dissociation
soluble ionic compounds will dissociate into separate ions when they are put in water
KCl(s) > K(aq) + Cl(aq)
acid + hydroxide (base) >
salt + water
acid + oxide (base) >
salt + water
acid + metal >
salt + hydrogen
acid + carbonate >
salt + carbon dioxide gas + water
acid + hydrogen carbonate >
salt + carbon dioxide gas +water
physical properties of group 1
- soft
- malleable
- greyish, silver
physical properties of group 17
- low boiling and melting points
- low density
- all 3 states of matter at room temp
group 1 metals form an ion with +1 charge
loss 1 electron leaving a positive charge ion
group 17 metals form an ion with -1 charge
gain 1 electron to complete the outer shell leaving a negatively charge ion
correct labelling of an element
A (mass no.)
X (element)
Z (atomic no.)
group
same no. of valance electron in every group
period
same no. of shells
reactivity changes as you go down group 1
- as you go down G1, the element becomes more and more reactive because they have to loose 1 electron
- that electron is further from the positively charged nucleus, therefore the attraction on the electron from the nucleus is weaker and so is more easily lost.
reactivity changes as you go down group 17
- as you go down G17, the elements reactivity decreases because they only have to gain 1 electron
- As you go down the group, the attraction from the nucleus to the outermost electrons gets weaker, so it is harder to pull in the extra electron.
