35
Q

What is relative mass and charge of a neutron

A

A relative mass of 1 and charge of 0

36

What does Mon mean (number of)

A

1 of something

38

1 Carbon + 1 Oxygen which is Carbon Monoxide

39
Q

A

Two of something

40

What it CO2

A

1 Carbon + 2 Oxygens = Carbon Dioxide

41
Q

What is a period row

A

The horzontial (left to right)

42
Q

What is a group row

A

The vertical(up and down)

43
Q

Explain what eveapration is

A

When a liquid turns into a gas

44
Q

What is condensation

A

When water vapour (gas) turns into water

45
Q

What is melting

A

It is when ice (solid) is heated and changes into water (liquid)

46
Q

What is freezing

A

If water (liquid) is cooled, it changes to ice (solid

47
Q

Name the four physical properties of a solid

A

Fixed volume,cannot be compressed,does not flow and high density

48
Q

Name the five physical properties of a liquid

A

Fixed volume,changes shape,cannot be compressed,flows eaily and high density

49
Q

Name the three correct physical properties of a gas

A

Changes shape,flows easily,low density

50
Q

Why cant a solid be compressed

A

A solid can’t be compressed because the space between each partical is too small

51
Q

Why can a gas be compressed

A

In a gas the particals are more spread out and can be pushed closer when squashed under pressure

52
Q

Why can a liquid flow

A

Liquids can flow due to not having a fixed shape or position.This means they can move past each other.

53
Q

Why can’t solids not flow

A

The particles in a solid are fixed,each partical can’t move past one another

54
Q

Why do lollies turn into liquids on a hot day

A

The tempratue increase causes the particles of the lolly gain energy from it’s surrounding which become displaced and cause it to vibrate rapidly then break and particles can then move.

55
Q

What is the radius of an atom

A

0.1

56
Q

Where is most of the mass in a atom

A

It’s in the centre

57
Q

Which of the following are compounds oxygen,salt water,magnesium oxide,sodium chloride,nitrogen

A

Magnesium oxide and sodium chloride

58
Q

What is the meaning of a compound

A

2 or more elements chemically joined

59

71
Q

Name a few gases

A

Argon,neon,xenon,radon

72
Q

Why are the noble gases so unreactive

A

Their outer shell is full of electrons

73
Q

What happens to the reactivness of an alkali the lower down the table you go

A

It increases

74
Q

Why do the numbers of electrons increase the further you go from an electron

A

They are futher from the nucleaus which means there is less pull on the outer electrons so the atom is mire likely to loose an electron

75
Q

Sodium + water= sodium hydroxide + hydrogen

A

2Na+ 2H2(small)O=2NaOH+H2(small)

76
Q

List 4 Halogens

A

Chlorine,fluorine,iodine,astantie

77
Q

How many electrons are in the outer shell

A

7 electrons

78
Q

Describe how reactivity changes as you go down the group

A

They become less reactive,the atom become larger because there are more electron shell that are futher from the nucleus so the pul of the neucleus is less.So the electron is likely to be gained as there is less of a positive pull
