periodic table Flashcards
how are elements in the periodic table arranged
atomic number
why is the periodic table called this
elements either similar properties occur at regular properties
why do elements in the same group have similar properties
they have the same number of electrons in their outermost shell
how wrre elements arranged in the past
atomic weight
what wete the problems with the early periodic table
not all of the elements had been discovered and when elements were placed in order of atomic weight they eneded up in the same group
how did mendeleev overcome the problems of early periodic table
he left gaps for undiscovered elements and changed the order of some elements
what tupe of ions do metals form
positive
what type of ions do non metals form
negative
where are netalsnfound on the periodic table
on the left and towards the bottom
where are non metals found on the periodic table
on the right towards the top
what are the elements in group 0 known as
noble gases
why are elements in group 0 unreactive
the atoms have a stable arrangement of electrons, they have full outermast shells
why are the elements in group 0 monotomic
they have a full shell and do not lose or gain electrons
what happens to the bouling point down group 0
boiling point increases
what are elements un group 1 known as
alkali metals
