100

The person who first published a periodic table in 1869 which was arranged in increasing atomic mass.  Gaps were left for elements not discovered yet. 

Who was Dmitri Mendeleev? 

100

This class of elements falls along the "staircase" on the periodic table. Their behavior can be changed by using mixtures. Such mixtures make excellent computer chips and are called semiconductors. 

metalloids

100

Each period of the periodic table corresponds to a(an)  _______  ______ and there are a total of _________ of them. 

What is an energy level; 7.

100

Do metals tend to have higher or lower electronegativities?

low

100

As you move from left to right across a period, the first ionization energies do what?

What is "increase?"

200

What is the symbol for gold?

What is Au?

200

Name that element: period 5, group 14 

What is tin?

200

The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called_______.

periods

200

Which ion will have the larger radius: Na+ or K+?

K+

200

Which will have the larger radius: a F atom or a F- anion?

What is a F- anion?

300

The periodic table is arranged in order of increasing ______  ______.

What is atomic number?

300

This class of elements have high luster, are good conductors, and  are solid at room temperature (except for 1.)

metals

300

For group 2 elements, which sublevel are the valence electrons located in?

s

300

This is the energy (in KJ/mol) that is required to remove an electron from an atom. 

What is "ionization energy?"

300

The ability of an atom to "pull on" other electrons that are shared in a bond. 

What is "electronegativity?"

400

The ________    __________ states that the physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers. 

What is the periodic law?

400

This group of metals contains groups 3-12 and are also called the d block.

What are the transition metals?

400

What do elements of the same periodic periods have in common?

principle (n) energy levels

400

What is the general trend for electronegativity and electron affinity as you go down a group?

What is "They both decrease".

400

Arrange these elements from smallest to largest atomic radii: As, Ti, Ca, Br.

What is Br < As < Ti < Ca

500

Elements in the same _________ have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of _________ electrons. 

What is "group" and "valence"?

500

These elements are found in the second row of the f-block elements and are part of the inner transition metals. 

What are the actinides?

500

The number of valence electrons for the halogens is always ______.  They need ________ (a number) electron(s) to have an octet (8) of valence electrons and be stable like them! (Except for small helium, of course!)

What is 7 and 1?

500

Why does the atomic radius generally increase moving down a group of elements?

The number of occupied energy levels increases so the effective nuclear charge decreases (because there are more core electrons which increases the shielding effect.) 

500

Arrange these 5 elements in order of smallest to largest first ionization energy (in KJ/mol):  

At, Br, Cl, F, I.

  What is At < I < Br < Cl < F
