Document Summary

Element- pure substance that contains only one type of atom. Each atom has the same atomic # (protons) Ca(cid:374)"t (cid:271)e redu(cid:272)ed to si(cid:373)pler su(cid:271)sta(cid:374)(cid:272)es (cid:271)(cid:455) (cid:374)or(cid:373)al (cid:272)he(cid:373)i(cid:272)al (cid:373)ea(cid:374)s. 92 naturally occurring elements- 112 iupac recognized. Atom- unit of matter that has a particular structure. Have all the characteristics of that element. Limited removal, transfer, and exchange of electrons. Neutron- no charge, number is changeable (isotopes) Surrounds nucleus in an orbital subshell cloud. Cloud= area where electron is likely to be found. Spa(cid:272)e= if ele(cid:272)tro(cid:374) were the size of a(cid:374) apple, the the shell"s or(cid:271)it would be a mile wide diameter. Atom wants to become stable by filling its electron orbitals. Elements with unfilled electron orbitals are chemically reactive. Valence subshells- outer orbital containing valence electrons. Valency: number of bonds that an element can form with another element. Some electrons are easily attracted away/to outer orbitals of other elements (electronegativity)
