Atomic Structure and the periodic table. Flashcards
(27 cards)
What is the relative charge of electron particles?
also proton and neutrons.
Electrons= -1
Protons=+1
Neutrons=0
Name the region where most of the mass of the atom is concentrated.
Nucleus.
Define a compound.
two or more elements chemically combined
e.g ammonia (NH3)
Define an isotope.
different versions of the elects each with the same number of protons, however different numbers of neutrons.
39
K name the protons, neutrons + electrons.
19
Protons=electrons (19)
Neutrons= 39-19 (20)
What is the charge of a proton?
+1
True or false? Elements contain more than one type of atom.
false only atoms with the same number of protons are contained within elements.
Give the formula for Carbon dioxide.
CO2
Give the formula for Sodium Carbonate.
Na2CO3
What is the difference between a compound and a mixture?
unlike compounds the is no chemical bond between the different parts of a mixture.
What is the name of the pattern formed from carrying out paper chromatography?
chromatogram
Which method of separation is useful to separate an insoluble solid from a liquid?
Filteration
Give the name of a method to separate a soluble solid from a liquid.
evapouration.
Which method of distillation would you use to separate liquids with similar boiling points?
fractional distillation
Who discovered that the plum pudding model was wrong?
Rutherford.
Who first devised an experiment that proved the existence of the neutron?
James Chadwick
What is the electronic structure of sodium?
2, 8, 1
Why did Mendeleev leave gaps in his table of elements?
To make sure elements with similar properties stayed in the same groups..
How are the group number and the number of electrons in the outer shell of an element related?
The number of electrons in the outer shell was the same number as the group.
What kind of ions do metals form?
metals form positive ions.
Where are non-metals on the periodic table?
Far right and top of the periodic table.
State three trends as you go down group 1.
All have one electron in their outer shell.
All metals and react in a similar way.
React more vigorously as you go down the group.
State the products of the reaction of sodium and water.
sodium hydroxide + hydrogen
How do the boiling points of halogens change as you go down the group from fluorine to astatine?
The reactivity decreases
Higher melting and boiling points
higher relative atomic masses
