Question
Answer
Redox Reactions   Oxidation and Reduction  
🗑
Oxidation   -Lose electrons -Originally, meant the combination of an element with oxygen to form an oxide Ex. Mg : →Mg2+ + 2e-  
🗑
Reduction   -Gain electrons -Ex. : S : : + 2e- → : : S : : 2-  
🗑
Reducing Agents   -opposite of the reducing  
🗑
Oxidizing Agent   -opposite of reducing  
🗑
Electrometallurgy   Electric current supplies electrons  
🗑
Pyrometallurgy   Treating with thermal energy (heat) to provide electrons  
🗑
Hydrometallurgy   Using water with chemicals to gain electrons  
🗑
Five nonmetals that are gas at RT   Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Fluorine, Chlorine  
🗑
Two liquid elements   Bromine, Mercury  
🗑
protons   subatomic particle with a charge of +1  
🗑
Electrons   subatomic particle with a charge of -1  
🗑
Neutrons   subatomic particles with no charge number of neutrons determines the isotope of the element  
🗑
Isotopes   Isotopes are different types of atoms of the same element that have a different number of neutrons  
🗑
Atomic Number   • Always the number of protons the element has • Uniquely identifies the element • Always a whole number  
🗑
Mass Number   • Number of Protons and Neutrons (found in nucleus)…always a whole number.  
🗑
Atomic Mass (amu)   Mass of protons, electrons, and neutrons AVERAGED  
🗑
metals   • Lose electrons more easily that Non-Metals • Have higher melting points than non-metals • Are shiny (lustrous) • React with acids…many also react to copper (II) chloride • Conduct electricity and heat • Malleable/ductile  
🗑
non metals   • Gain electrons easily (anions) • Dull and brittle • Poor conductors of heat and electricity • Lower melting points than metals---also lower densities  
🗑
metalloids   • Physically and chemically between metals and non-metals • Boron (B), Silicon (Si), Germanium (Ge), Arsenic (As), Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te), Polonium (Po)  
🗑
Atmosphere   •Layer of gases held by the earth’s gravity •75% of the atmosphere is within 6.8 miles of the earth’s surface •78% is nitrogen (N2), 21% is oxygen (O2), 0.9% argon (Ar), and the rest, trace gasses  
🗑
Hydrosphere   The combined mass of water on, under and over the surface of the earth  
🗑
Lithosphere   The Crust and Upper Mantle Provides greatest variety of chemical resources  
🗑
Mineral   • Naturally occurring solid chemical substance formed through geological processes  
🗑
Ore   • Naturally occurring mineral or rock (an aggregate of minerals) with important elements such as metals • Is mined to extract a metal or other material  
🗑
Decisions about mining at a specific site   • Quantity of ore at the site • % of metal in the ore • Type of mining needed to extract the metal from ore • Distance of refining • Supply vs demand • Environmental impact  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
