The periodic table is organised into groups (columns) and periods (rows).
Elements are arranged by increasing atomic number.
Elements are arranged by increasing atomic number.
Groups contain elements with similar properties, while periods have the same number of energy levels.
Groups contain elements with similar properties, while periods have the same number of energy levels.
Metals are found on the left side of the periodic table, while non-metals are located on the right side.
Groups contain elements with similar properties, while periods contain elements that have the same number of electron shells.
Groups contain elements with similar properties, while periods contain elements that have the same number of electron shells.
Metals tend to be found on the left-hand side of the periodic table, while nonmetals are located towards the right-hand side.
Metals tend to be found on the left-hand side of the periodic table, while nonmetals are located towards the right-hand side.
Nonmetal atoms can gain electrons to form negative ions or lose electrons to form positive ions.
Nonmetal atoms can gain electrons to form negative ions or lose electrons to form positive ions.
Periodic trends refer to patterns or regularities observed within the periodic table.
Periodic trends refer to patterns or regularities observed within the periodic table.
Ions can be represented using symbols such as Na+ (sodium ion) and Cl- (chloride ion).
Elements within a group (column) share similar chemical properties due to their valence electrons occupying the same orbital.
Elements within a group (column) have similar chemical properties due to their similar electronic structures.
The reactivity series is used to determine which metals will displace other metals from their compounds when they react together.
Atoms can gain or lose electrons to form positive or negative ions.
The atomic radius decreases across a period due to an increase in nuclear charge attracting the outermost electrons more strongly.
Ions are charged particles formed when atoms gain or lose electrons.
The atomic radius decreases as we move down a group (column) due to an increase in nuclear charge attracting the outermost electron closer to the nucleus.
The reactivity series is used to determine which metals will displace other metals from their compounds when they are placed into an acid solution.
The periodic table is organized based on atomic structure, specifically the arrangement of electrons around an atom's nucleus.
Atomic radius increases down a group as there is an increasing number of energy levels (shells) containing electrons.
Periodic trends refer to patterns observed when comparing elements across rows or columns of the periodic table.
Elements within a period (row) have different chemical properties because they have different numbers of electron shells.
Ionization enthalpy refers to the amount of energy required to remove one mole of gaseous atoms from their ground state and convert them into 1 mole of gaseous ions.
Atomic mass is calculated by adding up the number of protons and neutrons present in the atom's nucleus.
Ionic bonding occurs between metal and nonmetal atoms, resulting in the transfer of one or more electrons from the metal atom to the nonmetal atom.
The atomic number is the number of protons present in an atom's nucleus.
The number of protons determines an element's identity, while the number of neutrons does not affect it.
Atomic mass refers to the average mass of all naturally occurring isotopes of an element.
Atomic mass refers to the average mass of all naturally occurring isotopes of an element.
Atoms with different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes.
Atoms with different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes.
Isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass numbers.
Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons.
Isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass numbers.
Atoms are made up of three subatomic particles - protons, neutrons, and electrons.
