Term
Definition
Periodic Table   the chart scientists use to organize and classify all the known elements  
🗑
Element   a pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions  
🗑
Element Symbol   a symbol that represents the element, usually one or two letters  
🗑
Atomic Number   the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom; atomic number determines the chemical properties of the atom  
🗑
Atomic Mass   The combined mass of all of the protons and neutrons of an atom. Since each proton and neutron has a mass of approximately one unit (called an atomic mass unit) the atomic mass is approximately equal to the number of protons and neutrons.  
🗑
Period   a horizontal row on the periodic table  
🗑
Group   a vertical column on the periodic table  
🗑
Family   a group  
🗑
Chemical Formula   a group of chemical symbols and numbers that shows the number of atoms of each element in a molecule  
🗑
Metals   an element that conducts heat and electricity well, is shiny, and can be hammered into sheets or drawn into wires  
🗑
Nonmetals   an element that does not conduct heat or electricity well and is dull and brittle or gaseous  
🗑
Metalloids   an element that has some properties of both metals and nonmetals  
🗑
Noble Gases   the six elemental gases that does not naturally react with other elements  
🗑
Reactivity   the tendency of a substance to undergo chemical changes  
🗑
Dmitri Mendeleev   Russian chemist who developed a periodic table of the chemical elements and predicted the discovery of several new elements  
🗑
Trend(patterns on the periodic table)   specific patterns found in the periodic table, includes patterns in size and electronic properties  
🗑
Energy Level   the energy level increases as the number of electrons increases and the atom needs more electron shells  
🗑
Valence Electrons   an electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond  
🗑
Chemical Property   a characteristic of a substance that cannot be observed without changing the identity oft he substance  
🗑
