Revise & Test
Revise key points without looking at your notes. Take a practice quiz and mark weak areas for another pass.
Spaced Revision
Come back to Periodic Table and Atomic Properties after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.
What to Focus On
- Dobereiner's triads grouped elements in threes with similar properties.
- Newlands' Law of Octaves noted repetition every eighth element but failed beyond calcium.
- Elements arranged by increasing atomic weight.
- Properties repeated periodically.
- Gaps left for undiscovered elements with predictions made.
- Atomic number, not atomic weight, determines element order.
- Modern Periodic Law explains periodicity based on electron configuration.
- Resolved placement issues in Mendeleev’s table.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Atomic size increases from left to right across a period because more electrons mean a bigger atom.
Ionization enthalpy always increases smoothly across a period without exceptions.
Anions are smaller than their parent atoms because adding electrons increases nuclear pull.
Memory Tips
Modern Periodic Law: Properties are periodic functions of atomic numbers.
Order of blocks: s, p, d, f
Ionization Enthalpy increases across a period, decreases down a group
Atomic size decreases across a period, increases down a group
