(39 cards)
Atom
Smallest unit of an element that retains the properties of that element
Protons
P+, determine the type of atom, +1 charge, 1 amu, inside nucleus, 1 relative mass
Neutrons
n0, change mass in isotopes, 0 charge, 1 amu, inside nucleus, 1 relative mass
Electrons
e-, changes charge for ions, -1 charge, 0 amu, outside nucleus, 1/840 relative mass
Nucleus
Contains almost all the mass of an atom
Electron Cloud
Contains almost all the volume of an atom
Atoms are Measured in
Picometers or 10^-12 meters
Density of Nucleus
Huge
Elements Are
Atoms with the same number of protons, or same atomic number
Atomic Number is Represented By
Z = #p
Hyphen Notation
Element, hyphen, mass number
Charge
Protons minus electrons or
Electrons are Arranged in
Energy levels called shells or orbits
Formula for Bohr Model
2n^2 when n=the shell number
Valence Electrons
Electrons found on the farthest energy level of an atom
Columns in Periodic Table
Also called groups or families, the number of valence electrons
Rows in Periodic Table
Also called periods, the number of energy levels
Phil Model
2, 8, 8, 2 for amount of electrons in energy levels
Duet
Only applies to helium, lithium, hydrogen, and beryllium (he has little booty)
Octet
Electrons are most stable in groups of eight
Atomic Number
Number of protons, number of electrons in a neutral atom
Mass Number
Sum of protons and neutrons
Nuclear/Isotopic Symbol
Mass number on top, atomic number is bottom
Finding Counts
Protons is bottom, electrons is bottom, neutrons is top minus bottom
