Chapter #13 - The Periodic Table Flashcards
forgot unit number and name
What is similar in the electron configuration of group 1 metals?
They all lose one electron.
What are the observations of Li at room temp?
Grey solid (stored in oil to prevent reaction with oxygen and water).
What are the observations of Li with water?
- Effervescing
- Li disappears
- temp. increase
- floats and moves on surface
- Produces colorless solution
What are the observations of Na at room temp.?
Shiny silver soft solid. (Like a block of cheddar)
What are the observations of Na with water?
- Effervescing
- Na disappears
- Temp. increase
- Floats and moves on surface
- Produces colorless solution
- Melts and forms a sphere
- If prevented from moving, ignites with yellow/orange flame.
What are the observations of K at room temp.?
Very easy to cut (soft), grey solid, when cut, inside shiny.
What are the observations of K with water?
- effervescing
- K disappears
- Temp. increases
- Floats and moves on surface
- produces colorless solution.
- Melts and forms a sphere
- Ignites with lilac flame
Which way are group 1 metals more reactive?
The group 1 metals become more reactive descending the group.
why are group 1 metals more reactive descending the group?
Because the outer electron is further from the nucleus. therefor, there is weaker electrostatic force of attraction, less energy is needed to remove the outer electron.
What reactivity depend on in metals?
Their ease to lose an electrons.
What way do group one metals have a higher mpt.?
The mpt. of group 1 metals increases while going up the group.
What is the density of group 1 metals?
All group 1 metals have low densities.
What color and state of matter are ALL group 1 compounds?
They are ALL white solids.
What are the observations of lithium chloride in water?
dissolves (not much)
What are the observations of sodium carbonate with water?
dissolves (not much)
What are the observations of potassium chloride with water?
dissolves (not much)
What are the observations of lithium chloride when it reacts with oxygen (with flame)
Makes red flame (does not melt)
What are the observations of sodium carbonate when it reacts with oxygen (with flame)?
Makes a orange/yellow flame
What are the observations of potassium chloride when it reacts with oxygen (with flame)?
Makes a lilac flame.
What are group 1 metals called?
alkalimetals
What are three things group 1 metal compounds have in common?
- White solids
- Produce colorless solution (with water)
- Soluble in water
What are group 7 elements called?
Halogens
What elements are diatomic?
Halogens
What does diatomic mean?
The elements exist in pairs (X2)
What colors is fluorine in its viable states? What is its standard form?
Solid: X
Liquid: X
Gas: pale yellow*
(aq): colorless
What colors is chlorine in its viable states? What is its standard form?
Solid: X
Liquid: X
Gas: pale green*
(aq): pale yellow
What colors is bromine in its viable states? What is its standard form?
Solid: X
Liquid: red/brown*
Gas: orange
(aq): orange
What colors is iodine in its viable states? What is its standard form?
Solid: grey*
Liquid: X
Gas: purple
(aq): orange/brown
What way do group 7 non-metals have a higher mpt. and why is this?
Group 7 metals have a higher mpt. going down. This is because the atom (and molecules) increase in size. Therefore there are more IMFs so more energy is required to break them apart.
What is test 1 and test 2 for chlorine?
Test 1: damp blue litmus => red =>white
Test 2: add hexane => colorless
What is test 1 and test 2 for bromine?
Test 1 => damp blue litmus => red => white (but slower than chlorine)
Test 2 => add hexane => orange
What is test 1 and test 2 for iodine?
Test 1: add starch => blue/black
Test 2: add hexane => pink
What happens to the colors in group 7 moving down?
They get darker.
What is the explanation for test 1 (damp blue litmus paper)of chlorine?
Cl2 + H2O => HCl + HOCl
HCL= Hydrochloric acid (red)
HOCl => chloric acid (bleach)
What is the explanation for test 1(damp blue litmus paper) of bromine?
Br2 + H2O => HBr + HOBr
HBr = hydrobromic acid
HOBr = bromic acid
What is the reaction of chlorine with iron?
What are the states of matter and color of each substance?
What happens as the reaction occurs?
iron + chlorine => iron (III) chloride
2Fe + 3Cl2 => 2FeCl3
Glows red as reaction happens
Fe= grey solid
Cl2= green gas
FeCl3 = brown solid
