Periodic Table Review

3. Earth This is the second most reactive group of elements on the periodic table, these are found in group 2.
4. Gases This group of elements makes up the last row in the periodic table. Each element in this group has a full valence shell of electrons.
6. A chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract electrons towards itself.
7. This group of nonmetals has elements with 7 valence electrons in their outer shell.
9. Energy The amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron, the valence electron, of an isolated gaseous atom to form a cation
11. This type of bond involves the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms.
12. This is the most reactive group of metals, found in group 1 on the periodic table.
13. This type of bond involves the complete transfer of electrons between two or more elements.

1. This group of metals is made up of elements between group 2 and 12 on the periodic table. They have valence electrons in multiple shells.
2. This small category of elements shows characteristics of both metals and nonmetals. There are only 7 of them.
5. This category of elements makes up the majority of the periodic table. They are identifiable by their hardness, ability to conduct electricity, and is a good thermal conductor.
8. This category of elements makes up the right side of the table, including group 18. They generally exist as gases and solids.
10. Radius A measure of the size of its atoms, usually the mean or typical distance from the center of the nucleus to the boundary of the surrounding cloud of electrons
