Periodic Properties I A hypothetical element, X, has the following ionization energy values: First ionization energy: 900 kJ/mol Second ionization energy: 1750 kJ/mol Third ionization energy: 14,900 kJ/mol Fourth ionization energy: 21,000 kJ/mol Another element, Y, has the following ionization energy values: First ionization energy: 1200 kJ/mol Second ionization energy: 2500 kJ/mol Third ionization energy : 19,900 kJ/mol Fourth ionization energy: 26,000 kJ/mol a To what family of the periodic table would element X be most likely to belong? Explain? b What charge would you expect dement X to have when it forms an ion? c If you were to place elements X and Y into the periodic table, would element Y be in the same period as element X?

Cerium, as noted in Applying Chemical Principles: 22.3 The Rare Earths, is a relatively abundant lanthanide element that has some important uses. Cerium(IV) oxide. CeO2, is widely used as a polishing agent for glass. Cerium(III) sulfide, Ce2S3, is becoming more widely used as a red pigment to replace cadmium pigments, which are environmentally less desirable. (a) Give the electron configurations (using the noble gas notation) for Ce, Ce3+, and Ce4+. (b) Is either Ce3+ or Ce4+ paramagnetic? If so, how many unpaired electrons does each have? (c) The solid state structure for CeO2 is shown below. Describe the unit cell of the compound. How is this structure related to the formula?
The successive ionization energies for an unknown element are I1 = 896 kJ/mol I2 = 1752 kJ/mol I3 = 14,807 kJ/mol I4 = 17,948 kJ/mol To which family in the periodic table does the unknown element most likely belong?

The first ionization energies of As and Se are 0.947 and 0.941 MJ/mol, respectively. Rationalize these values in terms of electron configurations.
The electron affinity of the lutetium atom (element 71) was measured using the technique of photoelectron spectroscopy with an infrared laser (the essay on p. 310 describes this instrumental method, using X rays). In this experiment, a beam of lutetium negative ions, Lu, was prepared and irradiated with a laser beam having a wavelength at 1064 nm. The energy supplied by a photon in this laser beam removes an electron from a negative ion, leaving the neutral atom. The energy needed to remove the electron from the negative ion to give the neutral atom (both in their ground states) is the electron affinity of lutetium. Any excess energy of the photon shows up as kinetic energy of the emitted electron. If the emitted electron in this experiment has a kinetic energy of 0.825 eV, what is the electron affinity of lutetium?
6.82 A particular element has the following values for its first four ionization energies: 900, 1760, 14, 850, and 21,000 kJ/mol. Without consulting a list of ionization energy values, determine what group in the periodic table this element belongs in.
Consider the following statement "The ionization energy for the potassium atom is negative, because when K loses an electron to become K +, it achieves a noble gas electron configuration." Indicate everything that is correct in this statement. Indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect information and explain.
For each of the following pairs of atoms or ions, state which you expect to have the larger radius. (a) Sm or Sm3+ (b) Mg or Ca (c) I orXe (d) Ge or As (e) Sr+ or Rb
