Periodic tabletrends

TermDefinition
periods are rows going across the table
elements in teh same periods have ____ the same # of principle energy levels
groups (family) are ___ columns going down the table
elements in the same group have the same # of valence electrons
The # of principal energy levels ___ as you go down a group increases
elements have similar chemical properties because they ahem the same # of electrons in their valence shell
Clements in the same family form ___ ions with the same charge
Metals are elements on the ____ (L/R) side that form _____ ions (+/-) by _____ electrons (gaining/loosing) Left, positive, and loosing
non metals are elements on the ____ (L/R) side that form _____ ions (+/-) by _____ electrons (gaining/loosing) right, negative, gaining
Metalloids are on the ___ and exhibit properties of ____ the staircase, both metals and non metals
Metaloids are Boron, Silicon, Germnanium, Arsenic, Antimony and tellurium (aluminum tends to behave as a metal)
elements in the same group have the same charge (ex: +1 in group 1)
the relative atomic masses of elements are based on C-12 = 12.00 amu
Atomic radii ½ the distance between two adjacent nuclei in the solid phase
when going down a group atomic radii ___ because ____ increases, because there are more principal energy levels (shells)
When going across a period, atomic radii ____ because ___ decreases, the ectrons occupy the same principal energy level
when there is an _____ in nuclear charge (# of protons), the electrons are ____ increase, pulled closer to the nucleus
Across a given period of transition elements the atomic radii remains ___ in _____ because ______ constant, transition metals, electrons are filling an inner principal energy level
Ionic radii teh size of an ion
positive ions - cations - smaller than the atom they formed from because they have lost a principal energy level of electrons
negative ions - anions - larger than the atom they formed from because they have gained electrons and now have a smaller proton to electron ratio
ionization energy amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from an atom in a gaseous state
IE ____ across a period due to ___ increases, due to smaller atomic radii and a stronger nuclear charge
IE _____ down a group because ____ decreases because electrons are farther from the nucleus where they aren't as strongly attracted
electronegativity the ability of an atom to attract/gain electrons
Electronegativity _____ across a period because ______ increases, due to smaller atomic radii and a larger nuclear charge
Electronegativity ____ doen a group because ____ decreases, because electrons are further from the nucleus where they aren't as strongly attracted
metals are on the ___ side off the staircase left
most reactive metals are at the _______ lower left hand corner and have the greatest metallic character
metals are good conductors, malleable and ductile, have a later and solids at room temp (except for mercury)
metals have few ____, they _____ to form _____ ions, they have ____ ionization energy and electronegativity, and have ____ melting and boiling points. valence elctrons, lose electrons, positive, low, high
nonmetals are on the ___ side of the staircase right
non metals have ____ valence electrons, they ___ electrons to form __ ions, they have ___ IE and EN 4-8, gain, negative, high
non metals are found in the upper right

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
