H.Chem Unit #1 Test

2024 Honors Chemistry Unit #1 Test

TermRelative Info
atomic number # of protons (p⁺) determines elemental identity
avg. atomic mass # of protons (p⁺) + # of neutrons (n⁰)
where is the "atomic number" located on the periodic square? top right corner
where is the "avg. atomic mass" located on the periodic square? lower middle
avg. atomic mass is always (???) than atomic number greater
horizontal rows on the pt periods
vertical columns on the pt groups OR families
element classification order metals to nonmetals to metalloids
what are the other names for "metalloids"? semi-metals and semiconductors
elements that are unstable as single atoms, so they exist as molecules covalently bonded to themselves diatomic elements
what is an example of a diatomic element? hydrogen
group 1 or 1A alkali metals
group 2 or 2A alkaline earth metals
group 17 or 7A halogens
group 18 or 8A — unreactive!! noble/inert gasses
groups 3-12 (aka. d-block) transition metals
lanthanides #'s 57-71 (aka. rare earth metal elements)
actinides #'s 89-103 (many are radioactive)
the "f-block" is comprised of lanthanides and actinides
found in "p-block" + separates metals from nonmetals zig-zag line
all "metalloids" can be found along the zig-zag line
"metalloids" have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals
elements B, Ge, Si, Sb, As, Te, and Po are metalloids
what are the four "sublevels" of the periodic table? s, p, d, f
where does sublevel "s" start? @ 1
where does sublevel "p" start? @ 2
where does sublevel "d" start? @ 3
where does sublevel "f" start? @ 4
metals readily react with water to form hydroxides
what 3 groups are very reactive? alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and halogens
an element's oxidation number is also known as its charges (gold star)
stirring a soluble solute into a solvent (???) the rate of dissolution increases
exothermic reactions concern heat leaving a system
endothermic reactions concern heat coming into a system
melting, freezing, sublimation, deposition, condensation, etc. are examples of phase changes
catalysts are substances that (???) the reaction rate speed up
how do catalysts work? they lower the activation energy required for reactants to proceed to products
examples of chemical properties include flammability, toxicity, acidity, reactivity, and heat of combustion.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
