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.

Electron Count in Ions

  • Sulfide ion (S2-) has a total of 18 electrons.
  • Cobalt ion (Co3+) contains 24 electrons.
  • Silver ion (Ag+) possesses 46 electrons.
  • Iodide ion (I-) has a total of 54 electrons.

Electron Gain or Loss Predictions

  • Oxygen (O) is expected to gain 2 electrons.
  • Calcium (Ca) is expected to lose 2 electrons.
