Chemistry Flashcards
what is the difference between an element, compound and a mixtrue
an element is only one element wheather a compound is multiple elements chemicaly bonded and a mixture is multiple elements that don’t bond
what is the key to balancing equation:
same number of elements in the reactants as the products for example
2H02-> 2h+ 2O
what are four types of seperation meathods
chromotography, distalation. evaporation. filtration.
rember cdef
what is distillation
when something is boiled and then cooled to seperate the mixture
what is the plum pudding model
a ball of positive charge with negative electrons embedded into it.
how was the nucelaus discovered.
when firing alpha particles at a thin piece of gold the particles should not go through it meaning that the has to be a negative charge on the outside
what is the charge of a proton, neutron and an electron
an electron is negative
a proton is positive and a neutron is netural with no charge
what is the charge of a proton, neutron and an electron
an electron is negative
a proton is positive and a neutron is netural with no charge
how to work out amount of protons electrons and neutrons
for electrons and protons it is the mass number unless it is an ion showing the charge in which case add if it says minus 4 charge then add to the the atomic number and the same for if it says negative then add to the atomic number
for protons it is always the atomic number
and for neutrons it is the total mass - the atomic number
what is an ion and isotope
an ion is when an atom has a different amount of electrons than protons
isotopes are when an atom has a different number of neutrons
how many electrons can be in the first three shells
2 in the first 8 in the next and again 8 in the next
which group has no reactions and why
group zero/8 because all have a full shell which means the atom does not have the urge to complete its shell as it is already complete. this applies to all except helium.
who invented the periodic table
Mendeleev
how did he do it when not all elements were discovered
he left gaps for them so that he could be able to
group zero has what properties
it is stable and has 8 electrons in its shell and are called the noble gases:
