chem ch 5

TermDefinition
elements arranged vertically groups
elements arranged horizontally periods
the length of each period is determined by the # of electrons that can occupy the sub levels (blocks) being filled in that period
elements in group 1 are called alkali metals
describe the alkali metals slivery appearance, soft enough to cut w a knife
elements in group 2 are called alkaline-earth metals
describe alkaline-earth metals less reactive than alkali metals, too reactive to be found in nature in pure form
hydrogens configuration 1s1
does not share the same properties as the rest of the elements of group 1, is a unique element hydrogen
helium configuration and group ns2, part of group 18
helium possesses special chemical stability just like noble gasses...since its highest occupied energy level is filled by TWO eLeCtRoNS
3d sublevel is ______ in energy than 4s sub level HIGHER
the d block elements are metals with typical metallic properties and are referred as TRANSITION ELEMENTS
groups 13-18 are which block elements p block elements (except helium)
p block elements + s block elements = main group elements
do the properties of the p block elements vary YES
hydrogen and helium are the only ______ NOT in the p block NONMETALS
the six metalloids are in what block P BLOCK
left hand side, bottom of block there are eighttttt p block metals
group 17 is called halogens
which elements are the most reactive NONmetals halogens
the metalloids or semiconducting elements are located between _______ and ________ in the P BLOCK metals and nonmetals
the metals of the p block are harder and denser than s block alkaline earth metals
the metals of the p block are softer and less dense than the d block metals
atoms are _________ the farther to the _____ they are found across a PERIOD smaller, right
smaller atoms across a period is bc the increasing positive charge of the nucleus, which attracts electrons towards the nucleus
atoms get ______ the further _______ in a GROUP larger, down
of the elements magnesium, chlorine, sodium, and phosphorus, which has the largest atomic radius phosphorus
what element has the largest atomic radius sodium
atomic radii _____ across a period decrease
f block elements are wedged in-between groups ___ and ___ in the sixth and seventh periods 3, 4
f blocks elements position reflects that they involve the filling of the ____ sublevel 4f
the first row of the f block is called lanthanides
lanthanides characterstics: shiny metals, similar in reactivity to group 2 alkaline metals
the second row of the f block is called actinides
are the actinides radioactive?? YES
atomic radius is _______ the distance between the _____ of identical atoms that are bounded together one-half, nuclei
chemical compounds form because electrons are ______, _____ or ______ between atoms lost, gained, shared
electrons available to be lost, gained, or shared in the formation of chemical compounds are called valance electrons
valence electrons _____ atoms _____ in chemical compounds hold, together
measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract electrons from another atom in the compound electronegativity
electronegativites tend to ____ across periods and ______ or remain the same down a group increase, decrease
who noticed that elements arranged in order of increasing atomic mass had similarities in their chemical properties appear at regular intervals Mendeleev
repeating patterns are referred to as periodic
who created the periodic table of elements Mendeleev
Mendeleev predicted the existence and properties of elements that would fill ____ of the spaces 3
who discovered that elements fit into patterns Bette when they were arranged according to atomic ##### moseleyyyy
properties of elements will repeat at regular intervals based on the elements atomic #'s The Periodic Law
what sublevel and group is the transition metals in d sublevel, 3-12
metalloids range from groups 13-17
what group are the noble gases in group 18
Ionization energy and electron affinity and electronegativity generally _____ across a period on the periodic table and ______ down a group increases, decreases
Atomic radius generally ________ across a period (moving left to right) and _______ down a group on the periodic table. decrease, increase
Non-metallic character ______ across a period on the periodic table, but _____ down a group increase, decrease
Metallic character _______ across a period (from left to right) and _______ down a group on the periodic table. decrease, increase
hardest most dense metals are found in d block
most chemically active halogen fluorine
does metals or nonmetals have greater ionization energies nonmetals
metals to the ______, nonmetals to the _____ left, right
Metals tend to form _______ cations
nonmetals tend to form anions
