All the elements of a family in the periodic table have what feature in common?

They all have similar chemical properties.

They all have the same number of protons in the nucleus.

They are all located in the same horizontal row or period.

They all have the same number of electrons in the electron cloud.

Which statement about atomic structure is incorrect ?

Protons and electrons have the same mass.

Protons are located in the nucleus.

Protons and electrons have opposite charges.

Neutral atoms contain the same number of protons and electrons.

Consider the elements in this family (group) of the periodic table. Because they are in the same family, what can you predict about these elements?

They are chemically reactive in a similar way.

They are all about the same mass.

The size of the atom decreases as you go down the column.

The elements change from metals to nonmetals as go down the column.

Choose all of the answers that are correct when describing this atom. (Choose 2)

The atomic mass of this atom is 35 amu.

The atomic mass of this atom is 69 amu.

Germanium, element 32 on the Periodic Table, is shown here. If a proton is added to the nucleus of germanium, what outcome(s) would occur? Select both that apply.

The atom would become arsenic and have different properties.

The atom would increase in mass and have different elemental properties.

The atom would increase in mass but would remain germanium.

The atom would remain germanium, but it would have a positive charge.

The atom would expel a neutron to maintain a constant mass and chemical properties.

The periodic table is an arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by atomic number, into families, and by doing so illustrates the periodic properties of the elements. Considering the organization of the periodic table, which element would make a good conductor of electricity ? What properties of that element would support this choice?

Copper, Cu. A solid metal that is ductile and malleable.

Calcium, Ca. A very reactive, commonly found Earth metal.

Silicon, Si. A metalloid that acts as either a metal or a non-metal.

Mercury, Hg. A dense, liquid metal that moves easily with changes in temperature.

Consider this row in the periodic table of elements. As we move from left to right, across the row, the elements

change from metals to nonmetals.

change from nonmetals to metals.

start as gases but end as solids.

show a decrease in atomic mass number.
