What is the name for an atom with a different number of electrons than protons?
Why do atoms bond?
They want to have a full outer shell.
How can we use the periodic table as a tool?
we can use it to make predictions about the properties of atoms and how they will bond
What does each square on the periodic table represent?
an element
Electron, protron, and nucleus
What is the name for an atom with a different number of protons than neutrons?
Isotope
What are the three types of bonds
Ionic, covalent, and metallic
What will the group an element is in tell us about it's atoms?
How many valence electrons it will have.
What are the rows and columns of the periodic table called?
periods and groups
Which particles orbit around the nucleus of the atom?
electrons
What is the name for an ion with a negative charge?
Why do the ions in an ionic bond stay be each other after giving/taking electrons?
Should we use P from the periodic table to make electrical wires?
No, based on it's location, it is a non metal and non metals make poor conductors of electricity.
What is the group of metals in the middle called?
transition metals
What part of the atom gives it it's identity?
number of protrons
What is an ion with a positive charge called?
Cation
How is covalent bonding different than ionic bonding?
atoms are shared; not given or taken
Which two groups on the periodic table are likely to form ionic bonds?
Group 1 and Group 17
Where on the periodic table are the non-metals found?
on the right hand side, past the metalloid diagonal
Which atomic particles have a negative charge? Which have a positive charge?
electrons and protons
Which measurement is effected when isotopes gain and loose neutrons?
Atomic Mass
How is metallic bonding like ionic bonding? How is it like covalent bonding?
It creates ions, but still shares electrons.
What type of bond would hydrogen and carbon make? Why? (Your reason must be accurate for credit)
covalent bond, because they are both non metals
Which group (column) from the periodic table very rarely bonds?
Group 18, the noble gases.
What is the maximum number of electrons for the first 3 orbitals? (they are not all the same)
2,8,8
