| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What role does the atomic number play in the periodic table?; Atoms in the periodic table are ordered by increasing atomic number. | |
| Which contributes more to an atom’s mass and to its size?; Protons to mass, electrons to size. | |
| The mass number of an element is:; The sum of the number of protons and neutrons. | |
| The atomic number of an element refers to:; The number of protons. | |
| What are the rows in the Periodic Table called?; Periods. | |
| Elements in the same ________ have similar chemical properties.; Group. | |
| What happens to element properties across a period?; They gradually change. | |
| Relationship between max electrons in a shell and number of elements in a period?; Equal to the max number of electrons in the outermost occupied shell. | |
| Most abundant element on Earth?; Oxygen. | |
| Only stable family of elements?; Noble gases. | |
| Which particles are in the atomic nucleus?; Protons and neutrons. | |
| Nuclei of the same element with different mass numbers are called:; Isotopes. | |
| Which radiation changes mass and atomic number most?; Alpha radiation results in the greatest change in both. | |
| Why don’t protons fly apart in the nucleus?; The strong nuclear force is stronger than electric repulsion. | |
| What does C-14 represent?; Carbon with 6 protons and 8 neutrons. | |
| What nuclear process powers the sun?; Nuclear fusion. | |
| Half-life means:; Time for half the sample to decay. | |
| Complete the decay: C-14 → ? + e⁻ + ν̅; N-14. | |
| Why is lead found in uranium ores?; Uranium decays into lead. | |
| Why do living bones have more C-14 than ancient bones?; Living organisms continuously add new carbon containing C-14. | |
| What is a chemical bond?; A force of attraction between atoms. | |
| Are atoms or molecules the building blocks?; Molecules are made of atoms. | |
| How many atoms in Na₂SO₄?; 7. | |
| How many different elements in C₆H₁₂O₆?; 3. | |
| Why is rusting a chemical change?; Because iron becomes a different substance. | |
| Difference between an element and a compound?; Compounds are made of atoms of different elements. | |
| Which element name is written first in a compound?; The element farther left on the periodic table. | |
| Formula for dihydrogen sulfide?; H₂S. | |
| Electrons in the first and second shells?; 2 in the first, 8 in the second. | |
| Why does fluorine gain only one electron?; It fills its outer shell. | |
| Relationship between unpaired valence electrons and bonds formed?; They are the same. | |
| Which elements form ionic bonds?; Opposite sides of the periodic table (one loses, one gains). | |
| Electronegativity difference in ionic bonds is:; Very different. | |
| Which elements tend to form covalent bonds?; Two elements both wanting to gain electrons. | |
| How many covalent bonds does N₂ have?; 3. | |
| For a strongly covalent bond, electronegativities should be:; The same. | |
| Which is more polar: C–O or C–N?; Carbon–oxygen. | |
| What best describes H–O bonds in water?; Polar covalent. | |
| What does concentration measure? Units?; Quantity of solute per solution; g/L. | |
| Grams of NaCl needed for 15 L of a 3 g/L solution?; 45 g. | |
| Molarity of 2 moles NaCl in 0.5 L solution?; 4 M. | |
| Molecules in 0.5 mol sucrose?; 3.01 × 10²³. | |
| How much water to make a 10 g/L solution using 20 g NaCl?; 1.99 L. | |
| Balanced electrolysis of water equation?; 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂. | |
| Balanced ammonia production?; N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃. | |
| Balanced combustion of methane?; CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O. | |
| Balance: Fe + S → Fe₂S₃; 2Fe + 3S → Fe₂S₃. | |
| Why must chemical equations be balanced?; Law of mass conservation. | |
| Breaking/forming chemical bonds involve:; Changes in energy. | |
| First step of most chemical reactions:; Breaking of chemical bonds. | |
