Periodic Table
Question | Answer |
---|---|
valence shell | Outermost shell of an atom |
atomic mass | Number of protons plus the number of neutrons |
conductivity | Ability for heat or electricity to flow through it |
neutron | Part of an atom with a neutral charge |
electron | Part of an atom with a negative charge |
malleable | Able to be flattened out |
ductile | Able to be stretched without breaking; not brittle |
proton 🙄 | Part of an atom with a positive charge |
luster | Ability to reflect light |
reactive | Causes a chemical reaction and releases energy |
family | Also called group; columns on the periodic table (go up and down); Elements in a group have the same number of electrons in the outer level |
period | Rows on the periodic table (side to side); Each row represents the number of energy levels |
compound | combination of 2 or more elements that are chemically combined |
Anything on the periodic table is... | an element |
Groups | go up and down (remember the word UP is in groups; show the number of valence electrons, 18 total |
Families | another name for groups |
Periods | go side to side , show the number of electron shells (or energy levels), 7 total |
Elements that are more similar are in the same... | Group |
Mixture | physically combined, can be separated |
