The Periodic Table is trendy! Episode 14 recaps Coulomb’s Law (1:10) and describes how it applies to atomic structure (2:00). We can use Coulomb’s Law to predict atomic radii (3:30) ionic radii (4:00). The episode also defines ionization energy, electronegativity and electron affinity (4:45), describes their periodic trends and ties them to Coulomb’s Law and atomic structure (5:33). But a trend is not always followed. Therefore we also recap two exceptions: the ionization energy of oxygen and nitrogen (6:23) as well as the first ionization energy of boron and beryllium (6:50). And because it is so important, we also have a test taking tip for you (7:28)!Question: Removing a second electron and forming a 2+ cation, requires ____ energy than removing the first electron.
