Each element is composed of extremely small, indivisible particles called atoms. 2. All atoms of a given element are identical to one another in mass and other properties, but the atoms of one element are different from the atoms of all other elements. 3. Atoms of an element are not changed into atoms of a different element by chemical reactions; atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. 4. Compounds are formed when atoms of more than one element combine in whole number ratios. A specific compound always has the same relative number and kind of atoms. - correct answers Dalton's Atomic Theory - correct answers Law of Conservation of Matter and Constant Composition JJ Thomson's CRT, Millikan's Oil Drop expt., discovery of radioactivity, Rutherford's alpha particle expt. - correct answers Groundbreaking experiments that led to the understanding of atomic structure Proton -charge: positive (+1) -mass: 1.0073 amu Neutron -charge: none (neutral) -mass: 1.0087 amu Electron: -charge: negative (-1) -mass: 5.486 x 10^-4 - correct answers The three elementary particles along with their charges, symbols, and relative masses - correct answers The structure of the atom number of protons in the nucleus (subscript) - correct answers Atomic Number total number of protons and neutrons (superscript) - correct answers Mass Number Alkali metals - correct answers Group 1A Alkaline Earth Metals - correct answers Group 2A Halogens - correct answers Group 7A Noble Gases - correct answers Group 8A metals: left side of the chart nonmetals: right side of chart (except H) metalloids: Border the stair-step line - correct answers The location of metals, metalloids, and nonmetals on the periodic table. Metals: ; lose electrons easily Nonmetals: gain electrons easily Metalloids: - correct answers Basic properties of metals, nonmetals, metalloids, and noble gases H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2 - correct answers Diatomic elements -form from the electrostatic attraction between the positive cations and negative anions -composed of a metal cation and a non-metal anion -metal cation and a polyatomic anion - correct answers Characteristics of an ionic bond and what elements form them -The charge on the cation becomes the subscript on the anion. -The charge on the anion becomes the subscript on the cation. - correct answers Writing formula for ionic compound - correct answers Characteristics of a covalent bond and what elements form them Acid: substance that produces H+ in water Base: substance that produces OH- in water - correct answers The chemical formulas and names of acids, and bases (including which acids/bases are strong/weak) - know the definitions of acids and bases.
