Atoms and Their Parts
These are the 3 main subatomic particles in an atom.
What are protons, neutrons and electrons?
Each box on the periodic table represents this.
What is an element?
The outermost shell of electrons is called this.
What is the valence shell?
This group is known at the noble gases.
What is Group 18?
This element is one that humans breather in to survive.
What is Oxygen?
This subatomic particle has a negative charge.
What are electrons?
Elements in the same column (group) have this in common.
What are similar chemical properties and same number of valence electrons?
This type of bond involves sharing electrons.
What is covalent bonds?
This group contains highly reactive metals like sodium and potassium.
What is Group 1 (alkali metals)?
This element is used in pencils (even though people call it "lead").
What is carbon (graphite)?
Protons and Neutrons are located here.
What is the nucleus?
The atomic mass of an element represents this.
What are the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus?
This type of bond involves transferring electrons.
What is an ionic bond?
This group contains elements like fluorine and chlorine.
What is Group 17 (Halogens)?
This element is liquid at room temperature and toxic?
What is Mercury?
This is the charge of a neutron.
What is neutral (no charge)?
This element has the atomic number 1.
What is Hydrogen?
This many electrons can fit in the first energy level.
How many is 2?
All elements in Group 18 have this in common.
What is full valence shells?
This element is the most abundant in the universe.
What is Hydrogen?
This determines the atomic number of an element.
What is the number of protons?
When an element is described as "synthetic," it means this.
What is man-made and not naturally occuring on Earth?
This is the maximum number of valence electrons an atom can have.
What is 8?
This is the name of the elements in the middle of the table, often used in construction and electronics.
What are Transition metals?
This element is named after the sun.
What is Helium (from "Helios," Greek for sun)?
