1
New cards

atomic number is the same as

number of protons

2
New cards

mass number is the same as

number of particles in the nucleus

3
New cards

protons are

positive

4
New cards

electrons are

negative

5
New cards

neutrons are

neutral

6
New cards

atomic number goes on ____ and mass number goes on _____

top, bottom

7
New cards

the number of __ determines what element a particle is, the number of _ determines what isotope of an element, and the number of —- determines the particle’s overall charge

Protons, neutrons, electrons

8
New cards

Empedocles

believed all matter was made up of 4 elements (earth, fire, wind, water)

9
New cards

Democritus

believed all matter was divisible into individual particles and that atoms combined in diff ways

10
New cards

John Dalton

Scientificially supported atoms, all atoms for the same element are alike

11
New cards

Law of Definite Composition

A compound contains 2 or more elements in a definite proportion

12
New cards

Law of Multiple Proportions

elements combine in different ratios to produce multiple compounds

13
New cards

JJ Thomson

discovered electrons, atoms are now divisible, figured there must be a positive charge since electrons are neutral.(plum pudding model)

14
New cards

Ernest Rutherford

protons are packed in the center or nucleus of the atom, atoms are mostly empty space, electrons move in orbits like planets around the sun (nuclear model)

15
New cards

Niels Bohr

Studied line spectrum of elements, modified solar system model into Bohr model, only certain, specific orbits are possible, quantized energy levels.

16
New cards

Erwin Schrodinger

based on mathematical probability of finding electrons, electrons located in clouds or orbitals of various shapes- s, p, d, f; quantum mechanical model

17
New cards

James Chadwick

discovered neutron

18
New cards

how many orbitals are in a 2p sublevel

3

19
New cards

how many orbitals are in a 3s sublevel

1

20
New cards

how many orbitals are in a 2nd level

4

21
New cards

how many electrons in a 3p sublevel

6

22
New cards

how many electrons in a 5s sublevel

2

23
New cards

how many electrons in a 3rd level

18

24
New cards

what is the mass of an atom measured in

amu

25
New cards

(n) principle quantum number

energy level of electron, larger n = more energy, can be any positive integer

26
New cards

(l) angular momentum quantum number

indicates orbital shape l=0 is s, l=1 is p, l=2 is d, l=3 is f, possible values are any integer from 0 to n-1

27
New cards

(ml) magnetic quantum number

indicates spatial orientation of an orbital, possible values anywhere from -l to positive l

28
New cards

(ms) spin quantum number

electrons can have 2 possible “spins”, possible values are positive ½ or negative ½

29
New cards

periods

horizontal rows (excluding f-block) there are 7 total in periodic table

30
New cards

families

columns, 18 total

31
New cards

Dmitri Mendeleev

recognized trends in the elements and published an accurate table of them

32
New cards

alakai metals

first group/family on periodic table

33
New cards

alakine earth metals

2nd group/family on periodic table

34
New cards

halogens

second to last group/family on periodic table

35
New cards

noble gases

last group/family on periodic table

36
New cards

metalloids

kind of diagonal and ambigious lowkey

37
New cards

diatomic gases

only really exist in molecular form not pure atom

38
New cards

atoms get _____ as you move down a family (column)

larger!!! because electrons are in energy levels further from the nucleus

39
New cards

atoms get _______ as you move across a period (row)

smaller!!!!! bc positive charge of nucleus pulls valence electrons in tighter (more effective nuclear charge)

40
New cards

ionization energy

energy needed to remove a valence electron

41
New cards

elements with lower ionization energy are _____ reactive

more!!!

42
New cards

when you move down a family (column), ionization energy______

increases!!!!

43
New cards

when you move across a period (row) ionization energy _____

decreases!!!! until electrons begin to pair up (they don’t like that and wanna push away)

44
New cards

quantum

specific amount

45
New cards

ground state

lowest energy state for electron

46
New cards

excited state

highest energy state for electron

47
New cards

photon

packet of light energy

48
New cards

aufbau principle

electrons fill lowest energy levels first

49
New cards

Hund’s rule

electrons don’t like to pair up unless they have to

50
New cards

Pauli exclusion principle

only 2 electrons per orbital

51
New cards

valence electrons

electrons in the highest energy levels or unfilled sublevels

52
New cards

plank’s constant

6.63 × 10 ^-34
