Concept explainers

Electron Affinity

When an element undergoes a chemical reaction, it either gains energy or loses energy. This gain or loss of energy is due to the phenomena that occur at atomic level. During reaction, atoms either gain electrons from other atoms or lose electrons to other atoms, and in that process, energy is produced.

P-Block Elements

Elements which are present on the right side of the periodic table are called p-block elements. In addition to the noble gases, they include the families of boron, mercury, nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. These elements have diverse real-life implementations that we regularly experience around us.

Metals and Non-metals

The periodic table is composed of metals, semi-metals and nonmetal elements. The physical and chemical properties of metals and nonmetals differ from each other. The study of metals and nonmetals will help one to understand the appropriate application of the particular element.

How can the periodic table be used to determine the number of valence electrons of a given element? The groups of the periodic table indicate the number of valence electrons of a given element. For example, beryllium is in the second group of the periodic table, so beryllium has two valence electrons. The number of valence electrons corresponds to the atomic number of the element. For example, helium has the atomic number of two. Therefore, helium has two valence electrons. The rows of the periodic table indicate the number of valence electrons of a given element. For example, aluminum is found in the third row of the periodic table; therefore, aluminum has three valence electrons. The periods of the periodic table indicate the number of valence electrons of a given element. For example, hydrogen is found in the first period, so hydrogen has one valence electron.
5.Reason from a scientific model. Write out a brief paragraph explaining why we see specific colors when we heat up ionic salts up in a flame. When providing an explanation, make sure to describe the events in the correct order, and specify correctly the cause of a change and the effect of that cause. Describe the Bohr model of the atom and make sure you address the following questions: So a. What is happening to the atoms in the solid salts as they are heated: a) What phase change occurs as you heat the salt? b) Where is the energy coming from for this phase change? b. What is happening to the electrons inside the metal ions to make them generate visible light? 1. Use a Bohr model of an atom to describe the energy changes of the electron required to generate light, starting from the ground state. Why do different atoms produce different colors? All these atoms have the same number of valence electrons, so why do you think their colors are so different? C.
