Q

Henry Moselev changed what problem on the periodic table?

A

He found that if elements were listed in increasing atomic number, columns would contain elements with similar properties.

Q

What can you learn about elements from the periodic table?

A

The periodic table shows how elements and their properties relate to each other. So we can use these patterns of properties to predict the properties of new elements.

Q

Sodium is in Group 1 of the periodic table. Sodium atoms readily form bonds with other atoms, which statement best explains this theory?

A

Valence electron

24
Q

Chemical bond formed when two atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons.

A

Covalent bonds

25
Two or more atoms that are held together by covalent bonds and act as a unit.
Molecules
26
A molecule with a slight negative charge in one area, and a slight positive charge in another.
Polar molecule
27
An atom that is no,longer neutral because it has gained or lost valence electrons
Ion
28
The attraction between positively and negatively charged ions in an ionic bond.
Ionic compound
29
A bond formed when many metal atoms share their pooled valence electrons
Metallic bond
30
Type of chemical reaction in which two or more substances combine and form one compound.
Synthesis
31
One compound breaks down and forms two or more substances.
Decomposition.
32
One element replaces another in a compound.
Single-replacement reaction.
33
Negative ions in two compounds switch places, forming two new compounds.
Double-replacement reaction
34
A chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen and releases energy.
Combustion
