What subatomic particle identifies an element? hint: this # of particles NEVER changes

Protons

100

Name the 3 subatomic particles, their charges, and where each is located in an atom

Neutron Neutral Charge-nucleus

Proton Positive Charge- Nucleus

Electron Negative Charge-outside of the nucleus

100

Which 2 types of elements are Ionic Bonds formed between?

1 Metal and 1 Non-metal

Or

1 positively charged element AND 1 negatively charged element(or polyatomic ion)

100

Name the model that illustrates an element by using the atomic symbol surrounded by dots to represent valence electrons. 

Electron Dot Diagram OR Lewis Dot Structure

100

What is the name of the Ionic Compound NaCl ?

Sodium Chloride

200

Name any group of periodic elements. Not the #'s but the names of the groups. 

Alaki Earth Metals, Alkaline Earths, Noble Gasses, Transition Metals, Metalloids, Halogens, etc. 

200

Which subatomic particle has the MOST mass of all 3?

Neutron

200

What is the charge of the element Neon or Ne and why?

0 or Neutral- because it has a full outer shell/electron orbital/energy level. 

200

Which type of compounds are double and triple bonds most commonly found in?

covalent compounds

200

Which Law represents the reason why we must balance chemical equations?

The law of conservation of mass

300

What is matter?

What is anything that has mass and takes up space

300

Which 2 particles make up an elements mass #? Where are they Located?

Protons and Neutrons. In the nucleus

300

What 2 types of elements make up a covalent compound?

2 metals
300

What is the name of the following model of an atom?

The bohr model

300

List the steps for naming an Ionic compound?

1. Name the first element/polyatomic ion as is

2. Add the suffix "-ide" to the end of the 2nd element*

*if it's a polyatomic ion and not a single element name the polyatomic ion as it's listed on the back of the periodic table. 

400

What are 4 of the 5 states of matter?

Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma, Bose-Einstein Condensates

400

What is the difference between an ion and an isotope?

In an ion the atom has gained or lost electrons so the number of electrons is no longer equal to the number of protons. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons but a different number of neutrons, resulting in a different mass number. 

400

Determine the ionic compound for Mg and Cl

MgCl2

400

How are  ionic compounds named?

  • Name the first element as listed on the PT

  • Add the suffix "-ide" to the end of any single element

  • If any polyatomic ions are within the compound name them as listed on the back of your periodic table.

400

500

What is the term for an element with a variety of "types" which differs in the # of neutrons it has. Name the term and give me any example. 

Isotope. Carbon-11

500

Which electron orbital is the ONLY one that cannot have 8 electrons within it?

The very 1st electron orbital

500

How do you identify the most common isotope?

The most common isotope is the one represented on the periodic table. ie. Carbon's most common isotope is Carbon-11


500

What charge does Pb(III) have?

3+
