periodic table properties

Question 1

alkali metals

Answer 1

react violently with water
hydrogen isn’t consider alkali

Question 2

transition metals

Answer 2

good catalyzers
good electrical conductors

Question 3

metalloids

Answer 3

conduct electricity in specific conditions
most are malleable and ductile
medium fission and boiling point
they can for cations or anions

Question 4

metals

Answer 4

• great conductors of heat and electricity
• maleable and ductile
• high boiling and melting point
• react with other elements making cations

Question 5

non-metals

Answer 5

not conductors of electricity
great isolators
can be liquid, solid or gas
brittle in solid state
low fission and boiling point
they are oxidizing agents
form anions

Question 6

halogens

Answer 6

solid, liquid or gas
high electronegativity
found in diatomic molecules

Question 7

noble gases

Answer 7

very stable
high ionization energy

Question 8

atomic radius

Answer 8

size of an elements atom
distance between the nucleus and the farest electron

Question 9

metallic character

Answer 9

set of chemical properties for elements that are metals
metals easily lose their electrons

Question 10

ionization energy

Answer 10

• energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom
• alkali are they least ionization energy and noble gases have the highest ionization energy

Question 11

electronegativity

Answer 11

tendency to attract electrons
