 Animation illustrating the periodic trends in atomic radii
Notes
 As we move down a group in the periodic table the effective nuclear charge is essentially unchanged while the principal quantum number increases, resulting in an increase in the atomic radius. From left to right across a period the shielding by the inner electrons remains nearly constant while the number of protons in the nucleus increases, causing the atomic radii to decrease.

 Animation illustrating the periodic trend in oxidation states
Notes
 Elements in group IA and group IIA have oxidation numbers of +1 and +2, respectively. The maximum oxidation state increases from left to right across the periodic table. In the first row, O and F have negative oxidation numbers. In the second row S and Cl have positive oxidation numbers when they combine with O or F. In the third row the maximum oxidation number is +7 for Mn.

 The dissolution of potassium permanganate is illustrated both at the macroscopic and microscopic levels.
Notes
 Dissolution of KMnO4. When an ionic substance dissolves in water the ions are solvated by water molecules. The hydrogen atoms of the water molecule, which have a partial positive charge, interact with the permanganate ion. The oxygen atom of the water molecule, which has a partial negative charge, interacts with the potassium ion. Each ion is surrounded by several water molecules.

 Copper oxide reacts with carbon to form copper and carbon dioxide
Notes
 Reduction of CuO. When black carbon and black copper oxide are heated together the Cu2+ ions are reduced to metallic Cu and a gas is evolved. When the gas is collected in Ca(OH)2 a white precipitate of CaCO3 is formed. The reaction which occurs involves the reduction of Cu2+ ions by carbon which is oxidized to CO2.

 The reduction of Ag+ by Cu is demonstrated.
Notes
 Formation of silver crystals. When a copper wire is placed in a solution of AgNO3, the Cu reduces Ag+ to metallic Ag. At the same time, Cu is oxidized to Cu2+. As the reaction progresses Ag crystals can be seen to form on the Cu wire and the solution becomes blue as a result of the formation of Cu2+ ions.
