Why does it matter?
100

Where are the electrons found in an atom?

In electron shells/clouds/rings on the outside of the nucleus.

100

How are elements arrange in the periodic table?

The elements are arrange in order of atomic number or number of protons.

100

What is the difference between a chemical and a physical change?

A physical change can be reversed and a chemical change cannot be reversed easily.

100

What is the simplest unit of matter?

An atom

100

According to the law of conservation of mass –

matter is not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

200

What are the three subatomic particle (small particles) that make up an atom?

Protons and Neutrons make up the nucleus of the atom and the electrons are found outside the nucleus.

200

What is the difference between a group and a period?

Groups form vertical columns and gives # of valence electrons.  Periods are horizontal rows and gives # of energy shells.

200

What are three signs of a chemical change?

Color change, Formation of a gas, Temperature change, and Formation of a precipitate

200

Why do atoms bond or react with each other?

To become stable and have a full octet or 8 valence electrons.

200

The majority of an atom's volume comes from-

the electrons in motion around the nucleus

300

Draw the Lewis Structure of B

A capital B surrounded by three electrons.

300

What is the most reactive group of nonmetals?

Group 1 (The Halogens).

300

What are three physical properties of a metal?

Conductivity, Malleability, Magnetism, and Luster

300

Which of the following equations is correctly balanced? 

A.    N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

B.    H2 + O2 → 2H2O 

C.    2Ag2O → Ag2 + O2 

D.    N2 + H2 → NH3 


A.    N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

300


G. reactive and lose electrons

400

What subatomic particle do we use to identify an atom?

Protons

400

Why are the Noble Gases considered stable?

Each element in the Noble gases has a full outer electron shell or have at least 8 valence electrons (Helium has 2).

400

In which of the following examples has a chemical reaction occurred? 

A    After putting liquid batter into a hot pan, the batter solidifies and begins to turn brown.

B    After turning on a blender filled with fruits, the fruit is chopped up and mixed together. 

C    After taking a tray filled with ice cubes out of the freezer, the cubes begin to melt. 

D    After adding a spoonful of sugar to a mug of hot coffee, the sugar dissolves completely. 

A    After putting liquid batter into a hot pan, the batter solidifies and begins to turn brown.

400

What are two facts that will always be true about the reactants and the products of a chemical reaction that takes place in a closed space?

The number of atoms in the reactants and the number of atoms in the products are the equal. The mass of the reactants and the mass of the products are equal.

400

What term best describes the change in temperature during a chemical reaction that causes the products to become cold (decrease in temperature)?

Endothermic Reaction


500

Draw the Bohr's Model for Fluorine.

List the following elements in order of their reactivity. Start with the most reactive and move to the least reactive. Ca , C, Br, K, He

K, Ca, Br, C, He

An experiment is performed in which a crystalline substance is added to a beaker filled with room temperature water. The following observations are made:  

I. The crystals dissolve  

II. A precipitate is formed.  

III. The bottom of the beaker feels warm to the touch.  

IV. Bubbles begin forming within the water.  

All of the observations are evidence of a chemical change EXCEPT -

observation I.
