What is the periodic table?
Contains element's name, atomic mass and properties
|
What is a gaseous state?
The state of matter in which a material has neither a definite shape nor a definite volume
|
What is scientific notation?
Written in the form M x 10n where M is a number greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10
|
What is the Law of Conservation of Mass?
Mass is neither created nor destroyed during ordinary chemical or physical change.
|
What is the magnetic quantum number of the p orbital?
3 orientations (x, y, and z)
|
What is periodic law?
The principle that states that the physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers

|
Who is Rutherford?
Fired positively charged particles at metal foil and concluded that most of the mass of an atom was concentrated in the nucleus
|
What is Hund's rule?
States that orbitals of equal energy are occupied by one electron before any orbital is occupied by a second electron, and all electrons in singly occupied orbitals must have the same spin
