Question 39

The pattern involving orbitals and periods

Answer 39

Each period you go down, the orbital increases by one

Question 40

The pattern to do with valence electrons and groups

Answer 40

The valence electrons increase by one each group, excluding groups 3-12

Question 41

The main families on the periodic table and where they are located (5)

Answer 41

Alkali metals (group 1), alkaline earth metals (group 2), transition metals (groups 3-12), rare earth metals (2 rows at the bottom), halogens (group 17), noble gases

Question 42

As you move down a column, elements become more… because….

Answer 42

Reactive, this happens because they have more energy because they have more energy

Question 43

Atomic radius ______ as you go down a group, because….

Answer 43

Increases, this is because there are more protons and neutrons so the nucleus is bigger

Question 44

What is an example of two groups that are extremely reactive w each other and what is the reasoning

Answer 44

Alkali metals and halogens: this is because they are both aiming for a full valence shell and to achieve that alkalis have to lose one and halogens have to gains one

Question 45

Physical properties of metals

Answer 45

Shiny, solid, high density, strong, malleable, good conduction of heat, good conductor of electricity,

Question 46

Physical properties of non-metals

Answer 46

Dull, about half are solids, half are gases and one (bromine) is a liquid, low density, weak, brittle, poor conduction of heat and electricity (insulators)
