Resource summary
Atoms & Elements
STRUCTURE
protons, +, RAM1
neutrons, 0 charge, RAM 1
electrons, -, RAM 0
number of electrons = number of protons
Nucleon number= number of proton + number of neutron
Proton number = number of proton =number of electron
ISOTOPES
Same element, different number or neutrons
AVERAGE RAM =(% x mass of first isotope)+ (% x mass of second isotope)
RADIOISOTOPES
Radioactive: break down or decay over time, giving out radiation
Used to kill cancer cells
Used as medical tracers
Used to detect leaks in oil and gas pipes
Used to sterilize things
PERIODIC TABLE
arranged in order of proton number
rows are periods, columns are groups
period number shows number of shells
group number shows valency electrons
valency electrons dictate how an element reacts
METALS
PROPERTIES
conductors
high melting/boiling point
malleable and ductile
sonorous
high density
form positive ions
USES
Electrical wiring
Used in planes and rockets
NON-METALS
PROPERTIES
non-conductor
low melting/boiling point
brittle
dull
form negative ions
low density
Media attachments
