Term | Definition |
---|---|
Element | any pure substance that is made of only one kind of atom. |
Aristotle believed in what 4 elements? | Air, Fire, Earth, and Water |
Isaac Newton, Robert Boyle, and Antoine Lavoisier believed... | True scientific knowledge is gained by observing, experimenting, and reasoning |
Liquids | Mercury (Hg), Bromine (Br) |
Gases | Hydrogen (H), Helium (He), Nitrogen (N), Oxygen (O), Fluorine (F), Chlorine (Cl), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn) |
Monotomic elements | Have ONE atom in natural state. He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Ra |
Diatomic elements | Have TWO atoms in natural state. H, N, O, Fl, Cl, Br, I |
Dmitri Mendeleev | Arranged the periodic table as it is today-discovered blank spots in the periodic table |
Johann Dobereiner (1829) | placed the elements in order of increasing MASS |
Periodicity | the repetition of certain properties at regular intervals when elements were placed in order of atomic MASS. |
Henry Mosley | arranged elements in order of increasing atomic number |
Group -> | period |
Family (up/down) | series |
Group tells | how many valence electrons an element has |
Traits of metals | luster (shiny), malleable (can be molded), conduct electricity, ductile |
Traits of non-metals | LACK luster, brittle, DON'T conduct electricity, NOT ductile |
horizontal rows are called | periods or series |
The period number tells | how many electrons are in an atoms outer shell in their GROUND STATE |
Example...Sulfer is in the 3rd period, how many energy levels does it have? | 3 |
The more energy levels an atom has... | the LARGER it is |
Atomic diameter goes.. | Largest -> smallest and smallest (at the top) to largest (at the bottom) |
Group number tells | how many energy levels and atom has |
only _ electrons can fit in the first energy level | 2 |
ca+ions are | positive + |
anions are e g a t i v e | negative - |
Bonds: | taken, not shared |
Metal/non-metal= | ionic bond |
Electron affinity | deals with the strength of attraction of electrons to UNBONDED atoms |
Electronegativity | deals with an atom's ability to attract and hold electrons when BONDED to other atoms |
Covalent bonds | non-metal/non-metal -> sharing electrons |
metallic bonds | metal/metal -> everyone shares the electons |
Electron sea theory | Atoms with weak electronegativities usually have only a few loosely held valence electrons. |
