chemistry p.2 Flashcards
physical changes
change of form or shape
change of state
dissolving
chemical changes
new colour appears
heat/light produced or absorbed
a solid material precipitate
difficult to reverse
cations
loses electrons and have a positive net charge
anions
gain electrons and have a negative net charge
whats the difference between a regular BR diagram for an element or ion
For ions, u need to add the brackets outside the BR diagram and the net charge at the top of the brackets. U also need to remove or add any necessary electrons to stabilize the element.
reactivity of metals vs nonmetals in periods
reactivity of metals increases from right to left. Reactivity of nonmetals increases from left to right.
reactivity of metals vs nonmetals in groups
reactivity of metals increases from the top to the bottom. Reactivity of nonmetals increases from the bottom to the top.
the more shells?
the more prone it is to losing electrons.
