Q

What is the law of conservation of mass?

A

The law of conservation of mass states that the total mass of products = total mass of reactants

18
Q

What is the 1897 plum pudding model?

A

The 1897 plum pudding model showed that an atom must contain small negative charges, which resulted in the discovery of electrons. It showed a ball of positive charge with negative electrons embedded in it

19
Q

Who discovered the plum pudding model?

A

The plum pudding model was discovered by JJ Thompson

20
Q

What is Rutherford’s scattering experiment?

A

Rutherford’s scattering experiment showed that alpha particles passed right through the foil, whereas the positive particles were deflected by the positive nucleus. This showed that the mass was concentrated at the centre of the atom.

21
Q

What did James Chadwick discover?

A

James Chadwick provided the evidence to show the existence of neutrons within the nucleus

22
Q

What did the 1909 nucleus model show?

A

The 1909 nuclear model showed that there is a positively charged nucleus at the centre which is surrounded by negative electrons

23
Q

What did the 1913 Bohr model show?

A

The 1913 Bohr model showed that electrons orbit the nucleus at specific distances in fixed shells

24
Q

Where are the metals located on the periodic table?

A

The metals are to the left of the periodic table

25
Q

Where are the non-metals located on the periodic table?

A

The non-metals are located to the right of the periodic table

26
Q

What are the characteristics of metals?

A

Metals form positive ions, they are good electrical conductors, high melting and boiling points, ductile, malleable

27
Q

What are the characteristics of non-metals?

A

The characteristics of non-metals include good insulators, low melting and boiling points

28
Q

How does the reactivity change for halogens in the periodic table?

A

For halogens, the reactivity decreases down the group as there will be an increasing proton number meaning an electron is more easily gained

29
Q

How do the melting and boiling points change for halogens in the periodic table?

A

The melting and boiling points increase down the group for halogens in the periodic table as the mass number increases

30
Q

Are noble gases reactive or non-reactive?

A

Noble gases are unreactive as they have full outer shells

31
Q

How do the boiling points change for noble gases in the periodic table?

A

In the periodic table, the boiling points increase down the group for noble gases due to their increasing atomic number

32
Q

What are the differences between transition metals to group 1?

A

Transmition metals are less reactive, harder, denser and have higher melting points

33
Q

What are the properties of transition metals?

A

Transition metals have many different ion possibilities with different charges, they are used as catalysts, and form coloured compounds

34
Q

Metal + Oxygen -> ?

A

Metal + Oxygen -> Metal Oxide

35
Q

Metal + Water -> ?

A

Metal + Water > Metal Hydroxide + Hydrogen

36
Q

Metals + Chlorine -> ?

A

Metal + Chlorine -> Metal Chloride

37
Q

What are the propertes of alkali metals?

A

Alkali metals are very reactive with oxygen, water and chlorine as they only have one 1 electron in their outer shell ( formin +1 positive ions), their reactivity increases down the group as the negative outer electron is further away from the positive nucleus so more is easily lost

38
Q

How were elements arranged before the discovery of protons, neutrons and electrons?

A

Before the discovery of protons, neutrons and electrons, elements were arranged in order of their atomic weight

39
Q

Why are elements arranged in groups?

A

Elements are arranged in groups as they have similar properties and have the same number of outer shell electrons

40
Q

Why are elements arranged in periods?

A

Elements arranged in periods have the same number of electron shells
