    Study Notes

    Gases and Their Properties

    • Oxygen is used as an aid to breathing.
    • Carbon dioxide is slightly denser than air and very reactive.
    • Liquid nitrogen is used to fast-freeze food and store cells and tissues.
    • Nitrogen reacts with burning magnesium to form magnesium nitride.
    • Nitrogen dioxide is a gas that doesn't support combustion and is a known air pollutant.
    • Nitrogen is neutral, slightly soluble, and slightly denser than air.
    • Nitrogen reacts with hydrogen to form ammonia and is used to manufacture ammonia.
    • Oxygen is used to remove oxygen and is slightly soluble.
    • Argon is a variable gas in terms of its presence and is approximately 1% in the atmosphere.

    Atmosphere Composition

    • Oxygen makes up about 21% of the atmosphere.

    Elements and Periodic Table

    • Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of electricity.
    • There are two liquid elements in the Periodic Table: Mercury (Hg) and Bromine (Br).
    • Non-metals are typically dull, brittle, and poor conductors of electricity.
    • Carbon is the only non-metal that is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
    • A compound is a substance that contains two or more elements chemically bonded together.
    • There are approximately 118 elements in the Periodic Table.
    • The Periodic Table is organized by rows (periods) and columns (groups) based on the elements' atomic numbers and properties.
    • The noble gases are a group of elements that are unreactive and include Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), and Radon (Rn).
