Chem. Chapter 3

QuestionAnswer
State the 2 parts of the modern atomic theory? 1. all matter is composed of atoms 2. atoms may have different masses
What is the name of a positively charged particle? proton
What particle has about the same mass as a proton, but does not have a charge? neutron
What force causes the charge between protons in the nucleus? nuclear forces
Why are atoms electrically neutral? they have equal numbers of protons and electrons
What is different about atoms of isotopes of the same element? they have different number of neutrons
What is the same in all isotopes of hydrogen? they all have one proton
What does the atomic number indicate about an atom? number of protons in each atom
What does the mass number indicate about an atom? total number of protons and neutrons that make up the nucleus
As the mass number increases, what happens to the number of protons in the atom? the protons stay the same
What is the same in all atoms of the same element? atomic number (protons and neutrons)
What can be different in atoms of the same element? mass number
What is used as a standard to compare the masses of the elements? carbon-12 atom
What is the average atomic mass of an element an average of? the mass of its isotopes
Is the average atomic mass: the mass of the most abundant isotope, unequal to any mass of its isotopes, able to be calculated, or always equal to 100? unequal to any mass of its isotope
What is the "better" name for the mass listed on the periodic table? average atomic mass
Know how to determine the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom when given its atomic number and mass number. atomic number= protons protons=electrons mass # - atomic # = neutrons
Know how to determine at atom's mass number when given its number of each subatomic particle. atomic # + number of neutrons = mass number protons + neutrons = mass number
When given the hyphen notation form of an isotope, know how to determine the number of neutrons. oxygen-16 8 protons mass number - atomic number = neutrons
When given the hyphen notation form of an isotope, know how to determine the number of neutrons and protons. atomic number = protons neutrons = mass number - atomic number
When given the hyphen notation form of an isotope and the number of neutrons, know how to determine the number of protons and electrons. oxygen-16 8 neutrons mass number - neutrons = atomic number
How many atoms are in 1 mol of a substance? 6.02 x 10^23
What is the name for the number of atoms in 1 mole of a substance? Avogadro's number
If two elements have different atomic numbers, but you have 1 mole of each, how many atoms of each do you have? same number of atoms
What is Avogadro's number? 6.02 x 10^23 / number of atoms in 1 mole of a substance
What is the molar mass of an element? atomic mass of element = mass of 1 mole
Know how to convert moles to mass in grams. mass in grams = number of moles (given) x molar mass (periodic table)
Know how to convert grams to moles. number of moles = mass in grams (given)/molar mass (periodic table)
Know how to convert moles to # of atoms. number of atoms = number of moles x Avogadro's number
Know how to convert # of atoms to moles. number of moles = atoms/Avogadro's number
Know how to determine the average atomic mass of an element when given the percent abundance of each isotope and the isotope's mass. Copper-63 69.15% 0.6915 Copper-65 30.85% 0.3085 0.6915 x 63 = 43.5645 0.3085 x 65 = 20.0525 63.617
hyphen notation oxygen-18 18 = mass
molar mass equal 1 mole

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
