100

The SI (metric) base unit for length

Meter

100

The three parts of an atom.

Proton, neutron, and electron

100
Changing these subatomic particles in an atom create different isotopes

Neutrons.

100

Mendeleev arranged his table by increasing atomic mass, but today we arrange it by this.

Atomic number

100

The number of valence electrons in an atom increases as you move this direction on the periodic table.

Left to right.

200

The unit that is larger than a liter by a factor of 3.

Kiloliter

200

The subatomic particles that are inside the nucleus.

Protons and neutrons.

200

This subatomic particle is the same for all isotopes of an element

Protons


200

These elements, found between metals and nonmetals, share properties of both.

Metalloids

200

Atomic radius gets larger when you move this direction in a group on the periodic table.

Down

300

The equivalent to 987 mm in meters.

0.987 meters

300

The only part of the atom that does not contribute to its mass.

Electron

300

The mass number of this oxygen isotope.

16.

300

The vertical columns on the periodic table are called this.

Groups

300

As you move left to right across the periodic table, ionization energy generally does this.

Increases

400

476000000 in scientific notation

4.76 x 10^8 

400

In order to create a neutral atom, these two subatomic particles must be equal in value.

Protons and Electrons

400

The isotope of carbon with 8 neutrons.

Carbon-14

400

All elements in the same group have this in common.

Number of valence electrons.

400

These elements in Group 18 usually don’t have electronegativity values because they do not chemically bond.

Noble Gases

500

The wavelength of red light is about 6.5 × 10⁻⁷ meters. Express this in nanometers (nm) (10-9 m).

650 nm

500

An atom has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons. Identify the element and its charge.

Chlorine; neutral

500

An atom has 15 protons, 16 neutrons, and 15 electrons. Write the isotope’s name and symbol in standard notation.

Phosphorous-31

500

Although both belong to Group 1, hydrogen is often placed separately from the alkali metals. Explain why this is.

It does not share the same metallic properties with the other alkali metals in this group.

500

Explain why atomic radius increases down a group, but decreases across a period.

As you add electron shells down a group, the radius gets larger; as you add an electron to the shell across a period, they are pulled in more by added protons.
