Timeline of the atom |
Early model atoms where just spheres 1898 Thomson discovered electrons also thought there was a random sea of positive charge around -plum pudding mode Geiger and marsden did gold sheet test with alpha particles where some were reflected Rutherford used results to conclude that the positive had to be in a small concentrated area -named nucleus Bohr deduced that electrons had to orbit at specific distances otherwise they would spiral inwards |

|
What are group 0 |
Group 0 are noble gases They have a full outer shell of electrons This means they are very stable and not reactive |
|
What are group 1 |
Group 1 are alkali metals One electron in outer shell Low melting and boiling pints Low density so float When mixed with a non metal they form an ionic compound React with oxygen and water so are stored under oil When they react with water they produce a hydroxide and hydrogen gas |
|
What are group 7 |
They are halogens and have 7 electrons in outer shell React with metals to make ionic salts A more reactive halogen will displace a less reactive halogen from an aqueous solution of its salt |
|
Three types of chemical bonds |
Ionic Covalent Metallic |
|
What is ionic bonding |
When a metal atom loses electrons to become positively charged and non metal atoms gain electrons to become negatively charged to from bond Strong electrostatic force of attraction |
|
Properties of ionic compounds |
Giant structures of ions High melting and boiling points Do not conduct electricity when solid because ions can’t move or molten |
|
What is a covalent bond |
Covalent bond is a shared pair of electrons between atoms Used to gain a full outer shell of electrons Occur in non metallic elements e.g oxygen Compounds of non metals |
|
What are “small molecules “ |
A small number of non metal atoms joined together by covalent bonds Can’t conduct electricity Usually have low melting points and boiling points Have weak intermolecular forces holding them together |

|
Properties of diamond |
Diamond is a giant covalent structure Made of carbon atoms which have 4 strong covalent bonds with other carbon atoms Has high melting and boiling point Doesn’t conduct electricity |
|
Properties of graphite |
Giant covalent structure which is layered in an hexagonal way Each carbon atom forms 3 covalent bonds with other carbon atoms Layers are connected by weak intermolecular forces so layers can slide past each other among graphite soft and slippery Has one delocalised electron so can conduct heat and electricity |
|
