1. What is an element?

An element is a substance made from one type of atom

2. How many electrons fit on the first shell of an atom?

2 electrons fit on the first shell of an atom

Elements key facts Atoms

● Elements are made of one type of atom

● Atoms are the smallest piece of substance that exists

● Atoms contain protons, neutrons and electrons

● Protons: +1, mass 1, nucleus

● Neutrons: 0, mass 1, nucleus

● Electrons: -1, mass 1/2000, shells

● First electron shell = 2 electrons

Credit: Miss Willet

● Second and third electron shells = 8 electrons

16
Elements key facts The periodic table

● Elements are in groups (columns) of similar properties

● The staircase line separates metals and non-metals

● Metals on the left, non-metals on the right

● Elements are represented by symbols

● First letter: capital, second letter: lower case

● The modern periodic table was devised by Mendeleev Source: Oak

● Mass number = number of protons and neutrons

● Atomic number = number of protons (same as electrons)

17

Electrons have a negative charge and are

found on shells

18
Elements!
True or false?

The modern periodic table was designed by

Newlands

19

True or false?

The mass number tells us that atoms have the

same number of protons and electrons

Revision 1: Elements
Make at least 3 flashcards to summarise your learning about
ELEMENTS

Some ideas about what you could include:

● What are elements?

● What are the charge and location of the three subatomic particles?
● What is the periodic table? How is it organised?
● Who developed the periodic table?
● How are elements represented?

 Revision technique 2:
Mind-maps

● Choose a topic area

● Write keywords for the topic, scattered
about
● Add definitions of the words, where
needed
● Draw lines between linked words
● Write a sentence along the line to show

Compounds key points
What are they?

● Compounds are made from more than one type of atom, chemically bonded

● Compounds have different properties to their elements

● Compound names and formulae are based on their elements Li2O

● The subscript number tells you how many atoms of an element is present

● Compounds are neutral, so you need to check charges! Li +1 O -2

2x Li 1x O
● A metal reacting with oxygen forms a metal oxide

31
Compounds key points
Conservation of mass

● Atoms rearranged during chemical and physical changes

● No atoms lost or gained

● Mass before = mass after

● Chemical reactions make new products; not reversible

● Physical changes are easily reversible; no new products

● If gas escapes, mass appears to decrease

● If gas in air reacted, mass appears to increase
