Study Notes
Atomic Structure Core Notes
- Chemical changes result in new substances, while physical changes do not.
- Physical changes alter the physical state of a substance (e.g., melting, dissolving).
- Chemical changes involve breaking and forming bonds, indicated by changes in color, temperature, gas production, or a change in mass.
- Chemical reactions can be represented using chemical equations, with reactants (starting substances) forming products (new substances).
Element Arrangement in the Periodic Table
- Elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number.
- Rows are called periods.
- Columns are called groups, and elements in the same group have similar chemical properties.
- Metals are generally located on the left side of the table, and nonmetals on the right.
Electron Configuration and Valence Electrons
- Group number corresponds to the number of valence electrons an element has.
- Valence electrons determine chemical behavior; elements in the same group have similar reactivity.
- Specific periods have a certain number of electron shells.
Common Element Names and Symbols
- List of common elements with their symbols, including examples like hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and different metals.
Calculating Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons
- Mass number = number of protons + neutrons.
- Atomic number = number of protons.
- Number of electrons = number of protons (in a neutral atom).
- Neutrons = mass number - atomic number
Atomic Neutrality
- Atoms normally have the same number of electrons and protons to maintain a neutral overall charge.
- The gain or loss of electrons results in ions (charged particles).
Metals vs. Nonmetals
- Metals are located on the left side of the periodic table.
- Nonmetals are located on the right side.
- Properties such as electrical conductivity differ between metals and nonmetals.
Ionic and Covalent Bonding
- Ionic bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal.
- Covalent bonds form between nonmetals due to sharing of electrons.
Nomenclature of Ions and Compounds
- Naming rules for ions and ionic compounds based on their position in the periodic table.
- Writing formulas of ionic and covalent compounds.
- Naming and writing formulas for ionic and covalent compounds is explained using examples.
