answer
K=C+273
question
What does Dalton's atomic theory say?
answer
1. All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms2. Atoms of the same element are identical. The atoms of any one element are different from those of any other element.3. Atoms of different elements can physically mix together or can chemically combine with one another in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds.4. Chemical reactions occur when atoms are seperated, joined, or rearranged. Atoms of one element, however, are never changed into atoms of another element as a result of a chemical reaction.
question

answer
Discovered electronscathode ray tube!
question
What did Robert Millikan do and how did he do it?
answer
he figured out the charge and mass of electrons with the oil drop experiment
question
Whats in an atom and where are the parts located?
answer
Protons and Neutrons - in the nucleus- Electrons: orbiting the nucleus
question
What is atomic number?
answer
Number of protons in the nucleus(this also equals the number of electrons)
question
What is mass number?
answer
number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus
question
What is an isotope?
answer
Atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons
question
What is atomic mass?
answer
a weighted average mass of the atoms in a naturally occuring sample of the elements
question
Who constructed the first periodic table and how was it set up?
answer
Mendeleev-increasing atomic mass
question
Who constructed the periodic table used today?How did he arrange it?
answer
Henry Moseleyincreasing atomic number
question
What are the names of the groups on the periodic table?
answer
-Group 1: alkali metals-Group 2-13: transition metals-Group 17: halogens-Group 18: noble gases
question
What is an anion?
answer
a negatively charged atom
question
What is a cation?
answer
a positively charged atom or group of atoms
question
What are characteristics of binary molecular compounds?
answer
- End in ide- prefixes: mono-dec- all upstairs(above the stair-like break in the periodic table
question
What are characteristics of binary ionic compounds?
answer
- No prefixes- end in ide- upstairs and downstairs
question
Characteristics of ternary ionic compounds
answer
- No prefixes- ends in ate or ite- polyatomic ions(on your bookmark...)
question

- No prefix- Polyatomic ions(on your bookmark...)- ate -> ic- ite -> ous
question
What is the shape of the s orbital?
answer
spherical
question
What is the shape of p orbitals?
answer
dumb-bell
question
How do you get the first quantum number?
answer
It is the coefficient of the outermost energy level (aka the biggest number)
question
How do you get the second quantum number?
answer
the orbital its in: s=0; p=1; d=2; f=3
question
How do you get the third quantum number?
answer
it depends on where you land. The center circle is 0 and you act like its a number line
question
How do you get the 4th quantum number?
answer
if the orbital you land in is full, then the last quantum number is -1/2. If the orbital you land is half full then the last quantum number is +1/2
question
What does Aufbau principle say?
answer
Electrons enter orbitals of lowest energy first.
question
What does the Pauli exclusion principle say?
answer
an atomic orbital may describe at most two electrons
question
What does Hund's rule say?
answer
WHen electrons occupy orbitals of equal energy, one electron enters each orbital until all the orbitals contain one electron with parallel spins
question
What does the Heisenberg uncertainty principle say?
answer
it is impossible to know exactly both the velocity and the position of a particle at the same time
question
What do anions end in?
answer
ide
