#1
Front (Question)

The periodic table What were the only ways to categorise elements in the 1800s

Back (Answer)

By their physical and chemical properties or their relative atomic mass

#2
Front (Question)

The periodic table In 1817 what did dobereiner attempt to do and what were they called

Back (Answer)

Group similar elements and the groups were called dobereiners triads

#3
Front (Question)

The periodic table What groups did dobereiner create

Back (Answer)

Saw bromine chlorine and iodine had similar characteristic Realises properties of bromine fell halfway between chlorine and iodine Found groups of three eg lithium sodium and potassium

#4
Front (Question)

The periodic table What did john newlands do

Back (Answer)

Tried to make a table of elements in 1863and noticed if her arranged elements in order of mass similar elements appeared regularly

#5
Front (Question)

The periodic table What was the law of octaves

Back (Answer)

John newlands found every eighth elements was similar but this pattern broke down on third row

#6
Front (Question)

The periodic table What did dmitri Mendeleev do

Back (Answer)

In 1869 produced a better table which wasn’t far off current table

#7
Front (Question)

The periodic table How did Mendeleev arrange elements

Back (Answer)

By atomic mass and left gaps in the table where the next element didn’t seem to fit so could keep elements with similar chemical properties in same groups

#8
Front (Question)

The periodic table What did Mendeleev predict

Back (Answer)

Properties of undiscovered elements

#9
Front (Question)

The periodic table How is the modern periodic table arranged

Back (Answer)

By increasing proton number

#10
Front (Question)

The periodic table How is the periodic table laid out

Back (Answer)

Into periods (rows) and groups (columns)

#11
Front (Question)

The periodic table What do all elements in same period have and what does this mean

Back (Answer)

Same number of electron shells and means there are repeating trends in physical and chemical properties across periods

#12
Front (Question)

The periodic table What are trends in properties called

Back (Answer)

Periodicity

#13
Front (Question)

The periodic table What do all elements within one groups have and what does this mean

Back (Answer)

All have same number of electrons in outer shell and have similar chemical properties

#14
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies What does it mean if and atom or molecule has been ionised

Back (Answer)

Electrons have been removed

#15
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies Definition for the first ionisation energy

Back (Answer)

Energy needed to remove 1 mole of electrons from 1 mole of gaseous atoms

#16
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies What type of process is it to ionise an atom or molecule and why

Back (Answer)

Have to put energy in so and endothermic process

#17
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies Equation for first ionisation energies

Back (Answer)

X (g) —> X+ (g) + e-

#18
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies Important to rember when writing ionisation energy equations

Back (Answer)

Must use gas symbol (g) because ionisation energies are measured for gaseous atoms

#19
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies What does the lower ionisation energy mean

Back (Answer)

Easier to form an ion

#20
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies What factors affect ionisation energies

Back (Answer)

Nuclear charge Atomic radius Shielding

#21
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies How does nuclear charge affect ionisation energy

Back (Answer)

More protons in the nucleus, more positively charged the nucleus is and the stronger attraction for the electrons

#22
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies How does atomic radius affect ionisation energy

Back (Answer)

Attraction decreases rapidly with distance, an electron close to the nucleus will be much more strongly attracted than one further away therefore require more energy to remove

#23
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies How does shielding affect ionisation energy

Back (Answer)

As number of electrons increases, there’s more shells therefore shielding from inner shells and less attraction between nucleus and outer electron

#24
Front (Question)

Ionisation energies What does a high ionisation energy mean

Back (Answer)

Strong attraction between the electron and the nucleus so more energy is ended to overcome the attraction and removed the electron
