| a horizontal row of blocks in the periodic table is called a | period |
| the most useful source of chemical information about the elements is | a periodic table |
| elements in a group in the periodic table can be expected to have similar | properties |
| a vertical column of blocks in the periodic table is called a | group |
| which of the following observations is quantitive | liquid boils at 100'C |
| quantitive observations are recorded using | numerical information |

| who was the schoolmaster who studied chemistry and proposed an atomic theory | john dalton |
| rutherford fired positivly charged particles at metal foil and concluded that most of the mass of an atom was | concentrated in the nucleus. |
| isotopes of an element contain different numbers of | neutrons |
| the smallest unit of an element that can exist alone or in a combination with other such particles is an | atom |
| the atomic number of oxygen 8 indicates that there are 8 | protons in the nucleus of an oxygen atom |

| the half life of an isotope is the time required for half the nuclei in a sample to | undergo radioactive decay |
| which of the following has the greatest penatrating ability | gamma rays |
| gamma rays are | electromagnetic waves |
| an element with 8 electrons in its highest main energy level is | noble gas |
| the emission of electrons from metals that have absorbed protons is called the | photoelectric effect |
