All Matter is made of these.

What is an Atom

100

These are the 3 subatomic particles 

What are protons, neutrons, and Electrons 

100

Organizes all the known elements

What is the periodic table of elements?

100

This is how you determine atomic mass/weight 

What is add protons and neutrons?

100

The only subatomic particle not considered to have mass. 

What is the electron?

200

This law is the reason that all chemical reactions must be balanced 

What is the Law of the Conservation of matter? 

200

The only subatomic particle with no charge 

What is the neutron? 

200

The atomic number of Neon

What is 10?

200

What is the atomic number of an atom that has 14 protons, 14 Neutrons and 15 electrons?

What is 14?

200

What is the charge of an atom that has 14 protons, 14 Neutrons and 15 electrons?

What is -1 

300
an Ion that has the same number of protons and electrons but has more neutrons.

What is an Isotope

300

These are important in chemical reactions 

What are the valence electrons?

300

Mendeleev had a break through on organizing the periodic table because he stored atoms according to this property.

What is atomic mass?

300

What is the mass number of an atom that has 14 protons, 14 Neutrons and 15 electrons?

What is 28?

Dalton's Atomic theory 

Any one of the following: 

All matter is made of atoms that cannot be divided, created, or destroyed. 

During a chemical reaction, atoms of one element cannot be converted into atoms of another elements 

Atoms of one element are identical to each other, but different to all other elements

Atoms combine in specific ratios

400

When electrons are transferred from one atom to another

What is an Ionic bond 

400

When electrons are shared evenly 

What is a covalent bond?

400

The physical characteristic that all elements of a particular period have. 

What is the same energy level/electron shell?

400

This is the atomic mass of sodium chloride.  

What is 58 atomic mass units?

400

the bond of atoms that share electrons unevenly. 

What is nonpolar covalent 

500

Model on the whiteboard and explain with words how Rutherford developed our understanding of the atom

He discovered the nucleus by conducting the gold foil experiment. By shooting positive alpha particles at a thin sheet of gold when the particles deflected he knew there must be a dense positive center.  

500

Subatomic particles such as protons and neutrons are made of these. Electrons are not. 

What are quarks 

500

Causes the noble gasses to form very few compounds 

Having a full valence shell of electrons that has no electrons to give or take from other atoms
500

This is the atomic mass of ammonium (NH4+) 

What is 18 atomic mass units 

500

Draw a diagram on the board and with your words explain how JJ Thompson's experiment altered our understanding of the Atom.  

By observing negatively charged cathode rays deflect towards a positive charged plate he discovered the electron
