  • malleable, ductile, & luster
20
Q

nonmetals

A
  • poor conductors
21
Q

metalloids

A
  • show mixture of metallic & nonmetallic properties
  • form “ladder” in periodic table
22
Q

atomic radius

A

1/2 the distance between the nuclei of 2 like atoms joined together

23
Q

atomic radius ____ down a group

A

increases, b/c electron shielding

24
Q

atomic radius _____ across a period

A

decreases, b/c nuclear charge

25
Q

electron shielding

A

inner e-s shield the valence e-s from the attractive force of the nucleus

26
Q

nuclear charge

A

as protons are added to the nucleus there is more attractive force w/ the e-s

27
Q

ionization energy (e¡)

A

energy required to remove an e- (kJ/mol)

28
Q

ionization energy (e¡) ____ down a group

A

decreases b/c electron shielding

29
Q

ionization energy (e¡) ____ across a period

A

increases b/c nuclear charge

30
Q

ionic size- cations (+)

A

ionic size decreases when it loses a valence e-
b/c it loses energy level and attraction is increased

31
Q

ionic size- anions (-)

A

ionic size increases when it gains a valence e-
b/c attraction descreases

32
Q

diatomic elements

A

made up of two atoms
