Circle the faces to keep a record of your progress.
I am confident that I understand this and I can apply this to problems I have some understanding but I need to revise this some more I don’t know this or I need help because I don’t understand it
You can use this to help you pick the areas of the unit that need the most revision.
As you revise your class work you will be able to circle more and more smiley faces.
If that does not help then you should ask your teacher!
Learning Outcomes Can you do this?

Every element is made up of very small particles called
__________________
Each __________is made up of only one kind of atom.
Atoms have a dense centre called the ____________. This
contains ___________ which have a positive charge and an
approximate mass of 1 amu.
The nucleus also contains ______________ with no charge and
approximate mass of 1 amu.
Moving through space outside the nucleus are ____________ which have a _____________charge and a mass of almost zero.
Page 13

An atom is _____________because the number of negatively
charged electrons is equal to the number of positively charged
protons.
Chemists have classified elements by arranging them in the
____________ table.
Each element has a different number in the periodic table called the
_______________number.
All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons.
The number of protons is called the ____________ number. In a
neutral atom the number of protons is equal to the number of
_____________.
The mass of an atom is concentrated in the ______________.
The ___________number = the number of protons + the number of
neutrons.
Hence the number of ____________in an atom can be found by
subtracting the atomic number from the mass number.Page 14

The symbol for an atom of an element is usually written with the
__________number at the bottom left and the __________ number
at the top left,
Eg Atomic number = __________
Mass number = __________Number of protons = __________Number of electrons = __________Number of neutrons = __________
noble transition sodium isotopes neutrons
mass halogens alkali negative same
electrons chemical average atomic group
lose ion whole 0 eight
2,8,1 two
Atoms of the same element can have different _________numbers,
e.g. Carbon has three different types of atoms 12C, 13 C and 14
C.
Page 15

Since all atoms of the one element have the same number of
protons, the number of __________ must be different. These
atoms are called ____________.
The atoms have the same ___________ properties because they
have the same electron arrangements.
The relative atomic mass is the ___________ mass of an atom of
an element. As a result of an average being taken, the relative
atomic mass of an element is rarely a _____________number.
The _____________ move around the nucleus in shells (energy
levels). The first energy level can hold up to __________ electrons.
The second energy level can hold up to ___________ electrons.
Each element has a different electron arrangement, e.g. ________
with eleven electrons has the electron arrangement ___________.
A column of elements in the periodic table is called a __________.
Elements in the periodic table are arranged in increasing
___________ number with elements which have the same number
of outer electrons in the same ___________. Elements with the
__________ number of outer electrons have similar chemical
properties.Page 16
Duncanrig Secondary Chemistry Department
Elements can be classified in different ways:-
(a) Naturally occurring/ man-made,
(b) Solid/liquid/gas,
(c) Metal/ non-metal
Elements in group 1 are called the _________metals.
Elements in group 7 are called the ___________.
Elements in group 0 are called the ___________gases.
Elements in the middle block are called the
___________metals.
Elements in the same group of the periodic table show similar
properties,
e.g. group ______ elements are all very unreactive gases.
An _______ is a charged particle. Positive ions are formed when
atoms lose electrons and __________ions are formed when atoms
gain electrons.
