Whether a bond is nonpolar or polar covalent is determined by a property of the bonding atoms called electronegativity. Electronegativity values of the elements were proposed by one of the most famous chemists of the twentieth century: Linus Pauling.
Notice the word covalent. Co meaning jointly or together, valent meaning pertaining to those outside electrons. The stability of the noble gases is what all the elements want to achieve. These elements make up the last column or group of the periodic table. They all have full valence shells...
1) ATOMIC RADIUS TREND • WHY??? –Because there is an increase in the number of energy levels –More energy levels means electrons are further away from nucleus , so there is a weaker pull –This results in a BIGGER atom! Increases...
Periodic Table
As we moveacross a periodfrom left to right the nuclear charge increases and the atomic size decreases, therefore the value of electronegativity increases across a period in the modern periodic table. For example, the electronegativity trend across period 3 in the periodic table is depicted below....
Electronegativity alludes to the capacity of an iota to pull in shared electrons in a covalent bond. The higher the estimation of the electronegativity, the all the more unequivocally that component pulls in the mutual electrons. Black and White Periodic Table ...
1.For each of the alkali metals (Li to Cs) list their melting points (again design an appropriate table) 2.What is the trend as you go down each group? 3.Because alkali metals experience metallic bonding, it is the strength of the metallic bond that determines the properties of the meta...
3. Mendeleev’s Periodic Table Russian chemist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev put forth his periodic table in 1869. He observed that the properties of elements, both physical and chemical, were periodically related to the atomic mass of the elements. ...

Valence electrons and the periodic table (TylerDewit, 17 min) In particular, the number of outer-shell electrons (which is given by the rightmost digit in the group number) is a major determinant of an element's "combining power", or valence. The general trend is for an atom to gain or...
