Chapter 1- Chapter 3.5 Quiz 1 Flashcards
What is ductile ?
Ductile refer to materials ability to undergo significant deformation before rupture or fracture.
What is brittle ?
Brittle is material tendency to break or shatter with little deformation when subjected to stress.
What are metals ? Properties ?
Metal are composed of one or more metallic elements. Dense, stiff, strong and ductile. It is also good conductor of electricity and heat
What is an alloy ? Properties ?
Metal element matrix with few extra addition in low quantities. Designed to enhance properties of base metal such as strength, corrosion, conductivity or resistance
What is ceramic ? Properties ?
It is combination of metal and non-metal. Very hard, strong, abrasion resistant but brittle. Poor thermal conductor. Example would oxidizes, carbides, nitrides, brodies
What is polymer ? Properties ?
Include the familiar plastic and rubber materials. Many of them are organic compounds that are chemically based on carbon, hydrogen and other nonmetallic element. Low in density however degrade under UV.
What are composite? Properties ?
Combination of metal, ceramic and polymer. Used in material engineering and design to target certain specific properties. Goal is to incorporate best characteristics of both materials.
What is atom ?
Atom consist of small nucleus composed of protons and neutrons which is encircled by moving electrons.
What is atomic number ?
Atomic number is equal to number of protons in nucleus
What is neutral atom ?
When protons are equal to electrons.
When is element ions and name them?
Cations when protons are more than electrons (loses electrons ).
Anions when electrons are more than protons( gaining electrons ).
What’s an isotopes ?
Isotopes are different forms of same element that have same number of protons but different number of electrons in their atomic nuclei.
What’s an isotopes ?
Isotopes are different forms of same element that have same number of protons but different number of electrons in their atomic nuclei. This result in them having different atomic mass.
What is atomic weight ?
Atomic weight of an element corresponds to the weighted average of atomic masses of atoms naturally occurring isotopes.
What is unit of atomic weight ?
Atomic mass unit (amu).
What is formula for calculating atomic mass ?
Atomic mass = number of protons + neutrons.
Can rearrange the equation to find protons and neutrons however round up the atomic weight to nearest integer to do this calculations.
How many quantum numbers are there and what to they represent ?
4 atomic number used for size, shape , n which describes energy level “ size “, L which describes the shape of the orbital, Ml which describes the orientation of the orbital and Ms describes the intrinsic spin of the electron.
What is “n”?
It is principal quantum number that describes the shell or (energy level) in which electrons are located. It only takes in integer values. Sometimes these shells are designated by letters K,L,M,N,O and so on which corresponds to n=1,2,3,4…..
What is “L” ?
The azimuthal number L. It describes the subshell or shape of the orbital. The formula to calculate L =(n-1).
Value of L corresponds to specific orbital.
L=0= s orbital
L=1= p orbital
L=2 = d orbital
L=3= f orbital
What is Ml ?
Magnetic quantum number describes number of orbital for each subshell. It can take on integer values from -L < Ml < L.
How many orbital each s has and how many electrons it can have ?
S- orbital ( L =0 )
N number minimum of at least 1 because L = n-1 formula. After one all energy levels can have s orbital n=1,2,3,4.. . Number of orbital are described by the Ml number from -L< Ml< L. S has 1 orbitals due L =0.
Therefore, it can only have 2 electrons.
How many orbital does each p have and how many electrons it can have ?
P orbital ( L=1) it has minimum value of n =2 and can exist in all energy after n=2. Number of orbital are described by the Ml number from -L< Ml< L. P has 3 orbitals due L =1 which makes ml = -1,0,1
Therefore, it can only have 6 electrons.
How many orbital does each D have and how many electrons it can have ?
D orbital ( L=2) it has minimum value of n =3 and can exist in all energy after n=3. Number of orbital are described by the Ml number from -L< Ml< L. D has 5 orbitals due L =2 which makes ml = -2,-1,0,1,2
Therefore, it can only have 10 electrons.
