🗑
Electromagnetic Spectrum   all of the frequencies or wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation  
🗑
Ground State   lowest possible state of energy for electrons, natural state of electrons

Metals have the following properties:   • Good conductors heat & electricity• Metal luster (shiny)• Malleable (can be bent molded)• Ductile (can be drawn into wire)• high density• Low ionization energy & electronegativities• Solid at room temperature (except Mercury = liquid)  
🗑
Metals have the following properties: (continued)   Want to lose valence electrons & form ionic or metallic bond  
🗑
Nonmetals have the following properties:   • Do not conduct heat or electricity• Are not malleable or ductile• Dull and brittle. Dull = not shiny, brittle = shatters easily• Many are gasses at room temperature but can also be a solid or liquid. •  
🗑
Nonmetals have the following properties:(continued)   Have high ionization energies and electronegativities • Want to gain valence electrons• Will form an ionic or covalent bond. [will bond with themselves]• Are good insulators [keep out heat and electricity, very poor conductors]  
🗑
Metalloids or Semi-metals have the following properties:   • properties of both metals and nonmetals. Ex: Silicon is shiny but brittle.• Reactivity depends on properties of other elements in the reaction. Ex: Boron acts as a non-metal when bonding with Sodium, but acts as a metal when bonding with Fluorine.

Metalloids or Semi-metals have the following properties (continued)   • Electronegativities and ionization energy is between metals and nonmetals. • Can make good semi-conductors.

Electronegativity   the ability of an atom to attract electrons  
🗑
Electron affinity   energy change that occurs when a neutral atom (same number of protons and electrons) gains an electron  
🗑
Electron shielding   the outer most electrons are held less tightly to the nucleus because the inner electrons block the nucleus from having control over the outer electrons. Example: Li – 3 electrons, very little shieldingRb – 37 electrons, more shielding.  
🗑
Electron Shield in Comparison story:   If you have 2 children, it’s easier to keep track of them than if you have 15 children. Similarly if an atom has 2 electrons around it, it has an easier time keeping them than if it has 37 electrons and they’re more easily stolen.  
🗑
Cation   lost electrons and is positively charged (metal)  
🗑
Anion   gains electrons and is negatively charged (nonmetal)  
🗑
