TS Inter 1st Year Chemistry Notes 2nd Lesson Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties

→ According to Modern periodic law, the physical and chemical properties of ele-ments are periodic functions of their atomic numbers (or) electronic configurations.

→ In the Long form of the periodic table the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic numbers.

→ There are seven horizontal rows (periods) and eighteen vertical columns (groups) in the long form of periodic table.

→ Based on the entering of differentiating electron, elements are classified into four blocks. They are s – block, p – block, d – block and f – block.

→ Based on the number of incompletely filled shells, elements are classified into four types. They are :

  • Inert gas elements
  • Representative elements
  • Transition elements
  • Inner transition elements.

→ Repetition of properties of elements (i.e., similar elements) after definite regular intervals is called periodicity. The cause of periodicity is due to similar outer electronic configuration.

→ The distance between the nucleus and outermost electron of an atom is called atomic radius.

→ The regular decrease in the size of lanthanides from left to right, due to the ineffective shielding offered by inner f – orbital is called Lanthanide contraction.

→ The decrease in the attractive force of the nucleus on the valence electrons by the electrons of inner shells is called screen-ing effect or shielding effect.

→ The minimum amount of energy required to remove an electron present in the out-ermost orbit of a neutral isolated gaseous atom is called ionisation potential.

→ The amount of energy released when an electron is added to a neutral, isolated gaseous atom is called electron affinity.

→ The tendency of an atom to attract shared pair of electrons towards itself in a cova-lent molecule is called Electronegativity.

→ According to Mullikan scale, the E.N. value of an element is an average of its IP and E.N.

→ According to Pauling scale the difference in the E.N. values is given by
XA – XB = 0.208 √Δ.

→ The combining capacity of an atom with other atoms is called valency. It is the number of H atoms or the number of Cl atoms or double the number of ‘O’ atoms with which one atom of the element combines.

→ The tendency of losing electrons is called Electropositivity.

→ Metallic oxides are basic and non-metallic oxides are acidic.

→ The reluctance of ns2 electrons to get un-paired and take part in bonding is called inert pair effect’.

→ The first element of a group shows some similarities with the second element of the next higher group. This is called diagonal relationship’.
