Element
|
basic building blocks of matter
|
|
|
Atom
|
smallest unit of an element, still having the properties of that element
|
|
|
Compound
|
a substance made up of 2 or more elements
|
|
|
Molecule
|
smallest unit of a compound
|
|
|
subatomic particles
|
electron (-), proton (+), neutron (0), make up atoms
|
|
|
atomic number
|
number of protons
|
|
|
Atomic Mass
|
number of protons + number of neutrons
|
|
|
Nucleus
|
contains protons and neutrons
|
|
|
Isotope
|
a version of an element with a different number of neutrons
|
|
|
Valence electrons
|
electrons in outer shell
|
|
|
Noble gases (group VIIIA)
|
outer-most shells are completely filled (2 or 8 e-) and so are very stable
|
|
|
Why are there decimals in atomic mass?
|
The periodic table lists weighted average atomic mass of all isotopes of that element
|
|
|
Rows
|
"periods"
|
|
|
Columns
|
"groups" or "families"
|
|
|
Period number
|
Identifies outermost shell number
|
|
|
Diatomic molecules
|
Elements that usually are found in pairs
(H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2) |
|
|
electronegativity
|
The measure of the afinity for electrons
-F is the most electronegative element -electronegativity decreases as you move down the periodic table |
|
|
Ionization Energy
|
the energy required to pull away an electron
-ionization energy increases as you move down (to the right) the periodic table |
|
|
Atomic Radius
|
distance from the necleus to the outermost electrons
|
ur cute
|
|
Stoichiometry
|
Math in chemistry
|
Think of balancing equationsur cture i hate bkm
|
|
empirical formula
|
the smallest whole number ratio of elements in a compound
|
ilana sucks
|
|
Chemical formula
|
The actual formula of the compound
|
|
|
Atomic Mass
|
1. The number of protons + neutrons
2. The mass of the element in grams per mole 3. The mass of 1 atom of the element in atomic mass units |
|
|
mole
|
a number - 6.02 x 10^23
|
A UGLY ANImal
|
|
Anions
|
Negatively charged ions
|
|
|
Cation
|
positively charged ion
|
+
|
|
1. Intermolecular bonds
2. Intramolecular bonds |
1. Bonds between molecules that are caused from positive and negative charge. (weaker than intra. bonds)
2. Bonds between elements that are caused from sharing electrons. (stronger than inter. bonds) |
|
|
Hydrogen bond
|
formed between 2 molecules that have a H and a (F or O or N)
[intermoleculer bond) |
|
|
Covalent Bond
|
Formed when 2 atoms share valence electrons
|
brianne killed bay
|
|
Ionic Bond
|
formed when 2 ions of opposite charge come together
|
kill ilana
|
|
Non-polar Molecule
|
any partial charges are cancelled out
|
|
|
'Polar' molecule
|
has side with opposite partial charges
-only a polar molecule if polar bonds dont cancel |
hi :)
