Who is credited for the creation of our modern periodic table?

Dmitri Mendeleev

300

This scientist was credited for discovering the first subatomic particle, the electron. His model was referred to as the "Plum Pudding Model"

JJ Thomson

300

In a neutral atom, which 2 particles will always equal each other?

protons and electrons

300

How does an ion get a charge?

By gaining or losing electrons

300

Which 2 families on the periodic table are the most reactive? (write their names)

Alkali Metals and Halogens


300

This element is the most abundant metal in the earth's crust.

Aluminum (Al)

400

Studied the location and behavior of electrons. Created the "Planetary Model" of an atom.

Niels Bohr

400

How do we calculate the mass of an atom?

Mass Number = # protons + # neutrons

400

Draw a Bohr Model of Magnesium


400

How can you tell whether 2 elements will share similar characteristics/properties?

Elements that are located within the same family on the periodic table share the same number of valence electrons and have similar properties.

400

How would we write the name of this isotope?

Iodine-88

500

What was Ernest Rutherford's main contribution to Atomic Theory?

Discovered that atoms have a dense, positive center he called the nucleus.

Proposed the "Nuclear Model" of the atom

500

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons will this atom have?

Atomic Number = 26

Mass Number = 56

Protons = 26

Neutrons = 30 (56-26)

500
Explain why Noble Gases are the least reactive elements on the periodic table.

These elements have a full outer shell of valence electrons. Do not seek to share, lose, or gain any additional electrons.
