2. Atomic Struc-

- Describe and explain the periodicity in atomic and ionic radii

tures of s and p

of elements of the periodic table.

Block elements

- Explain and describe how the trends in melting and boiling

points are related to the electronic structures of the s and p

block elements.

- Describe, explain and predict the periodicity in electronega-

tivity of the elements across the table.

- Describe, explain and predict the periodicity in ionization

enegy of the elements across the table

- Describe, explain and predict the periodicity in electron affinity

of the elements across the table.

- Describe, explain and predict the periodicity in nuclear binding

energies of the elements across the table.

- Calculate the nuclear binding energy of any element in the

periodic table.

- Calculate the effective nuclear charge of any element in the

periodic table.
