Test 1 Flashcards
(30 cards)
atomic number
number of protons
electron number
atomic number
mass at neutral weight
protons and neutrons
the atomic mass
neutrons
mass number- atomic number
never a fraction or decimal
Bohrs Experiment Explained
Energy is given to gaseous atoms and causes the neg. electron to jump to higher energy levels
periodic Law
elements arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers
physical
hardness changed as we move across the table
chemical
reactivity with H2O or air
electron counts
increases by one across any period (left to right)
proton count
increases by one across any period (left to right)
neutron count
generally increase but the trend isn’t perfect
mass
generally increases as protons and neutrons are added
chemical reactivity
highest reactivity is at the start of any period then reactivity decreases. Reactivity begins to gradually increase until the extremely reactive halogens
Lewis Dot Diagrams
dots are drawn for valence
no shell shown, no protons, no neutrons
observation
a statement that is based on the 5 senses
inference
judgement or opinion based on observations
theoretical knowledge
knowledge based on ideas that are shared to explain observations
theory
an explanation of a large number of related observations
model
a representation of a theoretical concept
electron affinity
the amount of energy involved in gaining an electron
electronegativity
a chemical property that descibes the tendency of an atom or a functional group to attract electrons toward itself
electronegativity trends
increasing across a period
decreasing down a group
what is group 1 on the periodic table?
alkali metals
what is group 2 on the periodic table?
alkaline earth metals
what is group 7 on the periodic table?
halogens
what is group 8 on the periodic table?
noble gases
