Q

Father of the periodic table

A

Demetri Mendeleev

22

How did Mendeleev organize his periodic table?

A

in terms of the families of the known elements which displayed similar problems

23

24
Q

who did major differences to the periodic table?

A

Glenn seaborg

25
What did Glenn Seaborg do?
discovered elements 94-102
26
when was Seaborg awarded the nobel prize?
1951
27
what is element 106's name and why is it so?
seaborgium (Sg) named in glenn seaborg's honor
28
Transitional Metals
groups 3-12 large horizontal group between metals and non metals
29
how many groups and periods are there?
18 groups and 7 periods
30
what are the group's names?
group 1: alkaline metals group 2: alkaline earth metals group 17: halogens group 18: noble gases
31
what will you find in each block of an element?
- atomic mass - symbol - atomic number
32
calculate neutrons
atomic mass - atomic number
33
element
A substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances- pure
34
pure substances
- elements and compounds - can't be broken down into anything simpler - compounds consist of atoms of two or more different elements bound together and can be broken down into elements by chemical means but not physically. properties of compounds are different from component elements. they always contain same ration of its component atoms
35
compound
- A pure substance made of two or more elements chemically combined - can be broken down into simpler substances - when they form energy is released in the form of light and heat
36
mixture
A combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combined
37
heterogeneous
more than one mixture can be seen
38
homogenous
only one phase can be seen
39
name 7 separating mixtures
- by hand - filteration - distillation - chromatography - spectating funnel - evaporation - magnetism - electrolysis
40
distillation
A process that separates the substances in a solution based on their boiling points alcohol and water
41
chromatography
ink
42
magnetism
iron filing and sulphur powder
43
what are the 4 phases of matter?
solid, liquid, gas, plasma
44
what is the theory in which particles move?
the kinetic theory of matter
45
what does the particle model of matter state (5)
- all matter is made up of particles - particles are too small to see even with the strongest microscope - there are empty spaces between particles - particles are constantly moving. spontaneously on their own - forces of repulsion and attraction between particles
