Periodic Table and Bonds Questions

1. The order of elements on the periodic table is based on

• The number of protons in the nucleus

• The electric charge of the nucleus

• The number of neutrons in the nucleus

• The number of electrons in the nucleus

2. Atoms of elements that are in the same group have the same

• Number of protons

• Number of neutrons

• Number of valence electrons

• Number of electrons

3. As you move from left to right across the periodic table

• The elements become less metallic

• The atomic mass of the elements decreases

• The number of neutrons of each element increases by two

• The elements become more metallic

4. The atomic number of each element

• Indicates the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

• Indicates the number of valence electrons

• Indicates the number of protons in the nucleus

• Indicates the number of isotopes of the element

5. A subatomic particle with a negative charge

• Proton

• Electron

• Neutron

• Quark
