New cards

What is matter?

Anything that has a mass and takes up space

2
New cards

Positively charged particles

3
New cards

4
New cards

Electrons

5
New cards

Matter

is anything that takes up space and has a mass

6
New cards

Based on observations and scientific experiments

7
New cards

Theoretical knowledge

based on scientific theories

8
New cards

Atoms

The smallest form of an element

9
New cards

What is the smallest form of an element and why?

Atoms, because they still consist of a whole nucleus with protons, electrons, and neutrons that make up that specific element if they were to be individually broken down it wouldn’t be considered the element anymore

10
New cards

Which group of elements are the most stable

11
New cards

Octet

an element with a full valance shell

12
New cards

Octet rule

elements will always gain or lose electrons to have a fuller outer shell

13
New cards

what is an entity

atom, molecule, or ion

14
New cards

Can Ions be cations or anions

can be both anions and cations or both entities that have gained or lost e to have a stable outer shell

15
New cards

how to calculate protons

atomic number

16
New cards

how to calculate neutrons and electrons

atomic mass - atomic number

17
New cards

how to name cations

18
New cards

how to name anions

19

ions with multiple charges

20
New cards

How to name multivalent ions

Classical or roman numeral

21
New cards

Polyatomic ions

Group of atoms that act all together as one entity sharing an overall charge

22
New cards

what does Na ion do for your body and what foods contain it

controls body fluids

salt, cheese, preservatives

23
New cards

what does K ion do for your body and what foods contain it

important for body fluid control and cell function

bananas, milk, potatoes

24
New cards

what does Ca ion do for your body and what foods contain it

Component in Teeth and bones

important in muscle functions and essential for hemoglobin

kidney beans, aspargus, pine nuts

26

27
New cards

what does Cl ion do for your body and what foods contain it

controls body fluids

salt

28
New cards

what does I ion do for your body and what foods contain it

helps regulate metabolic rate

fish, diary products, iodized salts

29
New cards

what are Isotopes

elements with different amount of neutrons but the same amount of protons

30
New cards

what are requirements for an isotopes

  • diff atomic mass

  • same atomic #

  • diff neutron #

  • similar chemical reactions

  • diff physical properties

31
New cards

what is considered an unstable isotope

when protons are greater than the neutrons number

32
New cards

Relative atomic mass

Using C-12 to compare other elements mass to

33
New cards

Why do we use C-12 as a reference weight

because atoms are really small and C-12 it is common and the closet to a normal p and n weight tg

34
New cards

Most Elements contain different isotopes and its rare to find a perfect (monostopic) element true or false?

True

35
New cards

Why do element not have perfect whole atomic masses?

Bec many elements arent just one element they’re often isotopes which cause the masses to not be whole

36
New cards

What is the percentage of an isotope called

Isotopic abundance

37
New cards

Isotopic abundance

How common an isotope shows up in an element

38
New cards

Mass spectrometer

used to figure out how the atomic mass and isotopic abundance

39
New cards

What is the scientific name that occurs when there is to many neutrons

Radioisotopes

40
New cards

Radiation occurs when?

Radioactive isotopes that are considered unstable and cause the nucleus to break apart ejecting high energy particles

41
New cards

Radiation types

  • alpha particles

  • beta particles

  • gamma rays

42
New cards

What occurs when beta particles form

neutrons that become unstable and turn into p or e

43
New cards

What are Alpha particles are made up of

2n and 2p

44
New cards

What occurs when gamma rays particle form

it becomes overexcited after evicting everyone and shoots out extra energy to settle down

45
New cards

What is an element

one kind of atom

46
New cards

what are compounds

when more than one atom combines together

47
New cards

The periodic table is organized by

increasing atomic #

48
New cards

Periodic law

Elements within the same group have similar chemical and physical properties

49
New cards

Groups

Vertical rows (up and down)

50
New cards

Periods

horizontal (left to right)

51
New cards

Metals are generally more reactive from

Top to bottom in a group and left to right in a period

52
New cards

Atomic radius

The space from the nucleus to the outermost shell

53
New cards

What occurs to the atomic radius as u go down a group?

The space increases because you’re adding more shells

54
New cards

What occurs to the atomic radius as u go to the right

the space decrease because the shells are getting smaller

55
New cards

What is Ionic Radius

the size of an ion as it looses or gains electrons

56
New cards

Going down the perodic table cause the ionic radius to

increase bec the shells are getting bigger

57
New cards

What occurs to the ionic radius when you go left to right on the perodic table

decreases because the amount of protons grow and the electrons are attracted to these protons causing them to have a tighter hole on them

58
New cards

Cations ions loose what and what occurs

Electrons causing their remaining electrons to go closer to the neclus bec theyre attracted to it and the electron repulsion has gotten weaker

59
New cards

Anions gain what and what occurs

Electrons causing the elctron repulsion to be great and have a larger shell

60
New cards

Ionization

the energy require to steal or remove an electron

61
New cards

As you go down a group ionization decreases why

as an atom grows the electrons the outtermost shell no longer have a tight hold

62
New cards

Ionization increases across a period bec

theres a greater amount of protons causing the hold on electrons to be tighter

63
New cards

Electron Affinity

The energy change that ocurs when and atoms gains an electron

64
New cards

Why does the electron infinity decrease down a group

because electrons are less likely to want another electron

65
New cards

Why does the electron infinity release more energy across a period

Bec atoms are more willing to steal electrons to fill their shells

66
New cards

Ionic compound

when a non meteal transfers its electrons to a metal

67
New cards

What is the force of an ionic bond called

Electrostatic attraction

68
New cards

How does a crystal lattice form

During an ionic compound cation ions and anions will form together in an alternating pattern making it harder to break them apart

69
New cards

What are the properties of a crystal lattice

  • hard

  • brittle

  • conduct electricity well as a liquid not solid

  • high melting point

70
New cards

Why does a crystal lattice able to conduct electricity well as a liquid but not a solid

Bec solid crystal lattices have no space for electricity to form while liquid crystal lattice have more space in-between them to allow electricity to pass

71
New cards

Molecular elements

have two or more of the same element bec they’re more stable together

72
New cards

Molecular/covalent compounds

two or more atoms of different elements

73
New cards

Diatomic molecules

two atoms

74
New cards

Polyatomic molecules

two or more atoms

75
New cards

properties of a covalent compound

  • can be any of the three states

  • solids are soft or have a waxy surface

  • low melting pt

  • is considered neutral so it cannot conduct electricity in any state

76
New cards

Naming: ionic compounds

crisscross and reduce if possible, place non metals name first and then metal with ide

77
New cards

Naming: multivalent

use roman numerals

78
New cards

Naming: Polyatomic

crisscross and reduce

79
New cards

Molecular compounds

use prefixes

80
New cards

Naming: Hydrates

add hydrate at the end

81
New cards

Electronegativity

High strong an atom can pull shared electrons to itself

82
New cards

What does higher and smaller bonds = in electronegativity

higher = stronger bond

smaller = lower bond

83
New cards

Non polar covalent bonds…

share electrons equally

84
New cards

Polar covalent bonds

do not share electrons equally
