Groups in the periodic table SC17 + Rate of reaction SC18 + Exo/endo thermic reaction SC19 Flashcards
What is in group 1 on periodic table?
Alkali metals
What are the properties of alkali metals?
all malleable and conduct electricity
relatively low boiling points, soft, easy to cut, very reactive and readily form compunds with non-metals
what is true about alkali metals in air?
easily oxidised and burn brightly in air
What is the order or alkali metals with reactivity increasing (start with least reactive)
Lithium
Sodium
Potassium
Rubidium
Ceasium
Francium
What can be observed of alkali metals?
- atom size inceases
- outermost electron gets further away from the positive nucleus
- electrostatic force between nucleus
- outermost electron gets weaker
- therefore electron is lost easier
how do alkali metals react with water?
- react vigorously lower down the list (explosive)
- form hydrogen + metal hydroxide
- higher up: fizz, move, gass given off
how do alkaline metals react with chlorine gas?
- react more vigorously going down
- metal + chlorine = metal chlorine (white solid)
What is group 7 composed of in the periodic table (what is the group name commonly called)?
Hallogens
What are the hallogens in group 7? give their appearances too (decrease reactivity - start at highest)
Florine (pale yellow)
Chlorine (pale green gas)
Bromine (Orange/brown liquid)
Iodine (grey solid)
Astitine (black solid)
What are the properties of hallogens?
- made up of two atoms
- Simple molecular structure
- Melting + boiling points increase going down
- Reactivity decreases going down
what do hallogens form when making an ionic bond with metal?
metal halide
what happens with halogens in displacement reactions?
more reactive ones always displace less reactive ones
what are the properties of nobel gasses?
- colourless gas
- Non flamable
- Low boiling point
- Dont conduct heat/electricty
- Dont react (inert)
- Boiling point inc as going down group
What is the common name for group 0?
Nobel gasses
What are the nobel gases?
Helium
neon
argon
krypton
Xenon
