Question 1
Question
What is an atom?
An atom is the [blank_start]building block of an element[blank_end].
All [blank_start]substances[blank_end] are made of atoms, they contain protons, [blank_start]neutrons[blank_end] and [blank_start]electrons[blank_end].
Question 2
Question
What is an electronic configuration?
It is the [blank_start]arrangement[blank_end] of [blank_start]electrons[blank_end] in [blank_start]energy shells[blank_end] around the [blank_start]nucleus[blank_end] in the [blank_start]atom[blank_end].
Answer
-
arrangement
-
electrons
-
energy shells
-
nucleus
-
atom

Shorthand notation
Question 4
Question
Check all the right answers.
Why does reactivity increase moving down group1?
Answer
-
because the radius of the atom decreases
-
because the radius of the atom increases
-
the valence electron decreases and it becomes easier for the atom to lose its valence electrons
-
the force of attraction between nucleus and the valence electron decreases
-
the valence electron becomes far away from the nuclues
-
the valence electron decreases and it becomes harder for the atom to lose its valence electrons
-
the valence electron becomes closer to the nucleus
Question 5
Question
Explain how group II metals are less reactive than group I.
Atoms of group 2 metals have [blank_start]2[blank_end] valence electrons, while atoms of group 1 metals have [blank_start]1[blank_end] valence electrons. It is [blank_start]more difficult[blank_end] to lose [blank_start]2[blank_end] valence electrons than losing just [blank_start]1[blank_end] electron.
