Q

What are all substances made of?

A

All substances are made of atoms, a substance that is made of only on sort of atom is called an element. These are shown in the periodic table of elements.

Q

How do you get the atomic mass number of an element?

A

You add the number of protons to neutrons

12
Q

If there was an element in group 3 how many electrons would it have?

A

5, two in the inner shell and three in the outer shell but all the electrons that dont fill up a shell determine what group the element is in

13
Q

What happens when elements react?

A

When elements react their atoms join together with other atoms to form compounds, this involves giving, taking or sharing electrons to form ions or molecules

14
Q

How do non metals become positive ion’s?

A

They loose electrons

15
Q

How do non metals become negative ion’s?

A

By gaining electrons

16
Q

What do ion’s always have?

A

A full outer shell

17
Q

What do compounds formed from non metals consist of?

A

molecules in which the atoms are held together with covalent bonds

18
Q

Are atoms lost during a chemical reaction

A

No
