When we locate an element in the periodic table, we inmediately know:
Its atomic number
Its electronic configuration
fig 1: Periodic table trends
Its period and family
Its relative size
Its metallic character
Its relative electronegativity
The bondings with other elements: If the two are on the left side of the periodic table (except H): Metallic; If one is on the left and the other is on the rigth: ionic; If the two are on the rigth: covalent.
If we look at table position´s to find K and Cl (find them), we will see:
K Z=19; It is a metal: period 4, group I, [Àr] 4s1, alcali metal, F Z=9; It is non metal. Halogen. [Ne] 3s2 3p5
We can order their properties by their position: a) Atomic radius: K is on the left and in a bigger period: look at the trend in fig 1: K atom is much bigger than Cl; K is also much more metallic. The ionization energy is bigger for Cl, because it is on the rigth and in a lower period. They will form an ionic bonding: a Crystal.
In the table, locate these elements: Rb, Ca, P, and O and: a) Tell their atomic number, period, group, and if it is a metal; (3 ESO: electronic configuration) b) Order them by its atomic radious, metallic character, ionization energy c) (3 ESO): Tell the kind of bonding between: Rb and O; Ca and Ca, P and P Send the answers to the teacher using "Formulario de Contacto" Wacth this video:
