Study Notes

Subatomic Particles

  • Protons have a positive charge.

Elements

  • Non-metal elements are a type of element that does not exhibit metal properties.
  • Metalloid elements are intermediate in properties between metals and non-metals.
  • Noble gas elements are a group of elements that do not readily react with other elements.

Chemical Bonds

  • Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms.
  • Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons between atoms, resulting in the formation of ions with opposite charges.

Ions and Isotopes

  • Ions are atoms or groups of atoms with a positive (cation) or negative (anion) charge.
  • Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons.

Chemical Reactions

  • Endothermic reactions absorb heat from their surroundings.
  • Exothermic reactions release heat to their surroundings.

Atoms

  • Electrons have a negative charge and orbit the nucleus.
  • Protons have a positive charge and are located in the nucleus.
  • Neutrons have no charge and are located in the nucleus.

Chemical Equations

  • Balancing a chemical equation involves making sure the number of atoms of each element is the same on both the reactant and product sides.

Periodic Table

  • The periodic table is a tool used to organize elements based on their properties and relationships.

Physical and Chemical Changes

  • Physical changes involve changes in state or phase, but not composition.
  • Chemical changes involve changes in composition, resulting in a new substance.
