what elements have a lot in common | same periods |
how many periods are there, how many groups/families | 7, 18 |
what is the 1st group called | alkali metals |
what is the 2nd family called | alkaline earth metals |
what is the 17th group called | halogens |
what is the 18th family called | noble gases |
what are noble gases | gases that do not react well with other elements |
Name 3 characteristics of metals such as cobalt | shiny, solids at room temperature, good heat/electricity conductors |
Name 3 characteristics of nonmetals such as oxygen | usually gases at room temperature, brittle solids, DO NOT conduct heat/electricity well |
synthetic element | man-made element, above the atomic number 92 |
if a metal can be easily hammered into a shape it is called | malleable |
alkaline earth metals are | highly reactive |
transition metals are | less reactive |
what are metalloids | have properties of metals and nonmetals |
what do we call something in between a conductor and an insulator | a semi-conductor |
the atomic mass is the number of | protons + neutrons |
protons are equal to | electrons |
the number of neutrons is | atomic mass-atomic number |
