1: The Elements of Group 13
2: The Elements of Group 14
3: The Elements of Group 15 (The Pnicogens)
This document discusses the properties and reactivity trends of Group 15 elements, focusing particularly on nitrogen and other pnicogens. It explains how nitrogen forms compounds with various oxidation states and highlights the unique inability of nitrogen to form stable catenated compounds. The text outlines the reactivity patterns of heavier pnicogens as they decrease with atomic number and discusses the formation of binary compounds, coordination numbers, and hybridization.
4: The Elements of Group 16 (The Chalcogens)
5: The Elements of Group 17 (The Halogens)
6: The Elements of Group 18 (The Noble Gases)
7: End of Chapter Material
