Atoms
What are the three subatomic particles?
Protons, Neutron, electrons
What is a column on the Periodic table mean?
The amount of valence electrons in an atom.
What is the difference between and ionic bond and covalent bond?
Covalent bonds are the sharing of valence electrons. Ionic bonds are the transfer of valence electrons.
What is the difference between Lewis, Bohr, and Electron Cloud Diagrams?
Lewis dot structures use dots to model molecular bonds and Bohr model the whole atom, not just its valence electrons and bonds.
What information can you determine from elements in the same column?
They have the same amount of valence electrons, and most of the time are in the same family.
Ionic bonds usually occur between what types of elements on the periodic table?
Metal and non metals.
What is atomic mass?
The atomic mass is the mass of each atom.
What information is present in each element’s box on the Periodic Table of Elements?
The symbol, atomic mass, atomic number.
Covalent bonds usually occur between what types of elements on the PT?
Covalent bonds usually occur between only non-metals.
What is an anion?
An anion is an atom or molecule that is negatively charged. an cation is an atom or molecule that is positively charged.
What information can you determine from elements in the same row?
How many orbitals there are.
What information does the atomic number give you?
The amount of protons and electrons in an neutrally charged atom.
