| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Structure of the periodic Table- | Horizontal rows= periods Vertical rows= groups |
| Metals | Lose electrons |
| Nonmetals | Gain electrons |
| Semi metals | Metals + nonmetals |
| Change in # of protons | Increases |
| change in valance electrons | Decreases |
| Change in energy levels | Increases |
| Change in atomic radius | Increases Left to right |
| Electronegativity | Pulling from the inside an electron , it increases from left to right |
| Ionization energy | they lose an electron and become positively charged, increases from left to right |
| Elements in the same family similar properties | Top to bottom , the have the same valance electron |
| Reactivity | is the tendency of a substance to undergo chemical reaction, either by itself or with other materials, and to release energy. |
| How to predict reactivity | similar reactions involving a different metal. |
