Transition Metals
Group _ elements are called the noble gases.

Group _ elements are called alkali metals.
Group 1

Group 7
Physical Changes
● These changes are reversible ● Can’t be separated by physical means ● It includes changes in shape, size, and other physical properties
Chemical Changes
● These changes are irreversible ● Can be separated by physical means ● It includes color, changes in taste, or when a gas is produced
● Defenders for molecules ● 2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen ● Forms rivers, lakes, seas, etc.
Water
● An important molecule that gives energy to the body ● Made up of 24 atoms
Glucose
● A molecule made up of millions of atoms in a specific arranged pattern
DNA
● When bonded with nitrogen, it can create ammonia (an important molecule found in fertilizer)
Hydrogen
● Doesn’t bond with other elements as its outer shell is already full ● Noble gas
Helium
● Has one more electron needed to get rid off
Sodium
● Needs one more electron
Chlorine
● Sodium + Chloride (NaCl) ● An example of how atoms become more stable when bonded with others
Salt
● 1 Carbon + 2 Oxygen ● What plants breathe and keeps the earth from freezing
Carbon Dioxide
● In 1789, he published a list of 33 substances he considered as elements and grouped them into categories
Antoine Lavoiser
● In 1800s, his atomic theory supported that each element consists of one type of atom, helping scientists compare elements by atomic mass
John Dalton
● In the 1600s, he argued that an element should be a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical methods
Robert Boyle
● In 1829, Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner grouped certain elements into sets of three with similar properties. He noticed a pattern in their atomic masses.
Law of Triads
● In 1864–1865, John Newlands arranged elements by increasing atomic mass. He observed that similar properties seemed to recur every eighth element among some of the lighter elements.
Law of Octaves
● In 1913, he used X-ray measurements to study elements . His work showed that each element has a unique atomic number, which is the number of protons in an atom’s nucleus
Henry Moseley
What happens: One atom gives away an electron, and another atom takes it
Metal w/ nonmetal
What happens: Two atoms don't want to give up their electrons, so they share them instead.
2 nonmetals
What happens: Metal atoms crowd together and let all their outer electrons swim around freely in a shared "sea".
2 metals Even Match: Both atoms are incredibly weak and don't want their outer electrons much.
Principle wherein it states that electrons fill lower energy levels first
Aufbau Principle
1925, Wolfgang Pauli
no 2 electrons can occupy same 4 quantum numbers
→ 2nd electron must have different spin
Pauli Exclusion Principle
Fill all electron spins in the boxes before pairing
Hund’s Rule
In Lewis Dot Structure, 1 covalent bond is s_____ bond
Sigma bond
In Lewis Dot Structure, 2 covalent bond is p_ bond
Pi bond
Most outer layer of Earth
approx. 70km, less than 1% of Earth
Crust
Solid part of mantle
Lithosphere
Part of mantle that makes tectonic plates move
→ like hot plastic, viscous & flows slowly
Asthenosphere
Biggest layer of Earth, contains igneous rocks, magma
approx. 2,900km, 84% of Earth
Mantle
Layer of Earth that contains molten liquid metal
Outer Core
Layer of Earth that is solid due to immense pressure brought by layers above
Inner Core
Constant ratio between ratio & volume
Density
Density formula
Mass/Volume
Term for half of celestial sphere
Hemisphere
Northern Hemisphere: _____ hemisphere
Land hemisphere
Southern Hemisphere: _____ hemisphere
Water hemisphere
Granitic crust
thicker, less dense
Continental Crust
Basaltic crust
thinner, denser
Oceanic Crust
IA / 1
Alkali metals
A volcano that is currently erupting, showing signs of unrest (such as earthquakes or gas emissions), or has erupted in recent geological history (typically within the last 10,000 years). Example: Mount Kanlaon and Taal Volcano in the Philippines.
Active Volcanoes
A "sleeping" volcano that has not erupted for a long time, but still has a magma supply beneath it and could erupt again in the future. Example: Mount Apo (Philippines) or Mount Rainier (USA).
Dormant Volcano
A "dead" volcano that is cut off from its magma supply and is not expected to ever erupt again. Example: Mount Batulao (Philippines) or Edinburgh Castle Rock (Scotland).
Extinct Volcano
Magma is hot, thin, and runny (low viscosity). Because the liquid is loose, dissolved gases can escape easily without building up dangerous pressure.
Effusive Eruptions (Quiet & Flowing)
Magma is thick, cool, and sticky (high viscosity). Because the magma is pasty, gas bubbles cannot escape. Pressure builds up inside the volcano until it violently shatters the rock and blasts material into the sky.
Explosive Eruptions (Violent & Blasting)
Mild, frequent "burps" or explosions where bubbles of gas burst near the surface, flinging glowing globs of lava into the air like a natural fireworks show.
Strombolian Eruption
Stronger, sudden explosions of thick gas and dark cauliflower-shaped clouds of ash.
Vulcanian Eruption
Dangerous, fast-moving avalanches of hot gas and rock (called pyroclastic flows) that collapse and rush down the sides of the mountain.
Pelean Eruption
The most cataclysmic and dramatic type. Gas-rich magma blasts a massive rocket-like pillar of ash and gas tens of kilometers high into the stratosphere (like the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo).
Plinian Eruption
Underground water or groundwater gets super-heated by hot rocks and flashes into explosive steam, blasting rock and ash (with no fresh magma reaching the surface).
Phreatic (Steam-driven) Eruption
Hot, fresh magma violently hits surface water, ice, or a crater lake, causing a high-energy steam-and-magma explosion that sends out massive surges of fine ash (like recent explosions at Taal Volcano).
Phreatomagmatic Eruption

Broad, wide, and gently sloping (resembles a warrior's shield lying flat).
Shield Volcano

Tall, steep-sided, and symmetrical cone made of alternating layers of hardened lava and ash.
Composite/Stratovolcano

Small, steep, cone-shaped hill with a large bowl-shaped crater at the top.
Cinder Cone

Rounded, steep-sided mound formed over a volcanic vent.
Lava Dome Volcano

Massive, wide basin or depression left behind after a volcano collapses into its emptied magma chamber.
Caldera Volcano
A large underground pool of molten rock (magma) stored beneath the Earth's crust under high pressure.
Magma Chamber
The main vertical channel where magma and gases travel upward from the magma chamber toward the surface.
Conduit (Pipe)
The main opening in the Earth's surface where magma, gases, and ash escape into the atmosphere.
Vent (Primary Vent)
A bowl-shaped or circular depression urrounding the main vent at the top of the volcano.
Crater
Smaller cracks or openings on the flanks (sides) of a volcano where magma can also escape.
Secondary Vents / Side Vents
A small cone-shaped accumulation of volcanic debris and hardened lava formed around a secondary vent.
Parasitic Cone / Secondary Cone
Flat or sheet-like underground rock intrusions formed when magma squeezes into horizontal cracks (___) or vertical cracks (___) and cools.
