C4 - The Periodic Table
- Atomic Struture
- Protons: positively charged, charge +1, mass 1
- Neutrons: no relative charge, charge 0, mass 1.
- Electrons are negatively charged, charge -1, mass 0.0005
- Atomic Number = number of protons element contains found at the bottom of element on P.T
- Mass Number = total number of protons and neutrons element contains
- Isotopes = same element, same atomic number, different mass number.
- Electronic Structure
- Compound = two or more elements, chemically combined.
- Chemical formula = symbols of all elements in a compound and number of atoms of each element.
- Electrons occupy shells around the nucleus
- first shell can home two electrons.
- second and third shells can home up to eight electrons
- Ionic Bonding
- If an atom loses one or more electrons it becomes a positively charged ion
- Hydrogen and metal atoms
- If an atom gains one or more electrons it becomes a negatively charged ion
- Non-metal atoms
- Metal reacts with non-metal
- Electrons transferred from metal to non-metal
- Positive metal ions attract negative non-metal ions and form ionic bonds.
- Dot and cross diagrams
- Ionic Compounds
- Giant ionic lattice
- Structure repeated many times
- Positive ions strongly attracted to negative ions.
- Ionic bonds need a lot of energy to be broken
- High Melting Point.
- Can conduct electricity in a molten or liquid solution - ions are free to move around
- Periodic Table
- horizontal rows = period
- vertical column = group
- Elements in a group have similar properties
- number of electron shells occupied = period element is found
- Number of electrons in outer shell = group number
- Covalent Bonding
- two non-metals
- Shared pair of electrons
- Each covalent bond is shown as a straight line in displayed formula
- Weak intermolecular forces
- Low melting point
- Does not conduct electricity
- Shared electrons shown on diagram in shared area between atoms
- Group One Elements
- React vigorously with water to form alkaline solutions
- Stored in oil to keep them away from water and air
- Metal + Water = Metal Hydroxide + Hydrogen
- 2M + 2H20 = 2MOH + H2
- reactivity increases as you go down the group.
- In water, lithium keeps its shape, potassium and sodium melt and form silver balls
- Potassium ignites explosively and burns with a lilac flame
- Lithium disappears slowly, sodium disappears quickly and potassium disappears very quickly
- Each have one electron in outer shell
- Loss of electron = oxidation
- M = (M+) + (e-)
- Densities increase as you go down the group
- Melting points increase as you go down the group
- Flame Tests
- Lithium burns red
- Sodium burns orange
- Potassium burns lilac
- Group Seven Elements
- Halogens - react with metal to make salts
- Chlorine sterilises pools and tap water
- Iodine is used as antiseptic on wounds
- Chlorine is a green gas
- Group Seven elements react vigorously with Group One
- Metal Halide clouds produced
- 2M + X2 = 2MX (where M = group one and X = group 7)
- Bromine is an orange liquid
- Iodine is a grey solid
- Displacement reactions
- A more reactive group 7 will displace a less reactive group 7 from its metal hallide.
- X2 + 2MY = Y2 + 2MX where X = group 7 and MY = metal hallide
- Gain of electron = reduction
- X2 + (2e-) = 2X-)
- Transition Elements
- between groups 2 and 3
- They are all metals
- Strong, malleable and shiny when cut
- Copper compounds are often blue
- Iron(II) compounds are often light green
- Iron(III) compounds are often orangey brown
- Often used as catalysts, EG: iron is used in the haber
process.
- Thermal Decomposition = substance breaks down to form two or more substances when heated
- Metal carbonate = metal oxide + carbon dioxide
- Normally causes a colour change
- Precipitation reactions
- Copper(II) - blue metal hydroxide precipitate
- Iron (II) - grey/green metal hydroxide precipitate
- Iron (III) - orange/brown metal hydroxide precipitate
- Metal
- Good conductor of electricity
- hard, lustrous, malleable and have tensile strength
- Metallic bonding - strong - high melting and boiling points
- Closely packed ions
- sea of delocalised electrons
- Takes a lot of energy to overcome bonds
- Water Purification
- Water comes from underground aquifers,
resevoirs, lakes and rivers.
- contains many dissolved substances which need to be removed
- Water can be used in industry as a solvent, a coolant or a cheap raw material
- Sulfate ions can be detected by barium chloride solution
- Sample of water in test tube, barium chloride added
- Sulfate Ions present = white precipitate
- Na2SO4 + BaCl2 = 2NaCl + BaSO4
- Hallide ions can be detected by silver nitrate
- Chloride Ions = White precipitate
- bromide ions = cream precipitate
- NaCl + AgNO3 = NaNO3 + AgCl
- iodide ions = pale yellow precipitate
- Only 3% of the Earth's water is fresh
- Pollutants in water = nitrates, lead compounds and pesticides
- Distillation can make pure water from sea water but requires lots of energy and is more expensive
- Large suspended particles removed by sedimentation
- Small suspended particles removed by filtration
- chlorination kills microbes in the water
