THE BOHR-RUTHERFORD ATOM | IONS & ISOTOPES | ORGANIZING THE PERIODIC TABLE | TRENDS IN THE PERIODIC TABLE | IONIC COMPOUNDS |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is the nucleus
The centre of an atom, which is made of protons and neutrons
|
What are valence electrons
The type of electron found on the outer shell of an atom.
|
What is a group/family
A column on the periodic table
|
What are the noble gasses
This group/family on the periodic table have full valence shells, they will not react
|
What is a cation
When an atom loses an electron, it becomes this “paw”sitive ion.
|
What is
The sum of the # of protons and the # of neutrons
|
What is 2+
The charge of a Beryllium ion
|
What are the atomic numbers
On the periodic table, this numbering system counts how many protons are in an element
|
What are valence electrons
Elements in the same group/family of the periodic table share the same number of ______ ________
|
What is neutral
When forming an ionic bond, the two ions’ charges will cancel, making the compound _______?
|
What is the atomic mass
The relative mass of a neutron (give the unit)
|
What are their # of neutrons
Two isotopes of the same element will have this one difference
|
What is a metalloid
An element that is solid, shiny, and brittle
|
What are alkaline earth metals
The second most reactive group of elements on the periodic table
|
What is criss-cross
Compound formulas must be balanced in their atom count, this shortcut method helps you find the balance quickly
|
What is sodium
Given the following Bohr-Rutherford model, identify this element:
|
What is an ionic bond
This type of bond is formed by a metal and a nonmetal
|
What are metals, non-metals, and metalloids
The three main chemical groups in the Periodic Table
|
What are left and down
Atomic radius (the atom’s size) increases when you move _____ or ____ the periodic table
|
What is the non-metal anion
When naming an ionic compound, this part of the compound keeps just the first syllable of its name, and picks up the suffix “-ide”
|
What is the Gold Foil Experiment
In this famous experiment, Ernest Rutherford discovered that atoms are mostly made of empty space.
|
What is a chlorine anion
Given the following B-R model, identify this ion (be specific):
|
What is latin
When naming elements, some of their symbols are not based on English, but rather this language ancestor of Spanish & Italian
|
What is the element chlorine from the halogen family
This element, from this highly reactive family, is used to clean swimming pools and gives them their distinct smell (give both the element and family)
|
What is diatomic
Be careful when writing your skeleton equations! A pure gaseous element is always ________
