Draw the electron dot notation for Silicon.

Mrs. Bryan will check your answer.

Which scientist used X-ray spectroscopy to determine the atomic number for each element? His discovery led to an update of the periodic law which now states that the properties of elements vary in a periodic way with their atomic numbers. 

Henry Moseley

Who concluded that fire could not be an element since it required oxygen to form it and made one of the first lists of elements?

Antoine Lavoisier

These elements are fairly conductive, increasingly so as temperature rises. 

Metalloids

200

True or False: Elements with more protons and electrons almost always have smaller atomic radii than those with fewer protons and electrons. 

False! As you increase in protons and electrons the # of energy levels also increases making the atomic radius larger.

Draw the electron dot notation for Boron.

Mrs. Bryan will check your answer.

Which element has a lower electronegativity? Beryllium or Calcium

Calcium

Who noticed elements in groups of 3 with similar properties and called them triads?

Johann Dobereiner

List 3 properties of metals that we discussed in class. 

Dense, ductile, malleable, lustrous solid, highly conductive, very reactive especially with nonmetals. 

300

The measure of an element's ability to attract and hold electrons when bonded to other atoms is called ________________________.

Electronegativity

300

On the basis of its position on the periodic table, what do we know about Argon?

Type of element, period #, # of energy levels, group #, # of valence electrons, group name, reactive or not and why?

It is a nonmetal. It is found on Period 3 so it has valence electrons on the 3rd energy level. Being in group 18, it has 8 valence electrons and is a noble gas. Because its outer energy level is full, it is chemically unreactive. 

300

Would carbon or oxygen act more like a nonmetal?

Oxygen; it is father from the heavy stairstep line.

400

Who organized the elements by increasing atomic mass and left blank spaces for unknown elements that he predicted would be found in the future?

Dmitri Mendeleev

400

Each family contains elements whose properties are _______________.

Similar

400

How many valence electrons do Gallium, Phosphorus, and Tin have?

Gallium: 3, Phosphorus: 5, Tin: 4

400

Is Xenon or Rubidium more reactive?

Rubidium because it is an alkali metal and they are very reactive by nature. Xenon has all 8 electrons so it is not chemically reactive.

Draw the electron dot notation for Barium.

Mrs. Bryan will check your answer. 

500

Who developed the Law of Octaves and the earliest form of the Periodic Law?

John Newlands

500

Groups 13-16 are called the "mixed groups" because...

They have metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.

500

How does the atomic radius change from RIGHT to LEFT across the periodic table?

How does the electronegativity change from TOP to BOTTOM along the periodic table?

It increases.

It decreases. 

500

Which element has the largest atomic radii? Potassium, Bromine, Cesium, Astatine

Cesium

How does the periodic table model the designed structure of atoms?

The rows represent the energy levels. The placement of the elements in columns is related to the arrangement of the electrons in the atoms.
