Electron Configuration and the Periodic Table
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Noble gases fall into what numerical group of the Periodic Table | Group 18 |
What governs the atom's chemical properties | The electron configuration of an atom's highest occupied energy level |
In the modern periodic table how are the elements arranged | Vertically in groups that share similar chemical properties and horizontally in rows, or periods |
How many periods are there in the modern periodic table | Seven |
What determines the length of each period in the modern periodic table | The number of electrons tha can occupy the sublevels being filled in that period |
What number of elements are in Period 1 and what sublevels in order of filling | 2 Elements. Sublevels in order 1s |
What number of elements are in Period 2 and what sublevels in order of filling | 8 Elements. Sublevels in order 2s & 2p |
What number of elements are in Period 3 and what sublevels in order of filling | 8 Elements. Sublevels in order 3s & 3p |
What number of elements are in Period 4 and what sublevels in order of filling | 18 Elements. Sublevels in order 4s & 3d & 4p |
What number of elements are in Period 5 and what sublevels in order of filling | 18 Elements. Sublevels in order 5s & 4d & 5p |
What number of elements are in Period 6 and what sublevels in order of filling | 32 Elements. Sublevels in order 6s & 4f & 5d & 6p |
What number of elements are in Period 7 and what sublevels in order of filling | 32Elements. Sublevels in order 7s & 5f & 6d & 7p |
How is the period of an element determined | From the elements elecron configuration. |
How is the periodic table divided | Into four blocks s, p, d, and f blocks |
What are the block letter for Group 1 & 2 | This is the s-block |
What are the block letters for Group 3 through 12 | This is the d-block |
What are the block letters for Group 13 & 18 | This is the p-block |
What are The block letters for elements labeled 58 - 103 | This is the f-block. |
In the common periodic table, how are the elements arranged | Vertical groups and in horizontal periods |
List metals | Alkali metals, Alkaline-earth metals, Transition metals |
List nonmetals | Halogens, Noble gases |
The elements of the s block are what type of metals | reactive |
True or False: Group 1 metals are more reactive than those in Group 2 | True |
The elements of Group 1 of the periodic table (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium are | alkali metals |
Describe alkali metals in their pure state | silvery appearance and is soft enough to cut with a knife |
Are alkali metals found in nature as free elements | No |
How is alkali metals stored & why | It is stored in kerosene because of the extreme reactivity with air or moisture. |
The elements of Group 2 of teh periodic table (berylliu,, magnesiu, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium) are called | alkaline-earth metals |
Describe Group 2 metals | harder, denser, and stronger than teh alkali metals. It has higher melting points. |
Can alkaline-earth metals be found in nature as free elements | No because they are too reactive |
The d-block elements that are metals with typical metallic properties and are often referred to as | transition elements. |
Transition elements are good conductors of what | Electricity |
What are the least reactive of all the transition elements | Palladium, platinum, and gold |
What are examples of transition elements | Mercury, tungsten, & vanadium |
The p-block elements together with the s-block elements are called | main-group elements |
For atoms of the p-block elemenets, the total number of electrons in teh highest occupied level is equal to the group number minus what | 10 |
Name the six metalloids | boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, adn tellurium |
The elements of Group 17 (flourine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine are known as | halogens |
What are the most reactive nonmetals | Halogens |
Halogens react vigorously with most metals to form what | compounds known as salts |
What elements are gases at room temperature | Fluorine and chlorine |
Which element is a reddish liquid | bromine |
which element is a dark purple solid | iodine |
What element is a synthetic prepared in small quantities | Astatine |
Hydrogen does not share teh same properities as teh elements in what Group | Group 1 |
Hydrogen has an electron configuration of | 1s |
Hydrogen's configuration is | ns1 |
The number of teh highest occupied energy level | 5 |
If the group number is higher than 12, the element is in which block | P |
Which block of elements are wedged between Group 3 & 4 in the 6th & 7th periods | f-block |
What is the 1st row of the f-block | Lanthanides |
What is the 2nd row of the f-block | actinides |
Group numbers are not assigned to what block | F-block |
