Q

What is the atomic theory?

A
  • All matter are made up of atoms.
  • All atoms of an element have identical chemical and physical properties.
  • Atoms of different elements have different sets of chemical and physical properties.

A

Halogens

34
Q

These lack one electron on their outer shell which they try to acquire from other atoms, thus they usually have a charge of -1.

A

Halogens

35
Q

These usually forms compounds with alkali metals.

A

Halogens

36
Q

These are also called inert gases.

A

Noble Gases

37
Q

These gases are unreactive, very stable elements owing to their full outer shell of eight electrons.

A

Noble Gases

38
Q

These have both metallic and non-metallic properties.

46
Q

What rule can be used to explain the reactivities and properties of elements?

A

Octet Rule

47
Q

This states that elements gain or lose electrons so that they will have the same number as the nearest noble gas.

A

Octet Rule

48
Q

What is a charged atom?

A

Anion

51
Q

These ions are positively-charged and has loss in electrons. There are more protons than electrons here.

A

Cation

52
Q

This is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom.

A

Ionization Energy

53
Q

This is the energy released when an electron is added to an atom.

A

Electron Affinity

54
Q

This is the ability to attract electrons.

Q

What increases downwards within a column(family) in the periodic table?

A

Atomic Size

56
Q

This decreases from left to right in the periodic table?

A

Atomic Size

57
Q

This is the number of “excess” electrons of an atom.
