Radius ionic radius

Ionic radius. Ionic radii do not change much in going across a transition row. The reason for this is essentially a balance of two effects (1) As nuclear charge increases across the row, the electrons would be pulled in, so the ions ought... 

Atomic radii typically decrease from left to right across a period and increase down a group (Fig. 14.2 see also Fig. 1.46). As the nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons increases across a period, the electrons are pulled closer to the nucleus, so decreasing the atomic radius. Down a group the valence electrons are farther and farther from the nucleus, which increases the atomic radius. Ionic radii follow similar periodic trends (see Fig. 1.48). 

Because of the arrangement of elements on the periodic table, there are several patterns that can be seen between the elements. These patterns, or periodic trends, can be observed for atomic radius, ionic radii, ionization energies, electron affinities, and electronegativities. You should be familiar with the periodic and group trends for each of these. 

Ion solvation enthalpies scale inversely with ion radius. Ionic radii increase from Li to Na to K yet the enthalpies of solution decrease (see Figure 22.14). Write an electrostatic expression to rationalize this trend. 

The electron configuration or orbital diagram of an atom of an element can be deduced from its position in the periodic table. Beyond that, position in the table can be used to predict (Section 6.8) the relative sizes of atoms and ions (atomic radius, ionic radius) and the relative tendencies of atoms to give up or acquire electrons (ionization energy, electronegativity). 

In this section we will consider how the periodic table can be used to correlate properties on an atomic scale. In particular, we will see how atomic radius, ionic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity vary horizontally and vertically in the periodic table. 

For astatine, use your graphs from Problems 2 and 3 as a basis for a prediction of its covalent radius, ionic radius of the —1 ion, melting point, and boiling point.

With the knowledge now of the magnitude of the mobility, we can use equation A2.4.38 to calculate the radii of the ions thus for lithium, using the value of 0.000 89 kg s for the viscosity of pure water (since we are using the conductivity at infinite dilution), the radius is calculated to be 2.38 x 10 m (=2.38 A). This can be contrasted with the crystalline ionic radius of Li, which has the value 0.78 A. The difference between these values reflects the presence of the hydration sheath of water molecules as we showed above, the... 

The simplest extension to the DH equation that does at least allow the qualitative trends at higher concentrations to be examined is to treat the excluded volume rationally. This model, in which the ion of charge z-Cq is given an ionic radius d- is temied the primitive model. If we assume an essentially spherical equation for the u. . 

L is Avagadro s constant and k is defined above. It can be seen that there are indeed two corrections to the conductivity at infinite dilution tire first corresponds to the relaxation effect, and is correct in (A2.4.72) only under the assumption of a zero ionic radius. For a finite ionic radius, a, the first tenn needs to be modified Falkenliagen [8] originally showed that simply dividing by a temr (1 -t kiTq) gives a first-order correction, and more complex corrections have been reviewed by Pitts etal [14], who show that, to a second order, the relaxation temr in (A2.4.72) should be divided by (1 + KOfiH I + KUn, . The electrophoretic effect should also... 

The aluminium ion, charge -I- 3. ionic radius 0.045 nm, found in aluminium trifluoride, undergoes a similar reaction when a soluble aluminium salt is placed in water at room temperature. Initially the aluminium ion is surrounded by six water molecules and the complex ion has the predicted octahedral symmetry (see Table 2.5 ) ... 

It will be noted that hydration enthalpy decreases with increasing ionic radius and increases very sharply with increase in ionic charge, these results being what we should expect for an electrostate interaction between a charged ion and the dipole of a water molecule (p, 44).

The data in Table 7.1 show that, as expected, density, ionic radius, and atomic radius increase with increasing atomic number. However, we should also note the marked differences in m.p. and liquid range of boron compared with the other Group III elements here we have the first indication of the very large difference in properties between boron and the other elements in the group. Boron is in fact a non-metal, whilst the remaining elements are metals with closely related properties. 

The reason why lanthanides of high atomic number emerge first is that the stability of a lanthanide ion-citrate ion complex increases with the atomic number. Since these complexes are formed by ions, this must mean that the ion-ligand attraction also increases with atomic number, i.e. that the ionic radius decreases (inverse square law). It is a characteristic of the lanthanides that the ionic radius... 

Shannon and Prewitt base their effective ionic radii on the assumption that the ionic radius of (CN 6) is 140 pm and that of (CN 6) is 133 pm. Also taken into consideration is the coordination number (CN) and electronic spin state (HS and LS, high spin and low spin) of first-row transition metal ions. These radii are empirical and include effects of covalence in specific metal-oxygen or metal-fiuorine bonds. Older crystal ionic radii were based on the radius of (CN 6) equal to 119 pm these radii are 14-18 percent larger than the effective ionic radii. 

Chemical Properties. Although the chemical properties of the trivalent lanthanides are quite similar, some differences occur as a consequence of the lanthanide contraction (see Table 3). The chemical properties of yttrium are very similar too, on account of its external electronic stmcture and ionic radius. Yttrium and the lanthanides are typical hard acids, and bind preferably with hard bases such as oxygen-based ligands. Nevertheless they also bind with soft bases, typicaUy sulfur and nitrogen-based ligands in the absence of hard base ligands. 

Separation Processes. The product of ore digestion contains the rare earths in the same ratio as that in which they were originally present in the ore, with few exceptions, because of the similarity in chemical properties. The various processes for separating individual rare earth from naturally occurring rare-earth mixtures essentially utilize small differences in acidity resulting from the decrease in ionic radius from lanthanum to lutetium. The acidity differences influence the solubiUties of salts, the hydrolysis of cations, and the formation of complex species so as to allow separation by fractional crystallization, fractional precipitation, ion exchange, and solvent extraction. In addition, the existence of tetravalent and divalent species for cerium and europium, respectively, is useful because the chemical behavior of these ions is markedly different from that of the trivalent species.

The most common oxidation state of niobium is +5, although many anhydrous compounds have been made with lower oxidation states, notably +4 and +3, and Nb can be reduced in aqueous solution to Nb by zinc. The aqueous chemistry primarily involves halo- and organic acid anionic complexes. Virtually no cationic chemistry exists because of the irreversible hydrolysis of the cation in dilute solutions. Metal—metal bonding is common. Extensive polymeric anions form. Niobium resembles tantalum and titanium in its chemistry, and separation from these elements is difficult. In the soHd state, niobium has the same atomic radius as tantalum and essentially the same ionic radius as well, ie, Nb Ta = 68 pm. This is the same size as Ti ... 

The pentahalides of phosphorus, PX, in the gas phase exhibit varying tendencies to dissociate into trihaUde and halogen. InstabiUty increases with increasing ionic radius of the halogen. The pentafluoride appears to be thermally stable. Dissociation of the pentachloride, a few percent at 100°C and 101.3 kPa (1 atm), is essentially completed at 300°C (36). The pentabromide is partially dissociated in the Hquid state and totally dissociated above ca 35°C (39). Pentaiodide does not exist. The molecules of PF and PCl in the vapor phase are trigonal bipyramids. In the crystalline state, both pentachloride and pentabromide have ionic stmctures, ie, [PClJ IPClg] and [PBr4]" PBrJ , respectively. The PX" 4 cations are tetrahedral and the PX anion is octahedral (36,37).
