How many elements were identified by the year 1700? What caused this rate to increase? |
answer
13; They began using scientific method to look for them |
question
What is a triad? |
answer
Set of 3 elements w/ similar properties |
question
Who was Dmitri Mendeleev? |
answer
Made the periodic table based on increasing atomic mass which allowed him to predict properties of undiscovered elements. |
question
How is todays periodic table arranged? |
answer
Elements with increasing atomic number |
question
What is the periodic law? |
answer
States that when elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic repitition of physical and chemical properties. |
question
What are 3 properties of metals? |
answer
Ductile, Malleable, High Luster |
question
A metalloid may: |
answer
behave like metal in some conditions and non metals in other conditions. |
question
What are three things other than name, symbol, atomic number, and average atomic mass, that you can discover from a periodic table. |
answer
Its electrons in each energy level, (Solid, gas, liquid) at room temp, Which group of elements it is in. |
question
What subatomic particle is key in determining the properties of an element? |
answer
Electrons |
question
What are representative elements? |
answer
They are group A and display a wide renge of physical & chemical properties |
question
What is atomic size? Describe how it trends on a periodic table. |
answer
an atoms atomic radius then two atoms are joined together. It generally increases from top to bottom in a group bc the number of energy levels increases. Atomic size decreases left to right across a period bc electrons are added to the same energy level and are pulled closer to the nucleus by increasing numbers of protons. |
question
What is an ion? |
answer
Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons |
question
Cation |
answer
A positively charged cation forms when an atom loses one or more electrons -- Smaller than the atom that formed it, positive (nonmentals) |
question
Anion |
answer
A negatively charged anion forms when an atom gains one or more electrons. -- Larger than the atom that formed it, negative (metals) |
question
Ionization Energy |
answer
A measure of how much energy is required to remove an electron from an atom. |
question
Trend of Ionization Energy |
answer
Decreases from top to bottom within a group and increases from left to right across a period. |
question
Trend of Ionic size |
answer
Metals tend to lose electrons and nonmetals tend to gain electrons. Increases from top to bottom within a group and decreases from left to right across a period. |
question
Electronegativity |
answer
A measure of an atoms ability to attract an electron when the atom is bonded to another atom. |
question
What is the most electronegative element? |
answer
Flourine |
question
Electronegativity trends |
answer
Decreases from top to bottom within a group and increases from left to right across a period. |
question
What are two variables that affect atomic sie in a group? |
answer
Charge in a nucleus & Increase in occupied orbitals. |
