Final Ka Year 10 Chemistry Flashcards
What is represented at the bottom of the element box on the periodic table?
Atomic number (proton and electron number)
What is represented at the top of the element box on the periodic table?
Atomic mass
Which two particles always have the same number?
Protons and electrons
What is group one of the periodic table and what are some facts about them?
1 electron in final shell
Alkaline metals.
Not very dense
Will react with water to form hydrogen
Will react with non metals to form ⁺¹ ionic compounds
As they react with water they form alkaline solutions
Further down the more reactive
What is group 7 of the periodic table and what are some facts about them?
7 electrons in outer shell Halogens Non-metals React with metals to form ⁻¹ ions Further down the less reactive
What is group 0 of the periodic table?
Full outer shell (8)
Noble gases
Chemically unreactive
Stable
Why are group 0 elements chemically unreactive?
They have a full outer shell
What makes two elements not react with each other?
They both have full outer shells
What is an ion?
An element or molecule that has lost electrons following a reaction
What chemical properties do all metals have?
Positive ions. This means they give away electrons in chemical reactions
What chemical properties do all non metals have?
Negative ions. This means they receive electrons in chemical reactions
Lithium + water –> hydrogen + ______
Lithium hydroxide
What happens when alkali metals react with water?
Hydrogen is made and the alkaline solution hydroxide
What happens to group 1 elements the further down they go?
They get more reactive
What happens to group 7 elements as they go down?
They get less reactive
What is ionic bonding?
When a metal reacts with a non-metal. The electron leaves the metal and joins the non-metal
What allows metals to conduct electricity?
Free electrons can move through the metals
What are the typical properties of metals?
Lustrous (shiny)
Hard
High density (are heavy for their size)
High tensile strength (resist being stretched)
High melting and boiling points
Good conductors of heat and electricity
Malleable (can be bent into shape without breaking)
