nm

The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called _____

periods

What is the best reason that the atomic radius generally increases moving down a group of elements.

the number of occupied energy levels increases

What has more ionization energy? Al vs S

S

This scientist predicted that the empty spaces on his periodic table represented _____

Undiscovered elements

The number of valence electrons are in group 17 elements is _____

7

This group's name means "basic".

List in order of smallest to largest: Cu, Cu-, Cu+

Cu+, Cu, Cu-

Who is attributed with the idea of arranging the known elements of his time in a table according to their chemical and physical properties?

Dmitri Mendeleev

Which atom or ion will have the larger radius: F or F-

F-

Which of the following atoms is smallest: nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine?

Fluorine

What element is the most electronegative?

Fluorine (F)

Explain why atomic radius decreases going across the period left to right on the periodic table.

Going across, the positive nuclear charge increases with more protons. This attracts electrons towards the nucleus giving a smaller atomic radius.

Going down, reactivity decreases

What is the trend for reactivity for the alkali metal group?

Going down, reactivity increases

N

This group is unreactive, and only found in pure form in nature.

Noble Gases (group 18)

What is more electronegative? O vs Cl

O

Phosphorous

Which is larger than the neutral atom? S-, S, S+

S-

Which is the largest? S vs S-2

S-2

Which of these elements has the highest ionization energy: tin, arsenic, or sulfur?

Sulfur

What is the general trend of electronegativity as you go down the group on the periodic table?

The electronegativity decreases as you go down the group.

Write a definition for ionization energy.

The energy required to remove an electron.
