Atomic Radius and Bonding atomic radius decreases across the period
electronegativity, ionization energy increase across theperiod nonmetals on right ofpblock form anions in ionic
compounds
often reduced in chemical reactionsmaking them oxidizing agents
nonmetals on left ofpblock can form cations andelectron-deficient species in covalent bonding
nonmetals near the center of thepblock tend to usecovalent bonding to complete their octets
bonding tendency changes across the period fornonmetals from cation and covalent; to just covalent; toanion and covalent

Silicates
the most abundant elements of the Earths crustare O and Si
silicatesare covalent atomic solids of Si and Oand minor amounts of other elements
found in rocks, soils, and clays
silicates have variable structuresleading to thevariety of properties found in rocks, clays, and soils

Bonding in Silicates
each Si forms a single covalent bond to 4 Osp3hybridizationtetrahedral shape
Si-O bond length is too long to form Si=O
to complete its octet, each O forms a singlecovalent bond to another Si
the result is a covalent network solid

SiO2becomes AlO2
the negative charge is countered by the inclusionof a cation

if the SiO44are individual units neutralized by cations,
it forms an orthosilicate

Fluorine F

is a yellow-green toxic gas
F2is the most reactive nonmetal and forms binary compoundswith every element except He, Ne, and Ar including XeF2, XeF6, XeOF4, KrF2 so reactive it reacts with other elements of low reactivity resulting in
flames
even reacts with the very unreactive asbestos and glass stored in Fe, Cu, or Ni containers because the metal fluoride that forms coats
the surface protecting the rest of the metal
F2bond weakest of the X2bonds, allowing reactions to be moreexothermic
small ion size of F
leads to large lattice energies in ioniccompounds

Halogen Compounds form ionic compounds with metals and molecular compounds
having covalent bonds with nonmetals
halogens can also form compounds with other halogenscalledinterhalides for interhalides, the larger has lower electronegativityso it is central in the
molecule; with a number of more electronegative halides attached
general formula ABnwhere ncan be 1, 3, 5, or 7most common AB or AB3; only AB5has B = F, IF7only known n= 7
only ClF3used industrially to produce UF6in nuclear fuel enrichment
most halogen oxides are unstable tend to be explosive
OF2 only compound with O = +2 oxidation state
ClO2(g)is strong oxidizer used to bleach flour and wood pulp explosiveso diluted with CO2and N2
produced by oxidation of NaClO2with Cl2or the reduction of NaClO3with HCl
2 NaClO2+ Cl22 NaCl + 2 ClO22 NaClO3+ 4 HCl 2 ClO2+ 2 H2O + 2 NaCl
