brittle solids
Eleven are gases at room temperature, six are ________, and one is a liquid.
New cards
3
Chemical reactions
________ change only the way that atoms are combined in compounds.
New cards
4
Russian chemist
In 1869, the ________ Dmitri Mendeleev organized the elements in order of increasing mass and then organized elements into groups based on similarities in chemical behaviour.
New cards
5
neutrons
The protons and ________ are packed closely together in a dense core called the nucleus.
New cards
6
spin
Each orbital can hold only two electrons, which differ in a property known as ________.
New cards
7
Z
Each atom has a specific number of protons, neutrons, and electrons, and the identity of the element is determined by the number of protons within the nucleus, also called the elements atomic number (________)
New cards
8
→The metalloids
________ are located in a zigzag band between the metals on the left and non- metals on the right side of the periodic table.
New cards
9
→18 elements
________ are non- metals.
New cards
10
Bromine
________ is the only liquid non- metal.
New cards
11
→Group 7A Halogens
________: Fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At) are colourful and corrosive non- metals.
New cards
12
metals aluminum
→ 94 are classified as ________, gold, copper, and zinc, for example.
New cards
13
periodic table
The ________ can be divided into four regions, or blocks, of elements according to the electron shells and subshells occupied by the subshell filled last.
New cards
14
valence electrons
Because the ________ are the most loosely held, they are the most important in determining an elements properties.
New cards
15
Atoms
________ are composed of tiny subatomic particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons.
New cards
16
→RULE
________ 2: Each orbital can hold only two electrons, which must be of opposite spin.
New cards
17
Group 1A-Alkali metals
Lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs), and francium (Fr) are shiny, soft metals with low melting points
New cards
18
Group 2A-Alkaline earth metals
Beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), and radium (Ra) are also lustrous, silvery metals but are less reactive than their neighbours in group 1A
New cards
19
Group 7A-Halogens
Fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At) are colourful and corrosive non-metals
New cards
20
Group 8A-Noble gases
Helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and radon (Rn) are colourless gases
New cards
21
Within shells, electrons are further grouped into subshells of four different types, identified in order of increasing energy by the letters s, p, d, and f. The first shell has only one subshell, s. The second shell has two subshells
an s subshell and a p subshell
New cards
22
→RULE 1
Electrons occupy the lowest-energy orbitals available, beginning with 1s
New cards
23
→RULE 2
Each orbital can hold only two electrons, which must be of opposite spin
New cards
24
→RULE 3
Two or more orbitals with the same energy are each half-filled by one electron before any one orbital is completely filled by the addition of the second electron
