Study Notes
- Atom is the smallest unit of an element with unique properties.
- An atom is made up of subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
- Protons and neutrons determine an atom's mass, and the number of each in the nucleus identifies the element.
- Electrons orbit the nucleus.
- Atomic number (proton number) and mass number identify an element.
- Elements can be classified as metals, nonmetals, or metalloids.
- Metals conduct heat and electricity, are mostly solids, and have a silvery shine.
- Nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and electricity, and can be gases, liquids, or solids.
- Metalloids have intermediate properties and can conduct electricity when made into semiconductors.
- Periodic table displays chemical elements, shows trends based on electronic configurations, and has columns (groups) and rows (periods).
- Groups have elements with similar properties due to identical outer shell electron configurations.
- Periods represent the number of shells in an element.
- Theoretically, there are five blocks in the periodic table: s-block, p-block, d-block, f-block, and g-block.
