Chp11-12 KEYFACTjamd

QuestionAnswer
Atoms all things around us are made of atoms.
Parts of an atom Nucleus, protons, neutrons, electrons
Protons positive charge
Neutrons no charge
Charges an electrical property(attracted to opposites +,-)
Electrons particles that move around the area outside of the nucleus(move in orbits)
Mass the mass of an electron is smaller than the mass of a proton of neutron.
Electron Cloud makes up most of the volume of an atom
Subatomic Particles electrons, protons, and neutrons
PROTON positive charge, +, Found in the nucleus.
NEUTRON neutral charge, 0 or n, found in the nucleus
ELECTRON negative charge, -, found in electron cloud surrounding the nucleus
Element a substance that cannot be broken down any further to make another substance by ordinary chemical means.
Pure Substance matter that has the same chemical composition throughout and cannot be separated into parts by physical means.
Examples of Naturally Occurring Elements Carbon, Oxygen, gold, Silver, Iron.(about 90 elements are found natural)
Molecule a group of two or more atoms held together by very strong chemical bonds
Molecular bonds form between atoms that share electrons.
Compounds pure substances made up of two or more different elements that are chemically joined
Combustible cannot burn
Chemical Formulas represent/identify elements, molecules, and compounds.
Mixtures forms when substances are combined in a physical way(do not change or combine chemically)
Mixture Facts can exist in all states of matter, air is a mixture of gases, alcohol and water is a mixture of two liquids. They can be separated unlike molecules and compounds
Separating Mixture Procedures evaporating, dissolving, magnetic separation, filtering, screening9seperation by particle size) and others.
Periodic Table of Elements presents and organizes information about all the elements. It is a chart that arranges the elements by their properties or characteristics.
Element Box contains the atomic number, symbol, name, and average atomic mass.
Atomic Number identifies the number of protons in the nucleus of one atom of an element. It also determines the identity of the elements.
Atomic Mass is given in atomic mass units, amu. It is the number that shows the protons the neutrons.
Model a way to show an object of idea.
Period the horizontal row in the periodic table.(#1-7)
Group vertical column in the periodic table(#1-18)
Metals located to the left of the dark step like line starting in group 13 and ending in group 16
Nonmetals elements in group 17 and 18 and some in groups 14, 15, and 16.
Chemical Property a characteristic that determines how a substance will interact with other substances during a chemical reaction
Reactivity describes how likely an element is to react and form bonds with other elements.
Ion an atom that has a positive or negative charge
Inert unable to chemically react
Alkali Metals the elements in group one of the periodic table; they are the most reactive metals; their atoms have two electrons in their outer layer
Alkaline-earth Metals the elements in group two of the periodic table; they are reactive metals but are less reactive than alkali metals; their atoms have two electrons in their outer level
Transition Metals the elements in groups 3-12; 1 or 2 electrons in the outer level; less reactive than alkaline-earth; they and good conductors of thermal energy and electric current and they have higher densities and melting points except for mercury in groups 1 & 2
Boron Group this group contains one metalloid and four metals; 3 electrons in the outer level and is reactive; it is a solid at room temperature
Nitrogen Group contains 2 non-metals, 2 metalloids, and one metal; there are 5 electrons in the outer level; reactivity varies among the elements; all but nitrogen are solid at room temperature
Oxygen Group contains 3 nonmetals, one metalloid, and one metal; contains 6 electrons in the outer level; all reactive; all but oxygen are solid at room temperature
Halogens the elements in group 17 of the periodic table; they are very reactive NONMETALS and their atoms have 7 electrons in the outer level
Noble Gases the UNREACTIVE elements in group 18 of the periodic table; their atoms have 8 electrons in the outer level (except for helium which has two electrons)
Hydrogen is placed above group one in the periodic table; Hydrogen has one electron in the outer level; it is very reactive; it is colorless, odorless gas at room temperature, low density, and reacts explosively with oxygen

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.
