Question | Answer |
---|---|
Becquerel | discovered radioactivity |
Rutherford | alpha particle experiment results in proposal of a heavy, dense atomic nucleus |
Chadwick | discovered the neutron, a particle w/ mass but no charge |
Thomson | experimentally showed the existance of the atom; also discovered proton are particles |
sub-atomic particles | neutron, proton, electron |
mass number | sum of protons & neutrons in the nucleus |
atomic number | number of protons in the nucleus |
isotopes | atoms of an element, having the same atomic number but different atomic masses |
nucleus | the central part of an atom that contains all its protons & neutrons. The nucleus is very dense & has a positive electrical charge |
electron | a particle w/ a negative electrical charge & a mass of 9.110x10(-28)g |
proton | a particle w/ actual mass of 1.673x10(-24). It's relative charge (+1) is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, to the charge of the electron |
subatomic particles | particles found within the atom, mainly protons, neutrons, & electrons |
Michael Faraday | discovered the ions |
# of neutrons | mass number - atomic number |
AMU | atomic mass unit |
AMU | a unit of mass equal to one twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom |
atomic mass | the average relative mass of the isotopes of that element compared to the atomic mass of carbon-12 (exactly 12.0000...amu) |
Greek model of matter | 4 elements-earth, air, water, fire |
neutral atom | contains the same number of protons & electrons |
law of definite composition | states that a compound always contains 2 or more elements chemically combined in a definite proportion by mass |
law of multiple proportions | states that atoms of 2 or more elements may combine in different ratios to produce more than one compound |
law (theory) | a summary of observed behavior |
model (theory) | an attempt to explain the observed behavior |
law | remains constant (don't undergo modifications) |
theories | (models) sometimes fail & are modified or discarded over time |
atom vs ion | atoms are the smallest particle of an element; ions are a positively or negatively charged atoms or group of atoms |
laughing gas | N2O |
Stock (nomenclature) System | a system that uses Roman numerals to name elements that form more than one type of cation. (For example Fe2+, iron(II); Fe3+, iron (III) |
cation | a postively charged ion |
anion | a negatively charge ion |
atomic number | determines the identity of an atom |
isotopes | an atom of an element that has the same atomic number but a different atomic mass. Since their atomic numbers are identical, isotopes vary only in the number of neutrons in the nucleus |
ion | a positively or negatively charged atom or group of atoms |
binary compound | a compound composed of 2 different elements |
binary ionic compound | formed when a metal combines with a nonmetal |
binary ionic compound | metal loses one or more electrons to become a cation while the nonmetal gains one or more electrons to become an anion |
binary ionic compound | the cation is written first followed by the anion |
naming cations | the lower charge cation has the -ous ending |
naming cations | the higher charged cation has the -ic ending |
polyatomic ions | an ion that contains 2 or more elements (ex.hydroxide OH-) |
naming acids | 1st look at the polyatomic ion following the hydrogen; 2nd the polyatomic ion is modified by (1) -ate changes to an -ic ending; (2) -ite changes to an -ous ending |
naming acids | the compound with the -ic ending contains more oxygen than the one with the -ous ending |
diatomic molecules | two atoms bonded together to form a molecule |
diatomic elements | H2, O2, N2, F2, Cl2, Br2, & I2 |
commonly polyatomic | S8 (sulfur) & P4 (phosporus) |
cations | named the same as their parent atoms (ex. atom-potassium K, Ion-potassium ion K+) |
cation | chemical equation ex. Mg--> Mg2+ + 2e- |
cation | any neutral atom that loses an electron |
anion | any neutral atom that gains an electron |
anion | O+2e- --> O2- |
to name an anion | consisting of only one element, use the stem of the parent element name & change the ending to -ide (ex. flourine to flouride ion) |
ions | most often formed when a metal combines w/ nonmetals |
binary compounds | contain only 2 different elements |
binary compounds | many are formed when metal combines w/ nonmetal to form binary ionic compoun |
binary compounds | the metal loses one or more electrons to become an cation while the nonmetal gains one or more electrons to become an anion |
binary compounds | the cation is written first in the formula, followed by the anion |
metal ions | when it only has 2 cation types, the name of the metal is modified w/ the suffixes -ous & -ic |
metal ions | the lower charge cation is given the -ous ending, & the higher one, the -ic ending |
metal ions | naming ex. FeCl2- ferrous chloride (fe2+ lower charge cation) |
metal ions | naming ex. FeCl3-ferric chloride(Fe3+ higher charge cation) |
binary compounds containing 2 nonmetals | compounds between nonmetals are molecular, not ionic |
