What are all substances made of
Atoms
What is the smallest part of an element that can exist?

what is the history of the atomic model
What is an element?
a substance Made up of one type of the same atom
what is an atom
an atom is the smallest part of an element that can exist
what is an isotope
Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons
how many isotopes does chlorine have
two
how are electrons arranged
they are arranged in shells around an atomic nucleas
what are properties of group 1 metals
there less dense and softer, they are much more reactive, they have lower melting points
do transition metals have a lower melting point then group 1 metals
no group 1s do
as you go down group one does the reactivity decrease or increase
the reactivity increases
as you got down group 1 does the melting and boiling point decrease or increase
the melting and boiling point DECREASE
as you go down group 1 does the relative atomic mass decrease or increase
the relative atomic mass increases
