This element has 29 protons.
Copper
100
What are the three types of elements?
Metals, nonmetals and metalloids
100
What is the name given to the amount of energy it takes to remove an electron?
Ionization energy
100
What is the largest planet in the solar system?
Jupiter
100
How many protons, neutrons and electrons are in a neutral element of potassium?
19 P and E
20 N
200
Period 2, Group 15
Nitrogen
200
How is the periodic table arranged? (2 parts)
In order of atomic number and grouped by similar properties
200
What is a period 4 element that should have a Zeff of 3
Aluminum
200
Give an element that is liquid at room temperature.
Mercury or bromine
200
What charge would you expect a magnesium ion to have?
+2
300
The smallest element in period 4.
Krypton
300
What properties would you expect a metal to have?
-Shiny, malleable, ductile and good conductors
300
Why do group 8A elements have highest ionization energies (include protons in your explanation).
They have the most protons of any element in their period, meaning the pull towards the nucleus is the strongest compared to the distance from the nucleus.
300
Where would you find an organisms that is a halophile?
In a very salty environment.
300
What do two isotopes of the same element have in common and what do they have different?
Same protons - possibly same electrons
Different number of neutrons, different masses.
400
The element with the highest ionization energy in group 2
Beryllium
400
If element 119 were to be discovered or created, how many energy levels would it have?
8
400
Why do electron affinity and ionization energy have the same trend on the periodic table?
-ionization energy is the amount of energy it takes to remove an electron- electron affinity is a measure of how much an atom likes to hold onto an electron. The more an electron energy it takes to remove an electron is similar to the amount an atom likes to hold on to an electron.
400
What is the name of this statue and what country would you find it in?
Christ the Redeemer- Brazil
400
How many electron can the f subshell hold?
14
500
The element it should be easiest to remove an electron from.
Francium
500
What is an element that would have the same number of protons as oxygen, but would have a larger atomic radius than oxygen?
O- or O2-
500
We have 3 elements with their 1st, 2nd and 3rd ionization energies.
Element 1: 1st-617 2nd-981 3rd 2202
Element 2: 1st 1131 2nd-2145 3rd-2943
Element 3: 1st-376 2nd-2234 3rd-3204
Which element is a noble gas and which element has the largest atomic radius?
Element 2 is the noble gas because all the ionization energies are consistently high
Element 3 has the largest atomic radius because it is in group 1 (we can tell that after the first ionization energy the numbers jump up, meaning we've hit a full energy shell.)
500
Where was the first nuclear disaster in the United States?
Idaho!
500
Describe how an element produces different wavelengths of color?
The element absorbs energy which excite the electrons. The electrons jump to a higher energy level. As they return to their original energy shell they emit the exact amount of energy they absorbed in the form of light. Different jumps produce different amounts of light.
