12. Allotropes Some elements exist in more than one structural form. This property is called ALLOTROPY Consider carbon – 2 common allotropes are graphite and diamond. Both consist only of atoms of carbon, C, but their structures are very different, and hence their properties differ This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

16. The Octet Rule Because filled orbitals give the best STABILITY , all elements try to attain a noble gas configuration (i.e. 8 electrons in their valence shell) 2 ways of doing this: (i) losing electrons; or (ii) gaining electrons (which ever uses the least energy) This is the driving force behind the chemistry of the elements and is called the OCTET RULE This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

18. Definition An ION is a charged atom or molecule. There are 2 types of ion: A CATION is positively charged An ANION is negatively charged This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License
19. Cations Cations are formed when an atom loses 1 or more valence electron: Na Na + + e - Mg Mg 2+ + 2e - The loss of electrons is known as OXIDATION and is a typical reaction of metals This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

21. Group 1 = [NG] ns 1 Group 2 = [NG] ns 2 Elements in these groups want to LOSE their outer (valence) electrons to gain the noble gas configuration [NG]: Na Na + + e - Mg Mg 2+ + 2e - Electronic configuration of both cations = [Ne] The energy required to remove a valence electron is called the IONISATION ENERGY Group 1 & 2 elements (metals) This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License Group 1 Group 2 Ra Fr Ba Cs Sr Rb Ca K Mg Na Be Li
22. Anions Anions are formed when an atom gains 1 or more valence electron: F + e - F - O + 2e - O 2- The gain of electrons is known as REDUCTION and is a typical reaction of non-metals This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License

Relative Atomic Mass, A r This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License Mg 24 78.7 Mg 25 10.1 Mg 26 11.2 % abundance The relative atomic mass of an element is the weighted mean of the atomic masses of all the stable isotopes for that element. For example: A r (Mg) = 24.3 Atomic mass
