Noble Gas elements are used to write shortened electron configurations. To write a Shorthand Configuration for an element: (1) Write the Symbol of the Noble Gas element from the row before it in brackets [ ]. (2) Add the remaining electrons by starting at the s

When the elements were studied scientists noticed that some of them do not react in certain situations in which others do. These elements were labeled "stable" because they did not change easily. When these stable elements were grouped together, it was noted that periodically, there were patterns in the occurrence of stable elements. Today we recognize that this difference in stability is due to electron configurations.
Elements of varying stability fall into one of 3 categories. The most stable atoms have completely full energy levels. ~Full Energy Level ~Full Sublevel (s, p, d, f) ~Half Full Sublevel ( d
5, f7)
Next in order of stability are elements with full sublevels. ~Full Energy Level ~Full Sublevel (s, p, d, f) ~Half Full Sublevel ( d
5, f7)
Finally, the elements with half full sublevels are also stable, but not as stable as elements with fully energy levels or sublevels. ~Full Energy Level ~Full Sublevel (s, p, d, f) ~Half Full Sublevel ( d 5, f7) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 6 7

Chromium Expect: [Ar] 4s2 3d4 Actually: [Ar] 4s1 3d5 For some elements, in order to exist in a more stable state, electrons from an s sublevel will move to a d sublevel, thus providing the stability of a half-full sublevel. To see why this can happen we need to examine how "close" d and s sublevels are.

Since the electromagnetic force decreases rapidly as distance increases, we could say that the distance between charges affects an atoms ability to hold onto electrons more than the actual number of protons in the nucleus. Applying Coulomb's Law:
E # qnucleus
Electronegativity is a measure of the ability of atoms in a molecule to attract electrons to themselves. On the periodic chart, electronegativity increases as you go… from left to right across a row from the bottom to the top of a column

The Noble Gases are some of the smallest atoms, but are usually left out of electronegativity trends since they neither want electrons nor want to get rid of electrons. Using your knowledge of electron configurations, why do you think noble gases are left out of electronegativity trends?

The first is between Groups 2 and 13 (3A). As you can see on the chart to the right, the ionization energy actually decreases from Group 2 to Group 13

electron actually adds stability. The electron removed is farther from nucleus, there is a small amount of repulsion by the s electrons. The atom gains stability by having a full s orbital, and an empty p orbital.

ionization energies.
Ionization Ionization Energy 1st: Na + IE --> Na+ + e- 496 kJ/mol 2nd: Na+ + IE --> Na2+ + e- 4560 kJ/mol 3rd: Na2+ + IE --> Na3+ + e- 6,900 kJ/mol 4th: Na3+ + IE --> Na4+ + e- 9540 kJ/mol
Note the huge jump in ionization energy from the 1st to the 2nd. After sodium loses it's first electron, it is isoelectronic with [Ne], with an extremely stable full s and p orbital and minimal shielding. Each successive ionization energy is always higher than the
remaining electrons.
Ionization Ionization Energy 1st: X + IE --> X+ + e- 900 kJ/mol 2nd: X+ + IE --> X2+ + e- 1757 kJ/mol 3rd: X2+ + IE --> X3+ + e- 14,850 kJ/mol

This trend in ionic charge can be easily explained if we apply the quantum model of the atom.
Element Principal Quantum Number (N)

+1 He 1 1s2 NA NA Li 2 [He]2s1 lose 1 +1 Be 2 [He]2s2 lose 2 +2 B 2 [He]2s22p1 lose 3 +3 C 2 [He]2s22p2 lose 4 +4 N 2 [He]2s22p3 gain 3
O 2 [He]2s22p4 gain 2
F 2 [He]2s22p5 gain 1

The pattern recurs with every increase in the principal quantum
gain electrons to obtain a full shell or subshell, thereby increasing their stability.
