1

What is the definition of isotopes?

atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons

New cards
2

What is the average atomic mass an average of?

average of all naturally existing isotopes of an element

New cards
3

What are the mass of electrons, protons, and neutrons? Write in the format “electrons: X, protons: Y, neutrons: Z)

electrons: 0

protons: 1

neutrons: 1

New cards
4

What does the atomic numbers on the periodic table tell us?

number of protons and electrons

New cards
5

How do you calculate the number of neutrons on a periodic table?

Average atomic mass (rounded) - atomic number (# of protons)

New cards
6

What is the definition of atoms

smallest individual particle of one type of element

New cards
7

Atoms are _______ in charge

neutral

New cards
8

Atoms have the equal number of ______ and _______

protons, electrons

New cards
9

What do you call an atom that gained or lost electron?

ion

New cards
10

What is the definition of ions

an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons

New cards
11

What does an atom and an ion of the same element have in common?

same number of protons

New cards
12

What happens when an atom loses an electron and why?

becomes an cation because it is now positively charged

New cards
13

What happens when an atom gains an electron and why?

becomes an anion because it is now negatively charged

New cards
14

Outline what a molecule is and state 3 examples of molecules.

  • made of 2 or more atoms that are chemically bound (can be same or different elements)

  • O2, N2, H20 (can be other examples)

New cards
15

Outline what a compound is and state 3 examples of compounds.

  • made of 2 or more atoms of different elements that are connected by chemical bonds

  • all compounds are molecules (but not all molecules are compounds)

  • CO2, NaCl, MgO (can be other examples)

New cards
16

What is the definition of ionic compounds?

two or more ions that form ionic bonds which hold the ions together by the electrostatic forces of attraction

New cards
17

Describe the formation of ionic bonds.

  • Ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals when one atom transfers one or more electrons to another atom.

  • This transfer of electrons creates ions with opposite charges, one positively charged (cation) and one negatively charged (anion).

  • The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bond.

New cards
18

Fill in the blank: Metals are electron _______.

Outline the reason for your answer for the question above.

doners

because metals have lesser than 4 electrons in their valence shells so it is easier for them to donate/lose electrons to form a full valence shell

New cards
19

Fill in the blank: Non-metals are electron _______.

Outline the reason for your answer for the question above.

acceptors

because nonmetals have 4 or more electrons in their valence shells so it is easier for them to gain electrons to form a full octet/valence shell

New cards
20

Outline the trend for the reactivity of metals.

the periodic trend in reactivity of metals increases as you move to the left of the periodic table and down a group

New cards
21

Describe the reason of the periodic trend in reactivity of metals.

  • Metals with more energy levels have valence electrons that are further away from the nucleus, with weaker attraction.

  • They lose electrons more easily so they are more reactive as you go down the group.

  • Metals further to the right in the same period have more protons so there is a stronger attraction for valence electrons.

  • They lose electrons LESS easily and are LESS reactive.

New cards
22

Outline the trend in reactivity for non-metals.

reactivity increases as you move to the right of the period and up a group

New cards
23

Describe the reason of the periodic trend in reactivity of non-metals.

  • Non-metals with fewer energy levels have a shorter distance between the nucleus and the valence electrons, with stronger attractive force pulling the electrons

    → They gain electrons more readily and are more reactive as you go up the group

  • Non-metals further to the LEFT in the same

    period have fewer protons so there is a weaker attraction for valence electrons

    → They gain electrons LESS easily and are LESS reactive.

New cards
24

What is the number of the group where Alkali Metals are found on the periodic table?

Group 1

New cards
25

What is the number of the group where Alkaline earth metals are found on the periodic table?

Group 2

New cards
26

What is the number of the group where Halogens are found on the periodic table?

Group 17

New cards
27

What is the number of the group where Noble Gases are found on the periodic table?

Group 18

New cards
28

Why are noble gases not reactive?

Because it has a full valence shell already.

New cards
29

Why are alkali metals very reactive?

Because it only has to lose one electron to have a complete valence shell

New cards
30

Why are halogens very reactive?

because it only has to gain one electron in order to have a full octet

New cards
31

According to the periodic table, state the elements that are a metalloid.

boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium, polonium

or

B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po

New cards
32

Who made the solid sphere model? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it?

  • john dalton 1803

  • advantages: recognised that atoms of a particular element differ from other elements

  • disadvantages: atoms are not indivisible, it can be separated

New cards
33

Who made the plum pudding model? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it?

  • j.j thompson 1904

  • advantage: recognised electrons as components of atoms

  • disadvantage: this model does not show the nucleus

New cards
34

Who made the nuclear model? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it?

  • ernest rutherford 1911

  • advantage: realised positive charge was localised in the nucleus of an atom

  • disadvantage: did not explain why electrons remain in orbit around the nucleus

New cards
35

Who made the planetary model? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it?

  • niels bohr 1913

  • advantage: proposed stable electron orbits, explained emission spectra for some elements

  • disadvantage: moving electrons should emit energy and collapse into the nucleus, model did not work well for heavier atom'

New cards
36

Who made the quantum model? What are the advantages of it?

  • erwin schrodinger 1926

  • advantage: shows electrons don't move around the nucleus in orbits but in clouds where the position is uncertain, still widely accepted as the most accepted model of the atom

New cards
37

What model did j.j thompson make?

plum pudding model

New cards
38

What model did erwin schrodinger make?

quantum model

State 3 characteristics of metal.

  • shiny

  • good conductors of heat and electricity

  • malleable (able to be hammered or pressed into shape without breaking or cracking)

New cards
43

State 3 characteristics of non-metal.

  • poor conductors of heat and electricity

  • not malleable

  • not ductile (not able to be drawn out into a thin wire)

New cards
44

Heat is released

exothermic

New cards
45

heat is absorbed

endothermic

New cards
46

Electrical Conductivity

  • Electrical conductivity refers to a
    substance’s ability to conduct electrons, or
    its ability to allow electrons to move
    through it

  • Substances with high electrical
    conductivity will allow electrons to move
    through them with the least amount of
    resistance

New cards
47

Solution

A homogenous mixture of solute and
solvent

New cards
48

Solute

The substance that can be dissolved within
another substance

New cards
49

Solvent

The substance that can dissolve another
substance, present in larger amount
(commonly a liquid)

New cards
50

Electrolyte

Electrolytes are salts that dissolves in water and
produces ionized (charged) particles that are able
to conduct electricity.
