Daltons atomic theory (4)
1) everything is made of atoms
2) atoms of the same element are identical, vice versa
3) atoms of diff elements combine in whole # ratios to make compounds
4) chemical reactions involve the rearrangements of atoms. no new atoms are created/destroyed
subatomic particles

what is the atomic #
number of protons
what is the mass number
how many protons + neutrons
how many electrons are in an atom
same as # of protons
what is the charge of an atom?
0/neutral
what is an isotope
atoms with a diff number of neutrons and same number of protons
amu formula
avg = mass1(percentage1) +…
who is mendeleev
russian chemist who created the first periodic table
who is henry mosley
chemis who arranged periodic table to what we use today (increased atomic #)
why is the periodic table called the periodic table
because of the periodic repetition
what is a group/family
verticale rows of the periodic table
have similar reactions
what is a period
a horizontal row in the periodic table
what are metal
- largest region
- conduct heat/electricity
- lustrous
-malleable
-ductile
what are metalloids
- have properties of metals and nonmetals
what are noble gases
group 8 elements
-exist in gaseous state at normal temp and are non reactive with other metals
what are alkali metals
group 1 elements
-highly reactive
what are alkaline metals
group 2 elements
