Q

why does reactivity increase going down group 1?

A

they need to lose one electron which is easier the further away it is from the centre

Q

why does reactivity decrease going down group7

A

they need to gain one electron but the forces pf attraction are weaker in the outer shells

Q

what are transition elements often used as

19
Q

What did dalton do to create the periodic table?

A

Arranged elements in order of atomic weights

20
Q

What did Newlands do to create the periodic table?

A

Proposed the law of octaves where the proposer ties of every eighth element were similar

21
Q

What was Mendeleev’s breakthrough?

A

He left gals in the periodic table for elements yet to be discovered

22
Q

How are elements organised in the periodic table now?

A

By increasing proton (atomic) number

23
Q

What does the group an element is in tell you!

A

How many electrons are in outer shell

24
Q

Why are noble gases very unreactive?

A

Full outer shell

25
Reaction of alkali metals with water?
Floats on water Fizzes Moves around
26
What is produced when an alkali metal reacts with water?
Metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas
27
Why are alkali metals stores under oil?
React with oxygen in air
28
What do the halogens all exist as
Molecules (pairs of atoms)
29
What colour is fluorine
Yellow
30
What colour is chlorine
Green
31
What colour is bromine
Red-brown
32
What colour is iodine
Purple
33
As you go down group 7:
Less reactive Higher m and b points Higher rfms
34
What are the two types of bonds halogens can make
Ionic bonds with metals | Covalent bonds with non metals
35
Why do halogens get less reactive down the group
Further from nucleus so harder to attract extra electron
36
What happens in a halogen displacement reaction?
A more receive one will displace a less reactive one from its salt
37
What ions do halogens form
1-
38
Why does reactivity increase down group 1?
The atoms get larger so the single electron they want to lose is farther from nucleus
39
What is the force called between nucleus and electrons
Force of attraction
40
What sub atomic particle can change force of attraction
Electrons can shield outer electrons from nucleus
41
Physical properties of transition elements
good conductors Hard and string High m points 'Typical metals'
42
What is special about ions of transition metals?
Can form 2+ or 3+ ions
43
How to tell whether 2+ or 3+ ion
Look at Roman numeral
