Atomic Radius

Is taken as the covalent radius for non-metallic elements and as the metallic radius for metals

Atomic Radius Covalent radius is one-half

the distance between the nuclei of two identical atoms that are singly bonded to one another.

Chlorine Bond Length

Atomic Radius Covalent radii for elements

whose atoms do not bond to one another can be estimated by combining radii of those that do with the distances between unlike atoms in various molecules.

Atomic Radius

Metallic radius is one-half the closest internuclear distance in a metallic crystal.

Size goes UP on going down a group.

Because electrons are added further from the nucleus, there is less attraction.

IE increases across a period because Z* increases.

Metals lose electrons more easily than nonmetals.

Metals are good reducing agents.

Nonmetals lose electrons with difficulty.

IE decreases down a group

Because size increases. Reducing ability

generally increases down the periodic table.

Remember Li, Na, K

electrons to form anions. E.A. is the energy released or

absorbed when an electron is added to the valence level of a gas-phase atom.
