18 groups. Each period begins with the filling of a new energy shell. In accordance with the Arfbau principle,
the seven periods (1 to 7) have 2, 8, 8, 18, 18, 32 and 32 elements respectively. The seventh period is still
incomplete. To avoid the periodic table being too long, the two series of f-block elements, called lanthanoids and
actinoids are placed at the bottom of the main body of the periodic table.

Comprehension # 4
It is not possible to measure the atomic radius precisely since the electron cloud surrounding the atom does not
SI
have a sharp boundary. One practical approach to estimate the size of an atom of a non-metallic element is to
measure the distance between two atoms when they are bound together by a single bond in a covalent molecule and
then dividing by two. For metals we define the term “metallic radius” which is taken as half the internuclear distance
O

separating the metal cores in the metallic crystal. The van der waal’s radius represents the over all size of the atoms
which includes its valence shell in a non bonded situation. It is the half of the distance between two similar atoms
in separate molecules in a solid. The atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down the group. Same
O

trends are observed in case of ionic radius. Ionic radius of the species having same number of electrons depends on
the number of protons in their nuclei. Sometimes, atomic and ionic radii give unexpected trends due to poor
ET

shielding of nuclear charge by d- and f-orbital electrons.

 PERIODIC TABLE

Comprehension # 5
The periodicity is related to the electronic configuration. That is, all chemical and physical properties are a
manifestation of the electronic configuration of the elements.
The atomic and ionic radii generally decrease in a period from left to right. As a consequence, the ionization
enthalpies generally increase and electron gain enthalpies become more negative across a period. In other words,
the ionization enthalpy of the extreme left element in a period is the least and the electron gain enthalpy of the
element on the extreme right is the highest negative. This results into high chemical reactivity at the two extremes
and the lowest in the centre. Similarly down the group, the increase in atomic and ionic radii result in gradual
decrease in ionization enthalpies and a regular decrease (with exception in some third period elements) in electron
gain enthalpies in the case of main group elements.

IA
The loss and gain of electrons can be co-related with the reducing and oxidising behaviour, and also with metallic
and non-metallic character respectively, of the elements.

Comprehension # 1
Read the following comprehension carefully and answer the following questions.
Numerous forms of periodic table haev been revised from time to time. A modern version, which is most convinient
and widely used is the long or extended form of periodic table.The afbau principle (electrons are filled in the
progressive order of their increasing energy, i.e ny n+1 rule ) and the electronic cconfiguration of atom provide a
theoritical foundation for the periodic classification. The horizontal rows are called periods. There are altogether
seven periods. The first period consists of 2 elements. The subsequent periods consist of 8, 8, 18, 18 and 32
elements respectively. The seventh period is incomplete and like the sixth period would have the maximum of 32
elements.

Each successive period in the periodic table is asssociated with the filling up next higher principal energy level
following afbau principle. The number of eleementss in each period iss twice the number of atomic orbitals available
in the energy level that is being filled. All the elements are classified into four blocks, i.e., s-block, p-block, d-block

The amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound eleectron from as isolated gaseous atom is called
as first ionization energy (IE1). Similarly the amount of energies required to knock out second, third etc. electrons
from the isolated gaseous cation are called successive ionization energies and IE3 > IE2 > IE1.

In (ii) the energy has to be supplied for the addition of second electron due to the electrostatic repulsion between
an anion and extra electron ( same charged species ). The electron affinity of an elements depends upon (i) atomic
size (ii) nuclear charge and (iii) electronic configuration. In general, ionisation energy and electron affinity increases
as their atomic size decreases and nuclear chargee increases across a period. In general, in a group, ionisation
energy and eleectron affinity decreasese as the atomic size increases down the group.
The members of the third period have some higher ( e.g. S and Cl ) electron affinity values that the members of the
second period ( e.g. O and F ) because second period elements have very small atomic size. Hence there is a
tendency of electron-electron repulsion, which result in less evolution of energy in the formation of corresponding
anion.
