3
New cards

A

A= atomic mass

A=protons+neutrons

4
New cards

A-Z

used to find number of neutrons

5
New cards

Atoms acquire energy by gaining or losing…

electrons

6
New cards

Negatively charged atoms are called … and they are formed when an atom … an electron

anions, gain

7
New cards

Positively charged atoms are called … and they are formed when an atom … an electron

cation, loses

8
New cards

Isotopes are atoms with the same … but different … since they have a different number of …

Z(atomic number), A(atomic mass), neutrons

9
New cards

How do you find the % abundance of an isotope?

abundance will always equal 100%, subtract from 100 if given the abundance of one of the isotopes

10
New cards

(mass1 x abundance1)+(mass2 x abundance2)=?

amu(average atomic mass) of 2 isotopes

11
New cards

group 8A elements are called …

Noble gasses

21
New cards

an element is composed of … of the same …

atoms, type

22
New cards

a … is a substance composed of 2 or more different types of … arranged in a specific ratio and connected by chemical bonds.

*the character of each element is lost when forming this

compound, atoms

23
New cards

a … is a combination of two or more … in a specific arrangement held together by chemical bonds

molecule, atoms

24
New cards

diatomic molecules are …

molecules made up of two atoms chemically bound together via covalent bonds, meaning they share electrons to remain stable

25
New cards

ionic compounds are made when …

ex) NaCl

there is an electron transfer between atoms, typically when a metal atom transfers an electron to a non metal atom

26
New cards

metals tend to … electrons and become positively charged …

lose, cations

27
New cards

nonmetals tend to … electrons and become negatively charged …

gain, anions

28
New cards

Because an ionic compound has a neutral charge, the sum of the charge must be …

zero

29
New cards

molecular formulas use chemical symbols and subscripts to show how many … there are in each type of molecule

atoms

30
New cards

structural formulas use … to show how the atoms are connected in a molecule

lines

31
New cards

empirical formula shows how many … are actually present in the simplest whole number ratio of … in a compound

atoms, atoms/ions

32
New cards

1 mole=

33
New cards

molar mass in grams is equivalent to …

(A)atomic mass(amu)

34
New cards

how to find #atoms when given #moles

#moles= #atoms/6.022 × 10²³

35
New cards

how to find #moles

#moles=mass/molar mass

36
New cards

how to find mass when given molar mass

mass= molar mass x #moles

37
New cards

how to find #atoms

#atoms= (6.022 × 10²³) x #moles of atoms

38
New cards

how is molar mass denoted?

g/mol
