Q

1911, Rutherford created what model of the atom and what was it described as

A

The nuclear model

a positively charged nucleus in the centre where most of the atom mass was concentrated

Q

1913, What scientist agreed/complemented Rutherford 1911 discovery and how

A

Niels Bohr
he said the electrons orbited the positively charged nucleus at specific distances -
he said a fixed amount of energy was required for electrons to move from one orbit to the next

13
Q

why is there an equal amount of protons and electrons in an atom

A

because they are oppositely charged and the atom must be neutral(for it to not be an ion) they must cancel each other out

Q

give an example of working out the number of protons and neutrons with the mass number
23
11 C

A
atomic number=11
mass number=23
23-11=12
12 neutrons 
11 protons and electrons

Q

what are isotopes

A

a form of an atom with a different mass number due to a change in neutrons

16
Q

why can isotopes not be a change in electrons or protons

A

isotopes are a change in mass number-electrons have no mass
because it will change the charge therefore it is no longer the same atom(change in protons) or it becomes an ion(change in electrons)

17
Q

what is the equation for relative atomic mass

A

Ar= (mass of first isotope x % of first isotope) + (mass of 2nd isotope x % of 2nd isotope)

18
Q

Name the group 7 elements

What are they called

A

(F)Fluorine, (Cl)Chlorine, (Br) Bromine, (I) Iodine, (At)Astaline
Halogens

19
Q

what are halogens

A

group 7
non metals that exist as pairs of atoms
(F2, Br2, Cl2, I2)

20
Q

how do you balance an equation

balance MG+O2-> MGO

A

have an equal amount of products as reactants

2MG+O2->2MGO

21
Q

what is the relationship between atomic mass and relative molecular mass

A

RMM is double the AM

22
Q

as molecular mass increases, what else increases?

A

BP and MP

23
Q

if MP and BP are both negative what is the state of the halogen at room temp?
if MP is negative and BP is positive(vice versa)?
if MP and BP are both positive?

A

Gas
Liquid
Solid

24
Q

as you go down group 7 how does the reactivity change?

A

it decreases

25
Q

if a halogen is bubbled through a solution of metal halides what happens

A

a displacement reaction where the more reactive halogen replaces the less reactive or no reaction

26
Q

what is a displacement reaction

give an example

A

a reaction where an atom replaces a another atom in a molecule
bromine replaces iodine from iodide solutions as it is more reactive - Br2 + 2KI-> 2KBr+I2

27
Q

What is the overall charge of the atoms nucleus

A

Positive

28
Q

name the 3 sub atomic particles

A

proton, neutron, electron

29
Q

around the atom, electrons are found in fixed _____

A

orbits

30
Q

what experiment did rutherford carry out in 1911

A

he shot alpha particles at gold foil and found some went through and others reflected back

31
Q

how was the periodic table developed in 1869

A

A scientist named mendeleev took all of the known elements and ordered them by atomic weight but left gaps for elements he did not know of yet

32
Q

group 1 metal properties

A
more reactive as you go down the column
1 electron in their outer shell
all soft 
low density 
the MP AND BP get lower
Relative atomic mass gets higher
33
Q

explain the difference between a subscript and a coefficient

A

the subscript says how many atoms of the element are in that molecule
the coefficient entails how many of that molecule there are

34
Q

group 0 are known as?

A

noble gases

35
Q

properties of noble gases

A

the relative atomic masses increase as you go down them
inert
stable full outer shell
colourless gases at room temp

36
Q

halogen ions are called

A

halides

37
Q

group one metals are called?

A

alkali metals
