---|---|---|---|---|
What are Democritus’s Theory
Believed in tiny, invisible particles make up everything, were called atomos.
|
What is a proton
Positive charge, subatomic particle that makes up the nucleus of an atom
|
Who is Mendeleev
Russian chemist who formed the first periodic table
|
What are Alkali metals
First classification in the periodic table, brittle and low melting point
|
What is a singularity
Very center of a black hole with infinite density
|
What is Dalton’s Atomic Theory
States that matter is composed of very small atoms that are the same but differ in size and mass
|
What is an electron
Negative charge, subatomic particle that circles around an atom
|
What is solitaire
What game gave Mendeleev inspiration for the organization of the periodic table
|
What are alkaline earth metals
Soft metals with near the left of the periodic table
|
What is a White Hole
Antithesis of a black (theoretical but can be mathematically proven)
|
What is Thomson Theory
suggested that atoms had negative charged electrons embedded in a positive sphere
|
What is a neutron
No charge, subatomic particle that makes up the nucleus of an atom
|
How did Mendeleev sort his table
Mass and similar properties
|
What is a halogen
Nonmetal that is very stable and almost un reactive
|
What is Newtonian Theory of Gravity
States that gravity and space and time are each separate forces that don’t interact with each other
|
What is Rutherford Theory
an atom was mostly empty space. Electrons moved around a small, positively charged nucleus in the center of the atom
|
What is a nucleus
Small, dense clump of subatomic particles at the center of an atom
|
How did Mendeleev predict elements
He left spaces open on his table where the difference between mass or properties was too great
|
What are the noble gases
Un reactive, most stable elements at the very right of the periodic table
|
What is Einstein’s Theory of Relativity
States that gravity bends space time and space/time is connected.
|
What is Aristotle’s Theory
Universe is composed of five base element, fire, earth, water, air, aether
|
What is are valence electrons
Electrons on the outer part of an atom
|
What is the original periodic table
Arrangement of elements by mass and properties
|
What are transition metals
Columns 3 to column 12
|
What is strange matter
Type of matter composed of one type of quark that may inhabit the center of neutron stars
