Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

Which atom would require more energy to remove a valence electron, sodium or sulfur?
sulfur
Which atom would require more energy to remove a valence electron, lithium or cesium?
lithium
Which atom is larger, potassium or bromine?
potassium
What element is the most electronegative element on the Periodic Table of Elements?
fluorine
What is the group/family name for column 1 (1A) of the periodic table?
alkali metals
What is the group/family name for column 2 (2A) of the periodic table?
alkaline earth metals
Nonmetals tend to (gain or lose) electrons to obtain a full set of valence electrons and become stable.
gain
Nonmetals are located on the (left or right) side of the periodic table?
right
Why do electronegativity and ionization energy increase as you move across a period from left to right?
the increasing number of protons causes a greater electromagnetic attraction between the protons & electrons, making it more difficult to remove electrons
Why does the atomic size decrease as you move across a period from left to right?
the increasing number of protons causes a greater electromagnetic attraction between the protons & electrons, pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus
Which element is larger magnesium or calcium? why?
calcium because it has more energy levels
Which element is more electronegative nitrogen or bromine?
nitrogen (remember when elements are equidistant from fluorine the one with less energy levels is more electronegative)

Electron affinity (increases or decreases) as you move down a group/family and (increases or decreases) as you move across a period from left to right.
Electron affinity DECREASES as you move down a group/family and INCREASES as you move across a period from left to right.
Ionization energy (increases or decreases) as you move down a group/family and (increases or decreases) as you move across a period from left to right.
Ionization energy DECREASES as you move down a group/family and INCREASES as you move across a period from left to right.
Electronegativity (increases or decreases) as you move down a group/family and (increases or decreases) as you move across a period from left to right.
Electronegativity DECREASES as you move down a group/family and INCREASES as you move across a period from left to right.
Atomic radius (increases or decreases) as you move down a group/family and (increases or decreases) as you move across a period from left to right.
Atomic radius INCREASES as you move down a group/family and DECREASES as you move across a period from left to right.
With the exception of helium, how many valence electrons do all noble gas elements have?
8
What are valence electrons?
electrons in the outermost energy level/shell
How many energy levels does an aluminum atom have?
3
How many valence electrons does a magnesium atom have?
2
How many valence electrons does an oxygen atom have?
6
What does the group/family that an element is in tell you about its atomic structure?
the number of valence electrons (electrons in the outermost energy level/shell)
What does the period that an element is in tell you about its atomic structure?
the number of energy levels
What are the vertical columns of the Periodic Table called?
group(s)/ family(families)
What are the horizontal rows of the Periodic Table called?
period(s)
