8.5 A, B, & C Unit Test Review

2
TEKS 8.5 A
Describe the structure of atoms, including the masses, electrical charges, and locations of protons and neutrons in the nucleus and electrons in the electron cloud.
3
Atomic Structure
- Atomic # = The # of Protons = the # of electrons
- (APE)
- Atomic Mass - Atomic Number = the # of Neutrons
- (Man)
- Atoms are identified on the periodic table by the number of protons that they have
4
Protons are Positive - Found in the Nucleus
Neutrons have no charge - Found in the Nucleus
Electrons are Negative - found on the energy levels (Shells) surrounding the nucleus
5
Multiple Choice
What element is it? Contains a mass of 64 and it has 35 Neutrons.
Gadolinium (Gd)
Copper (Cu)
Zinc (Zn)
Bromine (Br)
6
Multiple Select
Select all that describe electrons?
positive charge
negative charge
no charge
found inside the nucleus
found outside the nucleus
7
Multiple Select
Select all that describe neutrons?
positive charge
negative charge
no charge
found inside the nucleus
found outside the nucleus
8
Multiple Select
Select all that describe protons?
positive charge
negative charge
no charge
found inside the nucleus
found outside the nucleus
9
Multiple Choice
An atom of a certain element has a mass of 48, it has 22 protons and 22 electrons. How many neutrons are in this atom?
26
48
22
70

TEKS 8.5 B
Identify that protons determine an element's identity and valence electrons determine its chemical properties, including reactivity
Valence Electrons are located on the outer shell (Energy level)
Valence electrons are used to determine the elements reactivity
Valence electrons found in the groups / columns on a periodic table.
11
Multiple Choice
Elements in group one are with a valence electron of one are __.
very reactive
not very reactive ( stable )
12
Multiple Select
Select all that apply to valence electrons___.
They found on the horizontal periods on a periodic table.
They are found on the vertical groups on a periodic table.
They represent the number of energy shells
They represent the chemical reactivity of an element.
They are located on the outside energy shells.
13
Multiple Choice
Which statement accurately describes atoms of Phosphorus?
Phosphorus atoms have 31 Protons
Phosphorus atoms have 5 valence electrons
Phosphorus atoms have 31 electrons
Phosphorus atoms 15 neutrons.
14
TEKS 8.5 C
Interpret the arrangement of the Periodic Table, including groups and periods, to explain how properties are used to classify elements.
15
Periods = Rows = Horizontal
Periods are found on the horizontal rows on a periodic table.
Periods represent the number of energy levels (Shells) in an atom
There are 7 periods
16
Groups = Columns = Vertical
Groups are the vertical columns on a periodic table
Valence electrons are located on the outermost shell
Valence electrons follow the 2 - 8 - 8 rule in Bohr models
Elements in the same groups have the same number of valence electrons on their outside shell
Elements in the same groups have similar chemical reactivity
17
Multiple Choice
A researcher wants to experiment with an element that reacts like Calcium (Ca) but has a greater atomic mass. Which element should the researcher select for the experiment?
Barium (Ba)
Titanium (Ti)
Beryllium (Be)
18
Multiple Choice
How many valence electrons does this atom have?
Has 2 Valence Electrons
Has 4 valence electrons
19
Multiple Select
Select the elements that have 7 valence electrons
F
Br
Fr
Db
N
20
Multiple Select
Select the elements that are metalloids
Calcium
Boron
Aluminum
Polonium
Arsenic
21
Multiple Select
Select the elements that are non metals
Helium
Antimony
Zinc
Hydrogen
Chlorine
22
Metals, Nonmetals, Metalloids
compare metals, nonmetals, and metalloids using physical properties such as luster, conductivity, or malleability
Metals are described as - solids at room temperature, malleable, conduct electricity and heat, can be ductile, have luster (shiny), are found mostly on the left side of the periodic table
Non -Metals - do not conduct electricity or heat, are dull or lack luster, mostly gases, are found on the right side of the periodic table
Metalloids - Have characteristics of both metals and non metals, are found along the zig zag, are often used in computers, can have luster or can lack luster
23
Multiple Select
Select the elements that are metals
Iodine
Erbium
Lead
Polonium
Hydrogen
