C1 atomic structure and the periodic table

Cards (37)

  • element definition
    all the atoms are the same
  • compound definition
    contain 2 or more different elements chemically combined
  • mixture definition
    different elements or compounds but not chemically combinded
  • molecule definition
    has any element chemically combined even if they are the same
  • what is filtration used for
    seperating insoluble solid from liquid
  • what is crystallisation used for
    separating soluble solid from liquid
  • what is fractional distillation
    used to separate different liquids with different boiling points
  • what is the nuclear model
    atom is empty space with positive nucleus in centre containing most of mass with negative electrons in edge
  • radius of an atom
    0.1 nanometers (1x10 ^-10)
  • relative charge and mass of protons
    Charge - +1
    mass - 1
  • relative charge and mass of neutron
    charge - 0
    mass - 1
  • relative charge and relative mass of electron
    charge - -1
    mass - very small
  • electron charge
    negative
  • proton charge
    posotive
  • neutron charge
    neutral
  • what does atomic number (smaller number) tell us
    number of protons and electrons in element
  • what does atomic mass number (bigger number) tell us
    TOTAL number of protons and neutrons
  • isotopes meaning
    atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons
  • what is an ion
    atom which has an overall charge because ions have lost or gained electrons
  • electron configuration (max electrons in one shell)
    2,8,8,
  • how did mendeleev discover the modern periodic table
    arranging all elements in increasing atomic mass
    left gaps for undiscovered elements
  • difference between modern periodic table and Mendeleev's
    elemets are arranged in atomic number because protons not discovered during his time

    modern table has group 0
  • why are group 0 atoms unreactive
    they have a full outer shell of electrons so it is stable
  • second key feature of group 0
    boiling point increases as the relative atomic mass increase (going down)
  • where are metals found in periodic table
    left and middle
  • where are non metals found in periodic table
    right
  • key feature about metals reacting
    when metals react they lose electrons to get full outer shell so element becomes stable

    always form positive ion
  • how many electrons do group one metals have on their outer shell
    1
  • group one reactivity features
    as you go down group one the quicker they react
  • why do group one metals react quicker as you go down
    because outer electron is lost and elements at bottoms of group 1 lose it easier the top ones
  • why does group 1 react more as you go down the ground

    as you go down outer electron if further away from nucleus - electrostatic attraction is weaker between negative electron and positive nucleus - so electron easily donated when bonding
  • what is group 7 called
    the halogens
  • how many electrons do group 7 have in they outer shell
    7
  • what do group 7 non metals do to get full outer shell
    covelant bond to gain electron
  • what happens as you go down group 7
    elements become less reactive as you go down group
  • why does reactivity decrease as you go down group 7
    atoms become larger as you go down, leading to a weaker attraction between nucleus and outer electrons. weaker attraction makes it harder for atom to gain electron and being stable
  • How does the reactivity of halogens change down group seven?
    It decreases as you move down
