Matter |
Anything that has mass and takes up space (has volume) |
|
True or False: Energy is matter? |
False; energy is not matter (light, heat, sound) |
|
Physical properties |
Describes the physical appearance and composition of a substance |
|
Chemical property |
Describes the ability of a substance into a new substance or substances |
|
Pure substance |
Made up of 1 kind of matter and has a unique set of properties (element or compound) |
|
Element |
A substance that can not be broken down any further by chemical means |
|
Compound |
A pure substance that is made from 2 or more elements chemically combined together |
|
Mixture |
A combination of pure substances |
|
What are the 2 types of mixtures? |
Homogeneous Heterogeneous |
|
Homogeneous |
A mixture that looks the same throughout and separate components are invisible (solution) |
|
Heterogeneous |
Different parts of the mixture are visible |
|
Suspension |
A cloudy heterogeneous mixture in which tiny particles of one substance are held within another (salad dressing) |
|
Heterogeneous mechanical mixture |
Several solids combined together (ex. Chocolate chip cookie) |
|
Atomic theory |
Is the study of atoms and how they combine to form matter |
|
Protons |
Have a positive charge (+1) and are found inside the nucleus |
|
Electrons |
Have a negative charge (-1) and orbit around the nucleus |
|
Neutrons |
Are neutral with no charge and are found in the nucleus |
|
Bohr-Rutherford Diagram |
An illustration of an atom that shows the arrangement and number of electrons in each shell |
|
Lewis Dot Diagram |
A diagram of an element, showing only valance (outer) electrons |
|
Periods |
Horizontal rows on the periodic table |
|
Groups/Families |
Vertical columns on the periodic table |
|
Where are metals on the periodic table? |
The left and centre |
|
Where are non-metals on the periodic table? |
Upper right |
|
Where are metalloids on the periodic table? |
They run along a downward staircase, separating the metals from the non-metals |
|
properties of metal |
Solid Lustrous Good conductors electricity and thermal energy Ductile Malleable |
|
properties of non-metals |
Gaseous Dull Powdery Brittle Poor conductors of electricity and thermal energy |
|
Properties of metalloids |
They have properties of both metals and non-metals |
|
Alkali Metals (group 1) |
Soft, silver-grey metals that react easily with water and oxygen |
|
Alkaline Earth Metals (group 2) |
Silver-grey metals that are harder and less reactive than group 1 (combines easily with other atoms) |
|
Transition Metals (group 3-12) |
Wide variety of properties |
|
Halogens (group 17) |
Coloured very reactive non-metals |
|
Noble gases (group 18) |
Non-metals that are colourless, odourless and unreactive with low melting and boiling points |
|
Atomic number |
# of protons in the nucleus of an atom, located in the top left corner |
|
Atomic Mass |
Measure of the average mass of an atom of an element, located beneath the element symbol (# of protons and neutrons in the nucleus) |
|
Ion charge |
Refers to weather an atom is (+) if it loses electrons or (-) if it gains electrons (all members of the same family/group tend to have the same ion charge |
|
Elements with less valence electrons are… |
More reactive |
|
As you go down a family you add an extra orbit, how does this change the reactivity |
Metals = increases Non-metals = decreases |
|
Ionic compound |
Formed formed from 1 or more (+) ions (metals) and 1 or more (-) ions (non-metals) |
|
Ions names for metals and non-metals |
Metal ion = element name + ion Non-metal = element name-ide |
|
Multivalent element |
A element that can form and ion in more than 1 way, written with a Roman numeral to represent the ionic charge (copper (||) = cu2) |
|
How are ions created for metals and non-metals |
Metals lose electrons (+) Non-metals gain electrons (-) |
|
How are ions created for metals and non-metals |
Metals lose electrons (+) Non-metals gain electrons (-) |
|
The overall charge of a ionic compound is… |
Neutral |
|

Ionic |
|
Group 14 metalloids form what kinda of compounds? |
Covalent |
|
Molecule |
Combination of 2 or more atoms held together by a covalent bond |
|
Covalent bond |
A connection between 2 or more non-metal atoms in which they share electrons |
|
Diatomic elements |
Elements with a subscript of 2 |
|
Polyatomic ions |
A groups of atoms, usually of different elements that act as a single ion Ex. Sulfur + 4 Oxygen = SO4 sulfate |
