Electron relative mass

What is proton number?
What are the other terms used interchangeably with it?
The number of protons in an element/compound
other terms
atomic number
Atomic number: Number of protons in an element/compound
Atomic Mass (Ar): Number of protons/electrons in an element
Molecular Mass (Mr): Number of protons/electrons in a compound/mixture
p.s. no such thing as molecular number
Nucleon number
Terms used interchangeably with it
Total number of protons and neutrons in an atom
Ar/Atomic Mass/Relative Molecular Mass
Octet configuration
8 valence electrons
alt. answer
8 electrons in valence shell
Duplet configuration
2 electrons in valence shell
A compound with the following ends:
-ate (e.g. nitrate)
-ide (e.g. nitride)
Which one has oxygen in chem. formula, which one dosen’t
ate - oxygen
ide - no oxygen
Match following keywords w/ number
tetra
mono

Chemical bond strength of force
very strong
Silver charge
Zinc charge
Silver
Ag +
Zinc
Zn 2+
Is the metal written in the front or the back in a chemical formulae
Front
E.g. NaCl (Na aka Sodium is from grp 1 so it is a metal)
No one puts ClNa, they put NaCl as Na is the metal
Define Mr Value
average mass
(isotopes of element)
compared
1/12th mass (1 atom C-12)
Which grp an atom belongs to?
+ Which grp is noble gas?
Metallic (<= 3 Valence)
G1, 2, 3
Non-metallic (>3 valence)
G (10 + Valence e-)
Noble gas
G18
Why is noble gas stable
full valence shell, cannot react with other atoms
Octet config not accepted. Helium is a duplet config yet it is stable
Valence electrons = outermost electrons
charge of bromine
Br-
is bromine a metal
is barium a metal
is sulfur a metal
bromine: nonmetal
barium: metal
sulfur: nonmetal
