Calculate the average atomic mass of Q. Use the mass to set the correct sig figs. Do not forget your unit.
162.5 amu
What is the charge of a Chlorine ion that contains 17 protons and 18 electrons?
-1
How many energy levels does phosphorus have?
Phosphorous (P) is in period 3, so it has 3 energy levels
Which family of elements is most electrically conductive?
Metals
What is the isotope name for a nucleus with 81 protons and 133 neutrons?
Thallium-214
Which is a chemical change: chopping wood, leaves changing color, increasing temp of solution, distilling gasoline
Leaves changing color. The chlorophyll molecules break down into component elements.
What is the difference between an element and a compound?
Elements are composed of one type of atom, compounds two or more types of atom
Explain why a state of matter change is a physical change
Physical changes result in a decrease, increase, or spread of molecules. For example, when ice melts into water, the H2O molecules do not change.
How many valence electrons does oxygen have?
Oxygen (O) is in group 16, so it has 6 valence electrons
What is another name for a homogenous mixture?
A solution
True or false: Elements can be atoms OR molecules?
True. Some elements bond with themselves in nature (like O2), some elements exist as single atoms (like Ne)
During the Gold Foil experiment, Rutherford noticed that most of the alpha particles passed directly through the foil, indicating that most of the atom was _________.
Empty space
How many electrons can be placed in the second level of a Bohr model?
8
What is the atomic number for Zn?
30
What is the isotope notation for rhodium-102?
Rh 102 Top Left 45 Bottom Left
Which two subatomic particles have an approximately equal mass?
Protons and neutrons weigh about 1 amu
Which element is brittle at room temp: Potassium, Calcium, Sulfur, Gold, Aluminum
Sulfur, because it is a nonmetal. We saw this in the metals, nonmetals, metalloids lab.
Why does argon not react with other elements?
Ar is a noble gas. Noble gasses have a full valence shell, so they are energetically stable
How many protons does sulfur have?
Sulfur's atomic number is 16, so it has 16 protons
The periodic table is organized by...
Increasing atomic number
List 3 signs of a chemical change
Heat, light, color change (usually), bubbles, new substance
How many electrons does a neutral atom of calcium have?
Calcium's atomic number is 20, so it has 20 protons. A neutral atom has the same number of protons and electrons, so 20.
What subatomic particles are in the isotope Fr-231?
p - 87, e- 87, n-144
What is the difference between the terms mass number and average atomic mass?
Mass number is equal to the number of p + n for a specific isotope. Average atomic mass is the weighted avg. of all naturally occurring isotopes for an element
Calculate the average atomic mass of R. Use the mass to set the correct sig figs. Do not forget your unit.
214.5 amu
What do you call a negative ion?
anion
What is matter?
Anything that has mass and volume
What is the unit for average atomic mass?
a.m.u.
Metal alloys are... elements, compounds, homogenous mixtures, or heterogenous mixtures?
Homogeneous mixtures. The metals are not bonded together
Draw a particle diagram of a liquid solution
Solutions are homogeneous mixtures. Should have two compounds/elements. Molecules flow but at bottom of container.
In a physical change, what happens to the organization of the atoms?
Structure of the element or compound stays the same.
In a chemical change, what happens to the organization of the atoms?
Chemical bonds between atoms are broken and new bonds form. Atoms rearrange.
Which is a chemical change: boiling water, mix dye + water, rust, paint chipping
Rust is a chemical change. The color changes and you need a chemical process to reverse it.
