Elements in different groups in the Periodic Table (eg. sodium and chlorine) generally have different chemical properties because they have: a) different numbers of outer shell electrons b) different shells as their outer shell c) atoms that are different in size d) different mass numbers Answer: A Source: www.greatneck.k12.ny.us/GNPS/SHS/.../Test2Questions_000.pdf SHORT ANSWER: Use complete sentences. 1. Using the information from the periodic table, what can you tell about the element, Krypton (Kr)? Krypton belongs to the Noble Gases group. The atomic mass is 83.80. The atomic number is 36. This element has 36 protons, it also has 36 electrons. Based on its atomic mass, it has 48 neutrons. 2. How did Dalton describe chemical reactions? Dalton said that chemical reactions involved the rearrangement of combinations of atoms. 3. How can atoms of the same element be different? Atoms of the same element can have a different number of neutrons. Atoms want to have the same number of neutrons and protons but the number of neutrons can change. 4. What evidence was there that atoms are mostly empty space? Rutherford came to this conclusion after his Gold-Foil experiment. He found that most of the alpha particles (when released) went straight through the gold foil of which consisted of atoms. In the middle of the atom there is a small nucleus that has mass and positive charge. Because the nucleus is so small the alpha particles were able to go straight through leading to the conclusion that atoms are mostly empty space. 5. What are the four parts of Dalton's Atomic Theory? His atomic theory, stated that 1.) elements consisted of tiny particles called atoms. He said that the reason an element is pure is because 2.) all atoms of an element were identical and that in particular they had the same mass. He also said that the reason elements differed from one another was that 3.) atoms of each element were different from one another; in particular, they had different masses. He also said that 4.) compounds consisted of atoms of different elements combined together.

What can it tell us about the elements and their properties? The periodic table is set up into columns and rows. The columns are known as groups or families. The vertical rows are called periods. The elements that share a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. The elements that are within the same group have the same number of electrons in their outer atomic orbitals. All the elements within a same family have the same properties. It is organized in ascending order according to their atomic number which is the amount of protons within that element. Every element belongs to a category, such as: metals, non-metals, noble gases, alkali metals, alkalineearth metals, transition metals, rare earth metals, and halogens. Each category has certain properties that all elements will share. For example, elements that belong to the metals share the following properties: high melting points and densities, good heating and electrical conductors, they are malleable, and solids at room temperature except mercury. The metals can all be found on the left-hand side of the periodic table, whereas the non-metals are found on the right, with metalloids separating them.
