Two Classes of Elements What are the Two Main Classes of Elements? Metals and NonmetalsNoble Elements

What Makes Elements Stable? (Lose e -1 ) (Gain e -1 ) Losing or Gaining e -1. Do metals Lose or Gain e -1 ? Do nonmetals Lose or Gain e -1 ? Oxidation Reduction

Stabilizing Sodium How many e -1 for Na? 11e -1 What is the noble element closest to Na? Ne How many e -1 for Ne? 10e -1 Sodium loses/gains how many electrons? 1e -1 Na  Na +1 + e -1 (protons) + (electrons)=charge (+11)(-10)+1 Oxidation or reduction?

Stabilizing Oxygen How many e -1 for O? 8e -1 What is the noble element closest to O? Ne How many e -1 for Ne? 10e -1 Oxygen loses/gains how many electrons? 2e -1 O + 2e -1  O -2 Oxidation or reduction? (protons) + (electrons)=charge (+8)(-10)-2

Sodium Loses electrons to Oxygen Na  Na +1 + e -1 (Stable Like Neon) Ox or Red? O + 2e -1  O -2 (Stable Like Neon) Ox or Red? How many sodium atoms are needed to satisfy oxygen’s electron hunger? 2e -1 means How many oxygen atoms are needed to satisfy sodium’s electron loss? 2e -1 means Na 2 O two Na one O High Electronegativity Low Electronegativity

Oxidation Numbers All elements Lose or Gain e -1. Some have multiple loss or gain possibilities. Fe +2 Fe +3 S -2 S +4 S +6

Key Elements (99%) H +1 H -1 (99%) O -2 O -1 (Always) Li +1, Na +1, K +1, Rb +1, Cs +1, Fr +1 (Always) Be +2, Mg +2, Ca +2, Ba +2, Sr +2, Ra +2 (Always) Al +3 (with only a metal) F -1, Cl -1, Br -1, I -1 (NO 3 -1 ) ion is always +5 (SO 4 -2 ) ion is always +6
