periodic table Flashcards
alkali reactions with oxygen
form oxides, white solids that are soluble in water to give alkaline solutions
alkali metal trends
- m.p decreases down the group
- reactivity increases down the group
- density increases down the group
halogen trends
- diatomic molecules
- low m.p and b.p
- non-conductor of heat and electricity
- more soluble in organic substances than water
- density increases down the group
- reactivity decreases down the group
halogen appearance
iodine- grey-black solid
chlorine- pale yellow-green gas
bromine- red-brown liquid
displacement reaction
a more reactive halogen will displace another less reactive halogen that is in solution as a halide ion
transition metal properties
- high m.p
- hard
- more dense than group 1 and 2
- form coloured compounds
- good catalysts
- good heat and electricity conductors
- malleable and ductile
- less reactive than group 1 and 2
- form more than one type of ion as they have multiple oxidation states
general periodic table trends
- full outer shell makes atom stable
- density increases down the groups
define monoatomic
only contains one atom
which 2 gases are used for light bulbs
neon and argon
helium uses
- balloons
- LCD panels
argon uses
- lights
- fire extinguishers
neon uses
- lasers
- vacuum tubes
xeon uses
- lamps
- projectors
noble gases properties
- low b.p and m.p
- density increases down the group
- unreactive
- colourless
-monoatomic
why do noble gas densities increase?
atoms get larger therefore intermolecular forces get larger
another name for noble gases
inert gases
