Q

What was john daltons atomic theory

A

 All matter is made up of tiny particles called
atoms. An atom cannot be created, destroyed
or divided into smaller particles
 The atoms of one element cannot be converted
into the atoms of any other element
 All the atoms of one element have the same
properties, such as mass and size. These
properties are different from the properties of
the atoms of any other element
 Atoms of different elements combine in specific
proportions to form compounds

Q

What did JJ Thomson contribute to atomic theory

A

Thomson studied the
passage of an electric
current through a gas.
As the current passed through the gas,
it gave off rays of negatively charged
particles.

Q

What did Niels Bohr contribute to atomic theory

A

 Electrons exist in circular orbits (planetary orbits) with
electrostatic force from the nucleus holding them in
place
 Electrons can exist in only a series of allowed orbits
(energy levels). Therefore the energy of electrons are
quantized
 While an electron is in one orbit it does not radiate
energy
 Electrons can “jump” between energy levels by
absorbing and emitting photons (packets of energy)
carrying an amount of energy that equals the
difference in the energy levels of electrons

Q

According to the Bohr model, what are the two ways an atom can be excited?

A
  1. Atom can collide with a
    highly energetic particle (e.g.
    electron) in an electric current
    passing through a gas
  2. Atom can absorb a photon
    that has an amount of energy
    equal to the difference
    between the energy of the
    orbit it occupies and the
    energy of a higher orbit

Q

How are line spectra formed (emission)

A

A gas discharge tube containing an element goes through two small slits and into a prism. This will split the light and display which colours are emitted by the gas.

Q

How does electron movement in an atom effect colour of light

A

The longer distance the electron moves, the more energy is produced. A far movement would create violet light, a short one would create red light.

Q

What is isoelectronic

A

two atoms or ions that have the same electronic structure and same number of valence electrons.

19
Q

What is an isotope

A

A variation in mass of an atom of an element due to a difference in neutron count

20
Q

what is isotopic abundance

A

the % or decimal amount of quantity an isotope has compared to other isotopes

21
Q

what is average atomic mass (AAM)

A

Average atomic mass is the average mass of an atom based off how abundant its isotopes are

22
Q

Formula for Average atomic mass (AAM)

A

AAM = %ab1 x mass1 + %ab2 x mass2…

23
Q

what is a radioisotope

A

radioactive isotope

24
Q

How is radiation produced, what is radiation?

A

Radiation is produced from decaying atoms. radiation is the emission or transmission of energy in the form of waves or particles.

25
Q

what are the 3 types of radiation, their symbols, and penetrating power

A

alpha particles - fancy curved a - wont penetrate skin
beta particles - funny long stick B - will penetrate skin and some tissues
gamma rays - LONG Y - will deeply penetrate tissue

26
Q

what is a group, period and family

A

group - vertical column
period - horizontal row
family - ways to divide certain elements in the periodic table (alkali metals, halogens, etc.)

27
Q

properties of metals

A

malleable, ductile, good conductors, lustrous, solids at room temp (except mercury), typically tough

28
Q

properties of non metals

A

non malleable, not ductile, poor conductors, not lustrous, brittle or soft, can be any state at room temp,

29
Q

properties of metalloids

A

lustrous, brittle, mid conductors, some are malleable, some are ductile

30
Q

what did johann dobereiner contribute to the periodic table

A

law of triads - groups of three elements with similar properties. Put three elements in order of atomic weight

31
Q

what did john a. newlands contribute to the periodic table

A

Arranged all known elements in order of atomic mass. Observed every 8th element had similar properties (law of octaves). began to use families.

32
Q

what did dimitri medeleev controbute to the periodic table

A

Organized elements by atomic masses that were arranged “periodically” with elements of similar properties under each other

33
Q

what is effective nuclear charge, what is its short form, how does it affect periodic trends

A

Effective nuclear charge is how much pull the protons in the nucleus have on the electrons (net force), shortened to Zeff. Zeff increases from left to right on the table, making the atomic radius smaller.

34
Q

what are the trends in atomic radius

A

from left to right atomic radius decreases, from up to down it increases

35
Q

A

Ionization energy increases from left to right, decreases top to bottom

37
Q

what is the chemical equation for ionization energy, use sodium as an example

A

Q

what is atomic radius

A

Atomic radius is generally stated as being the total distance from an atom’s nucleus to the outermost orbital of electron.

39
Q

what is ionization energy

A

Ionization energy, in chemistry and physics, the amount of energy required to remove an electron from an isolated atom or molecule.

40
Q

what is electron affinity

A

The energy change that occurs when an electron is addedto a neutral, gaseous atom to form an anion

41
