Atoms with full octets form stable elements

∙ 12y agoWhen you talk about how stable an atom is, you're reffering to the orbitals. If the electron orbitals are all filled, it is said to be stable. If the outer electron orbital is missing some electrons or has too many electrons, it will be more reactive because it wants to achieve that octet of electrons.

When elements combine to form compounds their properties do not change.?
False. Hydrogen and oxygen - both gases - combine to form water - a liquid.
Which class of elements have both the properties of metals and non metals?
Conducts heat and electricity very poorly.
How arephysical and chemical properties simeler?
They are both properties of materials that do not change and can be used to identify those materials.
Do the transition elements display metallic or non metallic properties?
The transition elements are metals. As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.
What are elements with properties of both metals and nonmetals?
Elements with properties of both metals and nonmetals are called metalloids. They are located (rather conveniently) on the "stairstep" on the Periodic Table that separates metals and nonmetals. The metalloids are as follows:SiliconGermaniumArsenicAntimonyTelluriumScientists also suspect polonium is a metalloid, but they can't be sure as polonium is hard to test (it's very radioactive!).
What are some properties of mixture?
Made of elements compounds, or both No change in oringinal properties of components Seperated by physical means Formed using any ratio of components
What are some properties of a mixture?
Made of elements compounds, or both No change in oringinal properties of components Seperated by physical means Formed using any ratio of components
When elements combine to form compounds their properties do not change.?
False. Hydrogen and oxygen - both gases - combine to form water - a liquid.
Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals?
Metalloids
Why do carbon dioxide and diamond both have different properties?
Different names, different elements, different properties.
Are noble gasses elements with metallic and non metallic properties?
No. Noble gasses are elements that rarely, if ever form chemical bonds. The elements with both metallic and nonmetallic properties are the metalloids.
What is classification for the elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
Metalloids Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals.
What elements have similar properties to Aluminum?
it is phineas and ferb
Is metalloids a type of element?
Yes, metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
Do atoms of copper and iron generally form stable bonds with transition elements?
Yes, atoms of copper and iron can generally form stable bonds with transition elements. Copper and iron are both transition elements themselves and can form stable bonds with other transition elements. The stability of the bonds will depend on factors such as the electronegativity and bonding properties of the specific elements involved.
Why do the properties of elements change when they are mixed in compounds?
The act of bonding repositions the electrons, which changes the base properties of the united molecule. It is for this reason, for example, that oxygen O2 has different properties than ozone O3 even though both compounds only have the element of oxygen.
Which class of elements have both the properties of metals and non metals?
Conducts heat and electricity very poorly.
