The elements in the periodic table are grouped by similar chemical properties, which come from the similarities in the arrangement of their electrons. These electron arrangements can be expressed as generic outer electron configurations, i.e., the electron configuration outside the noble gas core, for all periods in a group using n instead of a specific number. Similarly, the generic Lewis dot structures for each group can be drawn using X to represent a generic element symbol. Match each generic electron arrangement to the appropriate periodic group number. Note that not all of the electron arrangements must be used. 1A (1) 2A (2) 3A (13) 4A (14) 5A (15) 6A (16) 7A (17) 8A (18)

The energy needed to remove one electron from a gaseous potassium atom is only about two-thirds as much as that needed to remove one electron from a gaseous calcium atom, yet nearly three times as much energy as that needed to remove one electron from K+ as from Ca+ . What explanation can you give for this contrast? What do you expect to be the relation between the ionization energy of Ca+ and that of neutral K?
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.
