Chem Test #1

Might not be the full test

QuestionAnswer
Atom Definition The smallest identifiable unit of an element that retains the properties of the element
Greeks atom model - 4 elements: Earth, air, fire, water - Elements composed of tiny indivisible particles (atomos- meaning indivisible)
John Dalton Billiard ball - Composed tiny, indivisible, uniform, spherical particles - Atoms of the same element are identical (false) - Compounds have whole number ratios
Thomson Plum Pudding Model - Discovered the electron - Electrons uniformly distributed throughout positive material that fills atom
Rutherford 1st gold foil experiment - Atom is empty space besides for all of the positive charge and mass in the nucleus
Mendeleev organization - Increasing atomic mass - Similar physical & chemical properties placed in horizontal rows
Modern PT organization - Increasing atomic number - Elements w/ similar properties in same vertical column
Props of metals - Conduct heat and electricity - Most are gray or silver colored - Solids @ room temp - High MP & BP - Lustrous - Malleable - Ductile
Lustrous Shiny
Malleable Able to be flattened
Ductile Able to be stretched into wire
Props of non metals - Do not conduct heat and electricity - Variety of colors - All different states of matter - Lower MP & BP - Not lustrous - Not malleable - Not ductile
Metaloids Have varying amounts of properties from both metals and nonmetals
Group 1 name Alkali Metals
Group 2 name Alkaline Earth Metals
Group 17 name Halogens
Group 18 name Noble gasses
2 bottom rows Inner transition metals
Top bottom row Lanthanides
Bottom bottom row Actinides
Empirical formula Simplified ratio of a compound
Reason for nomenclature To help understand reactions
Ionic Compounds - Binary Ionic-Main Group Metal & Nonmetal - Binary Ionic-Transition Metal & Nonmetal - Ionic Compounds w/ Polyatomic Ions - Repeating arrangement of the ions in the compound
Molecular Compounds - 2 nonmetals - noncontinuous, just the given units
Cations - Positively charged ions - Groups 1, 2, 13
Anions - Negatively charged ions - Groups 15-17
..."ate" Basis for other variations (0)
..."ite" One less oxygen (-1)
"hypo"... Two less oxygens (-2)
"per"... One more oxygen (+1)
Adding hydrogen to a polyatomic ion H has a +1 charge meaning that it will change the charge of the ion (ex: -2 charge will turn to - charge)

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
