Two atoms with the same number of protons, but
different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes
Two different between isotopes are mass number and
neutron #
Four similarities between isotopes are
a) Proton #
b) Electron #
c) Electron configuration
d) Chemical Properties
Properties of Metals
Metald have high melting and boiling points
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
Metals have high density
Metals look shiny
Metals are strong materials ( hard)
Metals are malleable, they can change shape without
breaking when hit very hard
Chemical properties of Metals
Metal react with oxygen to form compounds called
oxides
The oxides produces hydroxies solution when
dissolved in water
The alkali solution have pH>7
Most metal elements react with acids to form a salt
and hydrogen
Properties of Non-metal
Non-metallic elements have low melting and boiling
points
Non-metals are poor conductors of heat and
electricity
Non-metals are weak material ( weak)
Non-metals look dull
Most non-metals easily break into smaller piece,
they are brittle
Non-metals have low density
Groups
Group 1 –Alkali Metals : Lithium (Li), Sodium(Na),
Potassium( K), Rubidium( Rb)
The melting points of Group 1 metals decrease as
we go down the group
Group 1 metals need to be stored under oil
because it keep them out of contact w/oxygen in the
air
Group 1 metals are less dense than water, so they
float
They are good conductors of heat and electricity
The Group 1 metals get more reactive as we go
down the group
