Periodic Table/ Periodic Trends

QuestionAnswer
What is a group? A column on the periodic table
What is a period? A row on the periodic table. It is tied to the energy level. The 4th row on the periodic table begins the 4th energy level.
What is periodic law? Elements in the same group are chemically similar.
What are the 3 classes of elements? metals, nonmetals, and metalloids
Which class of elements are an okay conductor, shiny and brittle? metalloids
Which class of elements are good conductors, shiny, malleable and ductile? metals
What is the octet rule? to be stable, elements want 8 valence electrons like the nearest noble gas
Which class of elements are reactive to acids and chlorides? metals
Which class of elements are brittle, dull and poor conductors? nonmetals
How can we use the periodic table to find valence? It's the last digit of the group number
Which group of metals are the most reactive? alkali metals
Which group of nonmetals are the most reactive? halogens
What is the best determination for how reactive an element it? the closer you are to a noble gas, the more reactive you are
What is the name of group 1? alkali metals
What is the name of group 2? alkaline earth metals
What is the name of groups 3-12? transition metals
What is the name of the footnote elements (sublevel f)? inner transition metals
What is the name of group 17? halogens
What is the name of group 18? noble gases
What is an ion? When an element changes the number of electrons it has
Positively charged ions are called what? cations
Negatively charged ions are called what? anions
Ions become positively charged by doing what with electrons? losing electrons
Ions become negatively charged by doing what with electrons? gaining electrons
Metals become what type of ions? What do they do with electrons? metals become cations by losing electrons
Nonmetals become what type of ions? What do they do with electrons? nonmetals become anions by gaining electrons
How many protons and electrons in S²-? What is its name? protons 16 electrons 18 sulfide
How many protons and electrons in Mg²+? What is its name? protons 12 electrons 10 magnesium ion
What is the definition of ionization energy? The amount of energy needed to remove an electron
What is the definition of electronegativity? The ability to attract electrons from a nearby atom
F or Fr Which element has the largest ionization energy? F
F or Fr Which element has the largest electronegativity? F
F or Fr Which element has the largest atomic radius? Fr
Place in decreasing ionization energy order: S,Cl and P Cl, S, P Are there any noble gases because they would have the most ionization energy? No. The order is decreasing, F has the highest ionization energy so start closest to F and work closer to Fr (which has the lowest ionization energy)
Place in increasing electronegativity order: Cs, Mg, Kr Kr, Cs, Mg Are there any noble gases (because they have 0 electronegativity)? Yes. The order is increasing so the noble gas would be first. Between Cs and Mg; Cs is closer to Fr which has the least electronegativity so it would go next.
Which element in period 3 has the largest atomic radius? Na, the closer you are to Fr the bigger you are. Also, period 3 refers to row 3. Make sure you count the rows starting with H.
Which halogen has the highest ionization energy? F. Unless you are a noble gas, F has the highest ionization energy of any element
Which alkali metal has the highest electronegativity? Li, F has the highest electronegativity, and Li is the alkali metal closest to F
What kind of ion would Al become? What did it do with electrons and what charge would it become? Al is a metal and becomes a cation. It has 3 valence electrons and metals lose their valence electrons. It would have a 3+ charge.
What kind of ion would P become? What did it do with electrons and what charge would it become? P is a nonmetal and becomes an anion. It has 5 valence electrons and nonmetals gain to fill their valence so it will gain 3 more for the 8 it needs. It would have a 3- charge.
Which has the higher ionization energy? P or Cl Cl, First make sure none are noble gases which have the highest ionization energy. Next the higher one is the one closer to F
Which has the higher electronegativity? Ne or Sb Sb First make sure none are noble gases which have zero electronegativity. Ne is a noble gas so Sb must be higher

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
