Chemistry Flashcards
Group 1
Alkali metals
Isotopes
Atoms of the same element that contain different numbers of neutrons
Group 2
Alkaline Earth Metals
Group 6
Chalcogens
Group 7
Halogens
Group 8
Noble Gases
Groups 3-12
Transition metals
Average mass of one isotope
Total mass of all atoms in an isotope/Total numbering atoms of that isotope
Relative Abundance
Number of atoms in an isotope/ total number of atoms *100
Relative mass
Relative abundance*average mass
Ionic Bonding
-when electrons are transferred from metal to non metal
Covalent Bonding
-takes place between 2 non metals which share electrons to form a bond
Orbitals
S:- 2 electrons
P:- 6 electrons
D:- 10 electrons
F:- 14 electrons
Metals vs. Nonmetals
Metals:- malleable, ductile, conductors, shiny, high melting or boiling points, high densities, low electronegativity
Nonmetals:- brittle, not ductile or malleable, dull, poor conductors, low densities, high electronegativity
Periodic trends in atomic radius, electronegativity, ionization energy
Atomic radius:- group: increases period: decreases
Electronegativity:- group:- decreases period: increases
Ionization energy:- group:- decreases period: increases
