Unit 1 Flashcards
Where are protons found?
In the nucleus.

Positive.
What’s the mass of a proton?
1.
Where are electrons found?
Outside the nucleus.
What is the charge on an electron?
-1.
What the mass of an electron?
0.
Where are neutrons found?
In the nucleus.
What is the charge in a neutron?
No charge.
What is the mass of a neutron?
1.
What are the charges on atoms in general?
Neutral, because charges on protons and electrons cancel each other out.
How do elements in the same group have similar chemical reactions?
Because they have the same/similar amount of electrons.
What are isotopes?
When atomic numbers are the same, but mass numbers are different.
What are covalent bonds?
When non-metal atoms combine with other non-metal atoms.
How do double covalent bonds work?
When two of the same element share electrons with each other to become stable.
Can a covalent compound conduct? At solid? Liquid?
No. It can’t conduct at any state.
