What is the increasing trend for atomic radius?
This subatomic particle affects the types of chemical reactions an atom can undergo
What is the electron?
A vertical column on the periodic table
What is a family/group?
Elements in the same period have the same number of this structure
What are electron shells?
The elements in this group are likely to form an ion with a +1 charge
What are alkali metals?
These elements are one valence electron away from full valence shells
What are halogens?
Elements in the same group have the same number of this
What are valence electrons?
The elements in this group are unlikely to become ions
What are noble gases?
This is the trend for increasing ionization energy
What is increasing upwards and to the right?
This group bonds well with halogens because they have one valence electron
What are alkali metals?
These elements react with halogens to form salts
What are the alkali metals?
This property is what is now used to arrange the elements on the periodic table
What is the atomic number?
These ions are smaller than their parent atoms
What are cations?
As we move up a group on the periodic table the ionization energy increases for this reason
What is because the valence electrons are closer to the nucleus?
The elements in this group are inert because of their full valence shells
What are noble gases?
Elements that belong in the same group have this in common
What are the number of valence electrons?
This trend follows a different direction from the other trends we learned
What is atomic radius?
Positive ions are smaller in size than neutral atoms because of this
What is having a stronger positive pull from the nucleus?
You do not have to answer this in the form of a question. Please arrange the following elements based on decreasing ionization energy: Gallium, Krypton, Calcium and Arsenic
Krypton, Arsenic, Gallium, and Calcium
This element is the most reactive of the halogens
What is fluorine?
Elements in this family are most likely to lose 2 valence electrons to have a full valence shell
What are the alkaline earth metals?
