Study Notes
Classification of Elements
- Strontium (Sr) is classified as a metal.
- Magnesium (Mg) is also a metal.
- Fluorine (F) is categorized as a non-metal.
- Nitrogen (N) is considered a non-metal.
- Arsenic (As) is classified as a metalloid.
Properties of Metals
- Metals are known for their ability to conduct electricity.
- They exhibit malleability, allowing them to be shaped without breaking.
- Metals are typically not brittle and are solid at room temperature (except mercury).
- Metals do not exist in a gaseous state at room temperature.
Atomic Structure of Xenon
- Xenon-136 (136Xe) contains 54 protons and 54 electrons.
- It has a total of 82 neutrons.
Classification of Specific Elements
- Neon (Ne) is a noble gas.
- Magnesium (Mg) is an alkaline earth metal.
- Bromine (Br) is classified as a halogen.
- Cesium (Cs) is recognized as an alkali metal.
- Chlorine (Cl) is also categorized as a halogen.
Nonmetals in Period 5
- Iodine (I) is identified as the nonmetal element found in period 5 of the periodic table.
Reactivity of Elements
- Cesium (Cs) is considered to be the most reactive element among Argon (Ar), Strontium (Sr), Beryllium (Be), and itself.
