10. What does the periodic table tell you about an atom? Symbol tells the name of the element. Ex. (Ne is Neon) Atomic number = the # of protons in the nucleus. (and the number of electrons in a balanced or neutrally charged atom) Average Atomic mass = the weighted average one atom and its Isotopes. Atomic Mass or Mass # = how many protons and neutrons are in the nucleus.

11. Inside the center of an Atom Nucleus – the dense center of an atom. Proton- the positive charged subatomic particle, located in the nucleus. (determines the atomic number of an element) Neutron- the neutrally charged subatomic particle in side the nucleus. Isotope-an atom who’s # if neutrons is different or not equal to the number of protons. Atoms can exist as many different isotopes. (ex Carbon-12, Carbon-14)

12. Outside the nucleus of an atom Electron- the negatively charged subatomic particle of an atom. Located in clouds that exist in various energy levels or shells. General rule is n1=2, n2=8, n3=18, n4=32 but there are exceptions. Most typical exceptions are electron configurations of transition metals.

13. Significance of Valence Shells Valence Shell- the outer most energy level. (energy levels increase from the inside out) The # of electrons in the valence shells determine an atoms ability to react with other atoms. Electrons can be gained or lost from valence shells, forming ions.

14. Ions Ion-an atom that has gained or lost an electron. When an atom loses an electron from its Valence shell, the result is a positively charged ion because the # of electrons is less than the # of electrons. When an atom gains an electron in its Valence shell, the result is a Negative charged ion because the # of electrons is greater than the # of protons.

15. Element A substance that cannot be broken down into smaller substance. Elements are arranged in a certain order based on atomic number on the Periodic Table.

16. Periodic Table helps determine electron arrangement Periodic Law states that the chemical and physical properties of elements change periodically with the atomic # of elements. Periods – a horizontal row of elements. Indicates how many energy levels the atoms in that row contain. (how many orbital shells) Groups (family)- a vertical column of elements in the periodic table. Indicates how many electrons are in the valence shell. ***(The transition metals are the exception and do have different numbers of electrons in their valence shells)

17. Elements are classified into 3 groups Metals – an element that is shiny and conducts heat and electricity well. Metalloids (semiconductors) – conducts electric current better than a non metal (insulator), but not as well as a metal (conductor) Non metals – do not conduct heat or electricity.

18. Metals Alkali metal – any element in Group 1 of the periodic table. Alkaline Earth Metal- any element in Group 2 of the periodic table. Transition Metal – any element in Groups 3-12 of the periodic table.

19. Alkali Metals Found in Group 1 Have 1 valence electron – this electron can easily be removed to form a positive ion, and is the reason elements in this group are highly reactive with other atoms. (especially elements in Group 7) Are typically soft and shiny React violently with water. Typically not found in nature as elements because they are so reative.

20. Alkaline Earth Metals Found in group 2 Have 2 valence electrons that can be lost, which causes them to form +2 ions. Not as reactive as alkali metals, but still highly reactive often forming compounds with atoms of other elements. Silvery white in color High melting points Low densities

21. Transition Metals Found in Groups 3-12 Have a complex arrangement of electrons. Only somewhat reactive, but are still capable. It takes more energy for transition metals to gain and lose their valence electrons. Can lose up to 4 electrons. Are malleable – can be stretched and shaped. Are often shiny – or lustrious.

22. Metalloids- Semiconductor Exist in diagonal a diagonal cluster from group 13 – 17. Only 6 elements- boron, silicon, germaninum, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium Able to conduct heat and electricity under certain

23. Non-metals Halogens - Group 17 – Very reactive Contain 7 electrons in valence shell. Tendency to gain an electron. Like to bond with Alkali metals. Smell bad. Noble gases – Group 18, “Inert gases”. Exist as single atoms. Very rarely form molecules. 8 valence electrons that saturate the valence shell. (fill up to capacity)
