The Bohr-Rutheford Model Flashcards
1
Q
Why/how do members of a family on the periodic table behave the same way chemically?
A
All members have the same number of valence electrons in their outer valence shell
2
Q
Are orbits added or subtracted as you go down the periods on the periodic table?
A
Added
3
Q
What do the group numbers tell you for representative elements on the periodic table?
A
How many valence electrons
4
Q
How do the number in orbits or energy levels differ within a period on the periodic table?
A
They are the same per period
5
Q
Across a period, how do the number of valence electrons differ?
A
One electron is added as you go across until the orbit is full
6
Q
What does the period number tell you on a periodic table?
A
How many orbitals
7
Q
What is the octet rule?
A
2,8,8,18
