Key Concepts

Periodic Table Structure

• Groups (1-18): Similar valence electron configuration
• Periods (1-7): Same shell number
• Blocks: s, p, d, f based on orbital filling

Chemical Periodicity

# Example: Periodic trend calculations
periodic_trends = {
    'atomic_radius': {
        'across_period': 'decreases',
        'down_group': 'increases'
    },
    'ionization_energy': {
        'across_period': 'increases',
        'down_group': 'decreases'
    },
    'electronegativity': {
        'across_period': 'increases',
        'down_group': 'decreases'
    },
    'electron_affinity': {
        'across_period': 'generally increases',
        'down_group': 'generally decreases'
    }
}

Acid-Base Concepts

Arrhenius

• Acid: H⁺ donor
• Base: OH⁻ donor

Bronsted-Lowry

• Acid: Proton donor
• Base: Proton acceptor

Lewis

• Acid: Electron pair acceptor
• Base: Electron pair donor

Common Inorganic Compounds

• Acids: HCl, H₂SO₄, HNO₃, H₃PO₄
• Bases: NaOH, KOH, Ca(OH)₂
• Salts: NaCl, CaCO₃, NH₄NO₃
• Oxides: CO₂, SiO₂, Al₂O₃
