Q

What’s does it mean when atoms are neutral?

A

They have no overall charge
(Same number of protons as electrons since charge is opposite they cancel each other out)

Q

What are compounds?

A

Substances formed from two or more elements which are chemically bonded together and are very hard to separate can only do it by a chemical reaction

20
Q

Does an element loose it’s properties becoming a compound?

A

They do, the properties of a compound are different from the properties of its original element

21
Q

Is the nuclei affected when a bond is made?

A

No

22
Q

Is a compound that’s made from metals and non metals a positive or negative ion?

A

The metal atoms loose electrons to become positively charged ions
Non metals gain electrons to become negatively charged ions

23
Q

What’s ionic bonding?

A

When a metal and non metal react together to loose or gain electrons.These oppositely charged ions are strongly attracted to one another by electrostatic force this attraction is called ionic bond.They do this to have a full outer shell

24
Q

Whats covalent bonding?

A

When non metal atoms bond together by sharing electrons to achieve a full outer shell

25
Q

What’s the symbol for the following:
-carbon dioxide
-ammonia
-water
-sodium chloride
-carbon monoxide
-hydrochloric acid
-calcium chloride
-sodium carbonate
-sulfuric acid

A

-CO2
-NH3
-H2O
-NaCL
-CO
-HCL
-CaCl2
-Na2SO4
-H2SO4

26
Q

Practical for separation chromatography:

A

1)Draw a line near the bottom of the filter paper use pencil because pen is insoluble and will dissolve in water)
2)Add a spot of ink ton the line and place the sheet in a beaker of solvent e.g water
3)The solvent depends on what’s being texted some compounds dissolve well in water
4)Place a lid on top of the beaker so that the solvent doesn’t dissolve
5)The dyes have a different solubility meaning the most soluble will be at the top of the paper and the one on the line is insoluble

27
Q

Filtration spreading insoluble solids form liquids:

A

Supersets insoluble solids from liquids:
-pour solution into filer paper
-then beaker will have pure substance
-the filter paper has the residue
This can be used for any purifications e.g solid impurities

28
Q

Two ways to separate soluble solids from solutions?

A

Evaporation and crystallisation

29
Q

Describe evaporation:

A

-pour the solution into an evaporating dish
-slowly heat the solution.The solvent will evaporate and the solution will get more concentrated.Eventually crystals will start to form
-keep heating the evaporation sun until you have left are dry crystals

30
Q

Why may evaporation not work sometimes?

A

It’s a really quick way of separating soluble slag from a solution but the salt may decompose (break down) when its heated

31
Q

What’s another way to separate soluble solids from solutions?

A

Crystallisation

32
Q

Describe crystallisation:

A

-pour the solution into an evaporating dish and gently heat the solution.Some of the solvent will evaporate and the solution will get more concentrated
-once some of the solvent has evaporated or when u can see crystals start to from (the point of crystallisation) remove the dish from the heat and leave the solution to cool
-the slat should start to from crystals as it becomes insoluble in the cold , highly concentrated solution
-filter the crystals out of the solution and leave them to dry

33
Q

Filtration and crystallisation can be used to separate rock salt how does it work?

A

Rock salt is simply a solution of salt and rock:
-grind the mixture to make sure the salt crystals are small so that they dissolve in the water
-put the mixture into water the salt will dissolve the sand won’t
-filter the mixture only the salt in water will pass through
-use either evaporation or crystallisation to form dry crystals

34
Q

Distillation and fractional

A

Check page 102

35
Q

History of atom

A

Check page 103

36
Q

Electronic configuration

A

2,8,8

37
Q

Why do elements what a full outer shell like group 0?

A

They will be stable and won’t react

38
Q

Group 1 are also called?

A

Alkali metals

39
Q

Describe group 1:

A

-their reactivity increases as they go down the group because they are further away from the nucleus meaning they have a weaker attraction and can easily loose electrons and become reactive
-have a low melting and boiling point
-higher relative atomic mass

40
Q

Group 7 is also called?

A

Halogens

41
Q

Describe group 7:

A

-decrease in reactivity as they go down the group because they are further away from the nucleus meaning they have a weaker attraction and it’s harder to gain electrons
-high melting and boiling point
-higher relative atomic mass

42
Q

Group 0/8 is called ?

A

Noble gasses

43
Q

Why do they not react?

A

They don’t react because they have a full outer shell

44
Q

Describe group 0:

A

The boiling points increase as u go down the group as well as the relative atomic mass
- the increase in boiling point is due to an increase in the number of electrons in each atom leading to greater intermolecular forces between them which need to be overcome this

45
Q

Anything else about group 1,7,0

A

Metals, non metals and non metal
