Answers
1
Why does reactivity increase further down the group?
the outermost electon has a lower activation energy
the outermost electron wants a full outer shell
the outermost electron is further from the nucleus
the outermost electron is shielded by the inner electrons
2
"Are you hanging up the stocking on your wall" is the famous line from which song?
Merry Christmas Everybody
Wonderful Christmastime
Do you know it's Christmas?
I wish it could be Christmas everyday
3
Do you have a periodic table handy?
<p>I've already memorised it</p>
Of course
I'm just getting one
erm..no
4

London
Dublin
Boston
New York
5
Until the 1930s, what colour were Santa's clothes?
Green
Blue
Brown
yellow
6
In "12 days of Christmas", what was sent on the 2nd day besides a partridge in a pear tree?
two French hens
two turtle doves
two golden rings
two calling birds
7
Which country began the tradition of Christmas trees?
Greenland
Germany
Sweden
USA
8
Which of these is NOT a key physical property of the alkali metals?
soft
low density
low melting point
react with water
9
For halogens, the 7 electrons in the outer energy level are further from the nucleus...
so reactivity increases down the group
so they react with metals more easily
so they react with non metals more easily
so reactivity decreases down the group
10
How did Newlands attempt to classify the elements?
elements with similar properties in the same column
by arranging them on his piano
in order of atomic mass
in order of atomic number
11
What colour are the salts of transition metals?
blue
white
a wide variety of colours
colourless
12
Bromine + potassium chloride -->
potassium bromide & chlorine gas
no reaction
13
In "Jingle Bells", how many horses are there in the open sleigh?
2
1
4
8
14
Why were some elements placed in inappropriate groups?
Some of the properties had not yet been identified
They weren't
some elements had not been discovered
They were in order of atomic mass NOT atomic number
15
What is the charge on alkali metal ions?
-1
-2
+2
+1
16
What are the Group VII elements usually called?
alkali metals
halogens
transition metals
noble gases
17
What was the key difference between Mendeleev's periodic table and Newlands'?
The elements were placed in order of atomic no. (proton no.)
Mendeleev had a dream
The columns were"groups" with similar properties
He left gaps for elements he thought must exist.
18
How do the physical properties of the alkali metals change down the group?
reactivity increases
melting point lowers
melting point rises
reactivity decreases
19
in the modern periodic table, what do elements in the same group all have in common?
same number of electron shells
same number of electrons in the outer shell
same number of neutrons in the nucleus
they are very reactive
20
When Group I metals react with non-metals, what colour are the salts formed?
all different colours
white
lilac
yellow
21
How was Mendeleeve's table changed after the discovery of protons, neutrons & electrons?
elements arranged as isotopes
elements aranged by similar properties
elements arranged by atomic number
elements arranged to the left of noble gases
22
Bromine + potassium iodide -->
potassium bromide & iodine
no reaction
23
What are the group I metals usually called?
Alkali Metals
Halogens
Transition Metals
Alkali Earth Metals
24
How do the chemical properties of the alkali metals change down the group?
reactivity decreases
reactivity increases
25
Which group of elements were not included at all in Mendeleeve's table?
alkali metals
halogens
noble gases
transition metals
26
Why was the discovery of gallium important?
Mendeleev had correctly predicted its properties
It was discovered by a Frenchman
it was the first metal to melt in the hand
Mendeleev discovered it
27
chlorine gas + potassium iodide -->
no reaction
potassium chloride & iodine
28
Why was Newlands' table of elements called "periodic"?
similar properties occured at regular intervals
His colleague suggested the name
It wasn't
They were published in periodic science journals
29
What is the name of the ions formed when halogens gain an electron?
halo ions
halide ions
halogen ions
holy ions
30
What are the products of the reaction of potassium with water?
lilac
KOH & hydrogen gas
NaOH and hydrogen gas
KOH and oxygen
31
Which halogen is this?
Chlorine
Bromine
Iodine
Fluorine
32
In "Rockin around the Christmas tree", what are they going to eat before caroling?
turkey
pumpkin pie
candy cane
pudding
33
Which of these reindeer names is NOT mentioned in
"Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer"
