Unit 5 Periodic Table Vocab
Across
- 2. half reaction in which a chemical species decreases its oxidation number, generally by gaining electrons.
- 3. Effect the electron and the nucleus in an atom have a decrease in attraction which changes the nuclear charge
- 9. ion with a positive electrical charge.
- 12. loss of electrons by an atom, molecule or ion in a chemical reaction.
- 14. The ability of an atom to attract electrons
- 16. Energy The energy required to remove an electron from an atom
- 17. an ion with a negative electrical charge.
Down
- 1. recurring variations in element properties with increasing atomic number due to trends in atomic structure.
- 4. a vertical column on the periodic table consisting of elements that share periodic properties.
- 5. Properties are Similar to Both Metals and Nonmetals
- 6. Electron outer electron most likely to participate in bond formation or a chemical reaction.
- 7. horizontal row of the periodic table; elements with the same highest unexcited electron energy level
- 8. Good Conductors, Solid at Room Temperature, Ductile and Malleable
- 10. Poor Conductors, Most are Gases at Room Temperature
- 11. State the difference between the number of electrons in an atom in a compound compared with the number of electrons in a neutral atom of the element.
- 13. Radii distance away from the nucleus. Increases going from top to bottom and decreases going across the periodic table.
- 15. Radii distance away from the central atom. Increases going from top to bottom and decreases across the periodic table.
