How much of hydrogen is deutrium?
0.02%
What is Deuterium used for?
Nuclear Fusion
What is Tritium used for?

Why are Noble gases used in light bulbs?
Because they do not react with the hot metal filament
What change did Mendeleev make?
He left gaps in the Periodic table for undiscovered elements which made sure the discovered elements were in the right place
How did Mendeleev order the elements?
By their relative atomic mass (RAM)
What are Diatomic molecules?
Molecules made up of pairs of atoms
Eg Cl 2
What are formed when metals and non-metals react?
Ionic compound
All ions have a full outer shell
Properties of Noble gases
Colourless
Low density
Low boiling points
Inert
Monatomic
Properties of halogens
Form salts
Get less reactive as you go down the group
Diatomic molecules
