The Oxygen Family
The family we are learning about is the Oxygen Family. Oxygen, Sulfur, and Selenium are all Nonmetals. Tellurium is a Semimetal, and Polonium is a Metal. All of these elements are in the P block. Oxygen reacts with virtually every other element except, the lower-mass Noble Gases. The electron configuration for Oxygen is 1s22s22p4. The Ionization Energy of Oxygen is 314kcal/mole. Its boiling point is
Ionization Energy is 225 kcal/mole for Selenium. Selenium's electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s13p63d104s24p4. The Ionization Energy of Sulfur is 239 kcal/mole. Polonium's electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s13p63d104s24p64d105s25p64f145d106s26p4. In the dark, selenium is a poor conductor of electricity. Selenium's properties are dark gray lustrous rods or dark red crystals. -183 degrees Celsius and its melting point is at -214. Tellurium's Ionization Energy is 208 kcal/mole. The boiling point for Sulfur is 445 degrees Celsius, and the melting point is 115 degrees Celsius. Sulfur's property is a pale yellow color. Sulfur's electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s13p4. Tellurium has an electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s13p63d104s24p64d105s25p4.
