Atoms and Stuff
What are molecules?
A group of the same atoms bonded together.
What does ”n” define?
The size of the orbital, and the limit of ”l”.
What do acids like?
Electrons.
How many elements are in the periodic table?
118.
What happens to molecules or compounds when they make a chemical reaction?
They deconstruct and reconstruct themselves.
What are compounds?
Name a major electron orbital function. (List multiple for extra points)
n, l, m_{l}, and m_{s}.
What do bases hate?
Electrons.
What do both definitions of “group” in terms of periodic table stuff mean?
That the elements in them have similarities to other elements in the same group.
What are nuclear reactions?
When an atom’s nucleus changes.
What are radioactive elements?
Elements that release radiation.
What are electron orbitals?
Where an electron could be.
How do acids and bases react?
By giving and taking electrons.
What are rows called?
Periods.
What are chemical reactions?
When two or more molecules or compounds react to make different molecules or compounds.
What are isomers?
Different compounds with the same amount of the same atoms.
What does electron spin do? (List multiple for bonus points)
Help study electrons, and generate a small magnetic field around it.
Why do acids and bases react like this?
Because of their electron transfer.
What are columns called?
Groups.
What combined with each other makes a chemical reaction?
An acid and a base.
What are alloys?
Molecules or compounds of purely metal.
Are elements 118 and beyond predicted to have electron shells?
Yes, but more like an electron soup.
How do certain acids and bases react?
Completely deconstructing and reconstructing themselves.
Is there another meaning for ”group” in terms of the periodic table stuff?
Yes.
What is a type of nuclear reaction?
Radiation.
