Q

What’s a period

A

A horizontal row in the periodic table. All element s in the same row have the same number of shells for there electrons to orbit.

Q

What is a group/family

A

The vertical lines in the periodic table. All elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons. It also tells us what kind of ion it will form

Q

What’s the importance of groups and periods.

A

They are important because they help organize the elements into similar families which helps us be able to predict what elements will bond and react with other elements.

Q

Explain how fluorine is more reactive then bromine.

A

Fluorine is more reactive then bromine because it takes less energy for fluorine to gain one electron. This is because fluorine has less shells that get in the way of its positive nucleus from attracting one electron.

Q

Explain how cesium is more reactive then sodium.

A

Cesium is more reactive then sodium because it has more shells in the way of the nucleus from attracting the valence electron. Becuase of this cesium so one electron can easily move away and react with other atoms.

Q

Explain how ionic compounds are formed

A

Ionic compounds are formed when a metal cation and a non metal anion are attracted because of their opposite charges and Bond together held by their attraction.

nacl

17
Q

How are Molecular compounds formed

A

When 2 non metals are joined by a covalent bond (sharing of their electrons)to form a bond to fill valence shells.

H2O

18
Q

Electrolyte

A

A substance that when dissolved in water forms a solution containing electricity.

19
Q

Binary

Q

Diatomic molecules

A

Are molecules formed by elements that always travel in pairs when alone.

H O F Br I N Cl

22
Q

2 characteristics of a ionic compound

A

High melting point

Contain electricity

23
Q

2 characteristics of a molecular compound

A

Low melting point

24
Q

What is the left side of a equation called

25
What is the right side of an equation called
Product
26
Classical system includes.......
Suffixes like ic and ous that determine charge of transition metals
27
Stock system includes..... Why is it better?
Uses Roman numerals to show charge No memorization
28
Why do we still need to know the classical system
Because some medicine still use the suffixes on their labels and we want to know what we are taking
29
3 parts of the WHMIS legislation
All controlled products must have labels in French and English All controlled products must come with a material safety data sheet Any person working with controlled products must complete an educational program provided by employer
30
Abbreviation for a solution
Aq
31
Symptoms of low iron levels
Weakness, fatigue and pale skin
32
When do you use crossover method
With ionic compounds
33
When do you'd use prefixes
With molecular compounds
34
When do you need to check before you multiply
When dealing with transition metals
35
What was lavoisier's law Called and what does it mean?
Lavoisier's law is Called the law of conservation of mass During a chemical reaction the total mass of the reacting substances is always equal to the total mass of the products. Mass before = mass after
