Q

What is an atom

A

The smallest part of a chemical element is an atom.
The word atom comes from the Greek word atomos meaning indivisble.
With new discoveries and prgressive scientific experiments, the concept of an atom has changed overtime.
Atomic theory is the study of the nature of atoms and how they combine to form all types of matter.
An understanding of atoms and their structure can help us predict many of the properties of matter.

Q

The periodic table
2 points

A

The periodic table is organized by Periodic law

The chemical and physical properties of the elements recur periodically when the elements are arranged and organized in order of increasing atomic number

29
Q

Dmirtir Medeleeve
How his worked
Problems

A

HHW:
Put elements in rows by increasing atomic weight

put elements in columns by the way they reacted

P:
He left blank spaces for undiscovered elements

He broke the pattern of increasing atomic weight to keep similar reating elements together

30
Q

Our version of the PT
3 points

A

Now elements are put into rows by increasing atomic number, each box represents an element. The abbreviation shown in the box for each element is called its atomic symbol

31

Right
Staircase

32
Q

Physical properties of metal

A

Malleable, ductile, lustrous, good conductors of heat and electricity. Solid (liquid mercury)

33
Q

Physical properties of non metals

A

Brittle, not ductile, dull, poor conductors of heat and electirciy, cand be solid or gasses and bomine is a liquid

34
Q

How to draw Bohr Rutherford

A
  1. Determine number of protns neutrons and electons,
  2. Place protons and neutrons in the nucleus
  3. Draw shells around nucleus
  4. Fill shells with 2,8,8,2 pattern
35
Q

How to draw Lewis-Dot diagrams

A
  1. Write the element symbol
  2. Determine the number of valence electrons (group #)
  3. Draw the valence electrons aroound the symbol
36
Q

Group 1: Alkalai Metals Properties

A

Very reactive always combined with something else in nature. Highly reactive to air and water.
Soft enought to cut with a knife
Lustrous silver in colour
Low density

37
Q

Group 2 Alkaline Earth Metals Properties

A

Reactive metals that are always combined with non-metals in nature, not as reactive as group 1. Reactive in hot water
Burn Brightly
Hard, shiny and silvery
Serveral are important mineral nutrients

38
Q

Group 3-12: Transition metals properties

A

Number of valece electrons varies, less reactive harder metals
Metals used as “metals” strong, non-toxic

39
Q

Staircase: Metalloids properties

Have properties of metals and non-metals
Britlle,
Lustrous
Semi conductors used in computers

40
Q

Groups 13-16: Other Non-Metals Properties

Very brittle
Do not reflect light

41

44
Q

Counting atoms Water

A

Formula:
H20
Atoms Hydrogen Oxygen
2 hydro 1O

45
Q

Most elements are

A

monatomic

46
Q

Seven elements are ____ what are they

A

Diatomic, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, florine, clorine, bromine, iodine

47
Q

Counting atoms how to do

A

Symbol represents 1 element
Subscript after the number represents more than one of the previous element
Brackets mean (P2K1)3 = 6P 3 K
Coefficient means 3 of that formula = 3H20=6H 3O

48
Q

Chemical Bonding:
Why do they?
How?

A

To become stable, and get a full valence shell

By a metal donating electrons to non-metal (ionic)
2 non-metals sharing (covalent)

49
Q

Ionic bonding:

A

Ionic compoundsmetal loses electrons non-metal gains completing valence shells. Elements in same family develop same ionic charges, metals tend to lose electrons (cations), and non metals gain (anions)

50
Q

Ion formation

A

If electron is lost it becoms pawsitive (cation)
gains (negative anion)
oppisitely charged ions attract eachother and form ionic compounds

51
Q

Molecular compuounds

A

occur when two or more non-metals share their electrons to complete their valence shells

52
Q

naming binary ionic compounds

A

state name of the metal (cation)
State the name of the non-metal (anion) change ending to ide

53
Q

Writing formulas for bonds

A

Write symbols starte with metal, write ionic charge (no - or +) criss-cross the charges, reduce to lowest terms

54
Q

Covalent bonding

A

Share electrons to fill valence shell
Caused by two non-metals bonding
When writing formulas same as ionic
Naming adding prefixes

55
Q

Covalent bond naming

A

State the name of the first element
If there is more than 1 add the prefix
State the name of the second element, add prefix

56
Q
