These are positively charged parts of an atom
What are protons.
What is this elements chemical symbol?
What is Cl.
The horizontal rows on the periodic table are called...
What are periods.
What is an ion?
What is an element with a charge.
How many families did we organize yesterday?
What is 9?
These are negatively charged parts of an element.
What is an electron.
What is this elements atomic number?
What is 17.
The vertical columns on the periodic table are called...
What are groups.
When we are creating ions, are we working with all electrons or just the valence electrons?
What is just the valence electrons.
What is groups.
These parts of an atom contain no charge.
What is a neutron.
What is this elements atomic mass?
What is 35.453.
Elements in the same group have the same number of what?
What are valence electrons.
Why do elements become ions?
What is because they want a full outer shell.
Knowing how our families are organized on the periodic table, what does every element in a family (except transition metals) have in common?
What is the number of valence electrons.
The protons and neutrons of an atoms are stored where?
What is in the nucleus.
What does the atomic number tell us?
What is how many protons an element has.
Elements in the same period have the same number of what?
What are electron shells.
An element has 6 valence electrons, tell me how many electrons it has to lose or gain to reach a full outer shell and the resulting charge.
What is gain 2 valence electrons, with a resulting charge of -2.
The final family we discussed on the periodic table is called... (They have full valence electron shells)
What is Noble Gases.
What do we use to show the changing energy levels of electrons? (Think about what we've been drawing all week)
What are electron shells/orbits.
What else do I learn from the atomic number?
What is the number of electrons an element has.
An element in the 4th period and 6th group has how many electron shells and how many valence electrons?
What is 4 electron shells and 6 valence electrons.
P-3, how many valence electrons did this element have originally?
What is 5 valence electrons.
List two of the families we discussed yesterday.
What is:
Alkali Metals Alkaline Earth Metals
Transition Metals Boron Group
Carbon Group Carbon Group
Nitrogen Group Oxygen Group
Halogen Group Noble Gases
