Question
Answer
What did Mendeleev recognize?   When the elements were arranged in order of increasing atomic mass certain similarities in their chemical properties appeared at regular intervals  
🗑
Who made the first periodic table?   Mendeleev  
🗑
What led Mendeleev to leave blank spaces on his periodic table?   he predicted the existence and properties of the elements that he believed would fill the spaces.  
🗑
What was wrong with Mendeleev's table?   Most of the elements could be arranged in order of increasing atomic mass but a few could not.  
🗑
What did Moseley discover about atomic structure?   that the atomic number is the basis for the organization on the periodic table  
🗑
How did Moseley arrange his periodic table?   by increasing number of protons in the neclues  
🗑
What is periodic law?   The physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers  
🗑
Is the periodic law based upon Mendeleev's or Moseley's PT?   Moseley  
🗑
Is the modern PT from Moseley or Mendeleev?   Moseley  
🗑
Representative elements include group numbers   1-8  
🗑
Transition elements include   the middle section  
🗑
Inner Transition elements include   the bottom two rows  
🗑
What are the three main catagories of elements?   metals,nonmetals, and metalloids  
🗑
The ability of a substance to be hammered into sheets   malleable  
🗑
The ability of a substance to be drawn out into wire   ductile  
🗑
material which permits the flow of energy   conductor  
🗑
Break or shatter easily   brittle  
🗑
Why do elements in the same group have similar chemical properties?   they have the same number of electrons  
🗑
Where are the s block elements located?   groups 1-2 (the left side)  
🗑
Where are the p block elements located?   groups 13-18 (the right side)  
🗑
Where are the d block elements located?   groups 3-12 (the middle section)  
🗑
Where are the f block elements located?   bottom 2  
🗑
What arrangement of electrons is particularly stable?   having a full outer energy lever (also called an octet)  
🗑
How many naturally occurring elements?   92, 93+ are man-made  
🗑
Metals are ...   left of zigzag on PT shiny solid at room tempurature conduct heat/electricity malleable ductile react with some acids to form hydrogen gas  
🗑
All metals are solid except   mercury  
🗑
Nonmetals are ...   right of zigzag generally gasses or brittle at room temp poor conductors  
🗑
Nonmetals are generally gasses or brittle at room temp except   bromine  
🗑
Metalloids are ...   along the zigzag properties of both metals and nonmetals  
🗑
Group I of the PT is also known as the   alkali metals/ sodium family  
🗑
Group I of the PT properties are   extremely chemically reactive one valance electron e- conf. always ends in s^1 developed charge +1 in chem. rx.  
🗑
Group II of the PT is also known as   alkaline earth metals/ calcium family  
🗑
Properties of Group II on the PT are   chemically reactive two valance electrons e- conf. always ends in +2 develop a charge of +2 in chem. rx.  
🗑
Group III on the PT also known as   boron family  
🗑
Properties of Group III on the PT are   moderately chemically reactive three valance electrons e- conf. always ends in s^2 p^1 develop a charge of +3 in chem. rx.  
🗑
Group IV on the PT is also known as   carbon family  
🗑
Properties of Group IV are   somewhat chemically reactive 4 valence electrons e- conf. ends in s^2 p^2 develop charge of + or - 4 in a chemical reaction  
🗑


   

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.
