Matter
10

What number do you use to find the number of protons in an atom?

The Atomic Number

10

Name all 3 types of subatomic particles.

Protons, neutrons, electrons

10

What is the difference between an atom and an ion?

Atoms: Neutral, same number of protons & electrons

Ions: Charged, have either more or less electrons than protons.

20

I am made up of two or more different types of particles. What am I?

A Mixture

20

What are the names for rows and columns on the periodic table?

Rows: Periods

Columns: Groups

20

What is the maximum number of electrons in the first energy shell?

2

20

When are atoms the most stable?

When they have 8 valence electrons.

30

Baking a cake results in what kind of change?

Chemical Change

30

Why do elements in the same group have similar chemical properties?

Same number of valence electrons, so they react in similar ways and have similar chemical properties.
30

The sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is known as the _________

Atomic Mass

30
How are ions formed?
Ions are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons and become electrically charged.
40

Describe the characteristics of a physical change.

No new substance formed - only changes in appearance.

Changes in state. Usually reversible.

40

What is another name for Group 18 elements?

Noble Gases

40

What is a "Valence Shell"?

The outermost energy level (shell) of an atom that contains electrons.

40

Draw the Bohr diagram for a Magnesium ion

50
What is the difference between an element and a compound?

Element - made up of only one type of atom.

Compound - substances made from atoms of different elements joined by chemical bonds.

50

Hydrogen, Sulfur, and Xenon are all what type of element?

Non-metals

50

Draw the Bohr diagram for Si


50

An element in Group 3 will have what ion charge, and why?

+3

Atoms in this group have 3 valence electrons. It will be easier for elements in this group to form ions by losing those 3 valence electrons rather than gaining 5.

60

Name 1 difference between a homogeneous mixture and a heterogeneous mixture

HOMOGENEOUS: evenly mixed, looks the same everywhere, cannot see differences

HETEROGENEOUS: not evenly mixed, different parts can be seen


60

Lithium, Potassium, and Rubidium belong to what family?

Alkali metals

60

How many neutrons does Silver have?

Atomic Mass - Atomic Number = Neutrons

108 - 47 = 61

60

What is a multivalent metal?

A metal that can form ions in more than one way.
