Q2 Week 2 P T Test

Q2 Week 2 Periodic Table Test

QuestionAnswer
The Atomic number is determined by only one thing → the number of ____ in the atom’s nucleus. protons
Developed a system of symbols for naming the elements, using 1–2 letters of each element’s Latin name. Jacob Berzelius
The identity of the element is always determined by its proton _____. number
The first letter of an element symbol is _____ capitalized always
Each shell or ______ level has a specific number of electrons it can “hold.” energy
_____ derives its name from Thor, the Norse god of thunder. Thorium
Atomic ____ is determined by adding the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in any atom. Mass
What is the number of electrons on each energy level known as? Electron Configuration
Most periodic tables do not list the number of what? neutrons
To find the number of neutrons we subtract the number of ____ from the atomic mass. protons
If an atom has a mass of 12 and has 6 protons, how many NEUTRONS does it contain? 6
If an atom has a mass of 7 and has 3 protons, how many NEUTRONS does it contain? 4
If an neutral atom has 2 protons, how many electrons does it have? 2
The periodic table is an arrangement of the chemical elements by ______ atomic number which displays the elements so that we can see trends in their properties. increasing
When elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, there is a regular repetition of their chemical and physical properties. What is this definition? periodic law
What is a column of elements in the periodic table having similar valence electron arrangement? family
Each element in a family or group has the same number of _____ electrons. valence
A valence electron is an electron in the ______ energy level of a neutral atom. outermost
What is a horizontal row on the periodic table of the elements; also called a series known as? period
The horizontal row number equals every atom's number of _____ levels, also called orbitals. energy
What does this describe? an element that is typically dense, solid, ductile, malleable, highly conductive, and chemically reactive, especially in the presence of nonmetal elements. metal
What does this describe? an element with characteristics between those of metals and nonmetals; also called semiconductors. metalloid
What does this describe? an element that typically has four or more valence electrons and that does not exhibit the general properties of metals. nonmetal
What is an element in Group 1 of the periodic table, having one valence electron that it can easily lose to form a 1+ cation, making it extremely reactive? alkali metal
What are elements in Group 2 of the periodic table, having two valence electrons? alkaline earth metals
What are any elements in Groups 3–12 of the periodic table, typically having one or two valence electrons? transition metals
What is an element in Group 17 of the periodic table having seven valence electrons? halogen
Because the noble gasses all have full outer energy levels, each on is inert. Which word best describes inert? nonreactive
What is the total distance from an atom’s nucleus to the outermost orbital (energy level)? Atomic Radius
The Atomic Radius ____ from left to right across a period. decreases
The Atomic Radius increases down a group→ Each row on the periodic table adds a “shell” or energy ____ to the atom, which makes the atom larger. level
What is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom? Ionization Energy
Ionization Energy tends to increase across a period because the radius decreases from left to right, so the electron you are removing is closer to the _____ and harder to remove. nucleus
What is the ability of an atom to hold electrons tightly? Electronegativity
What are negatively charged ions formed when nonmetallic atoms receive one or more electrons, making them larger than the neutral atom? Anions
What are positively charged ions formed when an atom of a metal loses one or more electrons, making them smaller than the neutral atom. Cations

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.
