Chapter 2- Groups

Question 1

What is group 8 properties?

What is the group called?

Answer 1

Non- reactive, gases, odourless, colourless, low boiling point, boiling points increase as you go down the group, low density
Noble Gases

Question 2

What are the elements in group 1 called?

Properties:

Answer 2

Alkali metals
As you go down the group reactivity increases, low melting and boiling points, low density, very soft metals, get softer as you go down the groups.

Question 3

What are the elements in group 7 called?

Properties:

Answer 3

Halogens

Gets less reactive as you go down the group, low melting and boiling points, darker colour as you go down the group.

Question 4

Where are the transition metals found?

Properties:

Answer 4

The transition metals are found in the centre of the periodic table, they include the most known metals.
Hard and dense, high melting and boiling points, form good compounds, good conductors of heat and electricity , they form coloured compounds and ions
