pre ap chem knowledge Flashcards
become one with honors chem
molecule
2+ atoms joined together
formula
amount and type of atoms before and after forming into a molecule
ions
an atom or group of atoms that have an electrical charge
ionic compound
a group of atoms with an electrical charge
naming ionic compounds
- name of positive ion first, negative ion second
- second name should end with -ide
acid
hydrogen joined with negative ion
the exception to naming acid rules
hydrochloric acid, HCl, is actually hydrogen chloride
acid ion name endings
-ate is changed to -ic
-ite is changed to -ous
anions
negative ion
cation
positive ion
what are atoms made of
neutrons and protons are in the nucleus
electrons that orbit around the nucleus
charges of protons, neutrons, and electrons
protons - +1
nuetrons - 0
electrons - -1
atomic number
amount of protons in the nucleus of an atom
isotopes
variations of neutrons in the nuclei of atoms
shell/energy level
the region where each electron can move
Periods
Have similar energies
Groups/Families
Y Axis: Behave in similar ways called properties, form new compounds in same ratios (Ex: BeCl2, MgCl2, CaCl2)
Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Boron Group, Carbon Group, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Halogen, Noble Gases
Groups/Families
Y Axis
Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Boron Group, Carbon Group, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Halogen, Noble Gases
4 forces of the universe in order of least to greatest strength
Gravity < Electromagnetism: Attraction/Repulsion < Weak Nuclear: Converts Protons into neutrons < Strong Nuclear: Holds nucleus together
3 Types of Radiation from least to greatest energy, what they’re stopped by
alpha, beta, gamma
Fission vs Fusion
Fission: Large split into small
Fusion: Small combine into Large
- Stronger than Fission
λ, wavelength
distance between peaks
f, frequency
(in hz) how often, per second, a wave passes
Electromagnetic spectrum, Long wavelength to short wavelength
radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light (ROYGBIV), ultra violet, xray, gamma rays
