Unit 4 Test Flashcards
(125 cards)
describe groups
- columns
- tell # val. e-
- 18 of them
describe periods
- rows
- 7 of them
- Principal QNs
- relates to energy levels (tells # of them & energy for val. e-)
- length varies (related to sublevels)
what are group 1 elements called?
alkali metals
what are group 2 elements called?
alkaline earth metals
what are group 17 elements called?
halogens
what are group 18 elements called?
noble gases
what are groups 3-12 called?
Transition Elements
what affects the amount of control?
distance from nucleus
if an e- is closer to nucleus…
more control over e-
if an e- is farther from nucleus…
not as much control over e-
what is the PT?
an arrangement of the elements in order of their atomic #s so that elements w/ similar prop. fall in the same column/group
what is the periodicity of periods?
nuclear control becomes greater from left to right
why is there an increase in nuclear control L to R across a period?
more p+ in nucleus (e- remain insignificant), so more control
what is the periodicity of groups?
nuclear control = greater at the top of group
why is there greater nuclear control at the top of a group?
closer to nucleus in lower energy levels
what did Berzelius do?
developed system of chem. symbols to represent elements [using some rather interesting symbols]
what language did Berzelius use for his system of chem. symbols?
used LATIN name
what was part of Berzelius’s original system?
used 1 letter for nonmetals & 2 letters for metals
is Berzelius’s # letters naming system still in place?
no, now elements are usually named after people/places
what did Cannizzaro do?
developed method to accurately determine the atomic mass of elements
when were Berzelius & Cannizzaro doing their stuff?
1800s
what did Mendeleev do?
published 1st PT in 1869
when Mendeleev published the 1st PT, was any part of the atom discovered yet & what part?
have not found any part of atom yet
how did Mendeleev organize his PT?
put elements into table by increasing ATOMIC MASS
