Chapter 1: The Atom
Karten in diesem Stapel (23)
- 1Atomthe fundamental building block of all material, it consists of a cluster of protons and neutrons surrounded by a cloud of electrons
- 2atomic modelscientists' representation of an atom determined by experiment and indirect observation
- 3atomic numberthe number of protons in a nucleus, the atomic number determines what type of atom it is
- 4compounda pure substance that is made up of two or more different types of atoms which are chemically joined
- 5crystal latticea grid-like structure of atoms or ions where each particle is bonded to all of its neighbouring atoms
- 6electrona small negatively charged particle, clouds of electrons surround the nucleus of the atom
- 7electron configurationthe number of electrons in each shell of an atom
- 8electron shellpart of the electron cloud, it is a layer that surrounds the nucleus and can only hold a certain number of electrons
- 9elementa substance made up of only one type of atom
- 10isotopesatoms that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons in their nucleus
- 11mass numberthe number of protons and neutrons in an atom
- 12moleculea cluster of atoms that makes up an element or a compound
- 13neutralhaving no overall charge
- 14neutrona particle with no electric charge, it is found in the nucleus of an atom
- 15nucleusa cluster of neutrons and protons in the centre of an atom
- 16periodic tabletable showing all 118 known types of atoms (elements)
- 17protona positively charged particle in the nucleus
- 18aniona negativiely charge ion
- 19cationa positively charges ion
- 20ionan atom that has lost or gained electrons and therefore has an electric charge
- 21ionic bonda bond between a cation and an anion due to electrostatic attraction of their opposite charges
- 22ionic compounda compound made up of cations and anions
- 23solubilityhow easily a substance dissolves
